A fantastic place by Nissan with a laid back and friendly atmosphere. A nice selection of  drinks and fantastic tapas. If you choose “Zigges Val” (Zigges selection) you won’t leave hungry. Come early or be prepared to wait for a table, mostly very busy but we’ll worth the wait. You can enjoy a drink or two upstairs while waiting for a table.

Fantastic food. Ordered the “tapas bag” to do final preparations at home. Very good instructions and the food turned out amazing. Very nice packaging and the courses mixed well together, you won’t feel hungry for days after this (plenty to go around). Very nice staff and service when ordering was terrific.
Not very accessible if you are bound to a wheelchair though which knocks off a few points.
