"Fui hace cinco días con mi familia y nos encantó. Muy buen servicio, los camareros muy amables, especialmente la chica joven. Estaba todo muy bueno. Sin duda de los mejores sitios que he probado en Sant Joan. Si os gusta la comida china, hacen gyozas, tallarines o arroz de la casa (mi favorito). YA lo he recomendado a todos mis amigos."

"Restaurante humilde pero con comida de gran calidad y económico. Los propietarios son muy amables y serviciales. El lugar es perfecto tanto para tapear como para comer bocadillos o platos combinados. Las jarras de cerveza son bastante grandes también! En general es un buen restaurante donde comer!"

"La patatas bravas no son bravas , son patatas cortadas en rodajas con allioli. Pedimos bocatas y bastante bien, a mejorar el queso de los bocadillos que son tranchetes. Los boquerones en vinagre estaban buenos, aunque algo duros."
