Exceptional food in a beautiful square. Such a nice touch to finish the meal with mini frozen cocktails. We had the seafood paella which was delicious. Even the rice had a rich flavour from the fish without being overly fishy. Also a must have are the churros with a scrumptious chocolate sauce made fresh at the bar. Special thank you to Christian who was an excellent waiter

We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience! The food was incredibly delicious—so much so that we couldn’t resist ordering more. The staff was very thoughtful, kindly advising us not to order too much at once unless we were truly hungry, but every dish was simply too amazing to pass up! The warm and friendly atmosphere made us feel right at home, and if we could, we’d love to dine here every day during our stay. A heartfelt thank you to Lambert for your kindness and hospitality—you made our evening truly special!

The food was amazing - garlic prawns, octopus, cod fritters, gazpacho, wild boar stew. Service was incredible and very prompt, also so enthusiastic and helped us move tables when people were smoking stinky cigars nearby. Our server, Christian was super helpful and lovely, and gave us a free shot at the end!

The Glaciar Restaurant is a great place to visit. We went there with friends and had a wonderful experience. The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating. The staff is very friendly, and our waiter, Lambert, was especially helpful—he recommended the perfect wine for us. The paella isn’t very large, so it’s best to order one per person, but it was absolutely delicious. We tried both the seafood paella and the black rice paella, and they were fantastic!
