"Exceptional venue hosted by some of Santander’s top restaurant talent, so expect a warm welcome. Some of the freshest ingredients I have seen in a while and all served open galley so you know this team know there craft. Which can also be whitnessed with every delicious mouthful.. If you can’t decide on one of the extensive list of fish they offer.. then try the Solomillo de Tomate Con Queso Fresco a must along with their signature Rabas de Peludin all enjoyed with a tall glass of their chilled Vermut “Heaven” .. and I didn’t even mention all this set within the confines the tastefully restored Caseta de Bombas sat in the Dock of Gamazo overlooking the bay of Santander.. 10/10 a must visits restaurant."

"I recently dined at this restaurant, and I was thoroughly impressed. The location is superb, and the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, creating a pleasant atmosphere. The bread they served was delicious, and the food was equally delightful. They offer a great variety of wines, which is a bonus for wine enthusiasts. I highly recommend this restaurant for a fantastic dining experience."

"A great, amazing restaurant that is located in a historical place where they used to repair ships and submarines! The food was delicious and cooked perfectly, it has an open kitchen so it's very interesting to watch the cooking process. The atmosphere was calm and comfy, the staff was friendly and helpful. I don't really understand why this place has such a low star rating."
