"Coming from Greece and being very keen and frequent seafood eaters, we possess the ability to distinguish good seafood and this is an excellent place for those who give attention to what really matters. That is, fresh materials, authentic non-pretentious atmosphere and friendly and efficient service. The place is family run with Fernando himself being at the forefront of overlooking things. Fernando’s personal care together with the rest of the family’s effort is truly reflected on the standard and quality of the food and the service. The family also owns a sizable fishing boat which gives them a truly invaluable advantage. That of controlling the quality and freshness of their prime materials. We discovered this place and all the background once we were taken there by very good local friends, Joana and Sergi, who happen to know the place and Fernando. Our friends are equally passionate about good top-quality food. The restaurant itself is simple, contemporary and very well kept. It’s authenticity stems from the fact that it is preferred by the locals, another sign of its quality. The atmosphere is relaxed and at times on the noisy side, as locals tend to get excited over good company and food. We started our meal with the traditional bread, mashed fresh tomato and garlic olive-oil sauce, which come complimentary and they were fresh and delicious. Our standard local salad was also very fresh and tasty. There were four of us, myself, my wife and our Spanish friends and we wanted to have the opportunity to taste several things. We therefore shared numerous dishes. We started off with fried calamari, which were very, very tasty and golden crispy fried. We moved on to steamed mussels which again were very fresh, full inside and very nicely cooked in their natural juices, lemon and some onion. Absolutely delicious!!! The third dish was “Gamba de Denia”, that is, Denian red shrimps. These rank top among shrimps across restaurants and are renowned for their taste. Most importantly, the ones we had were correctly cooked, grilled with care ensuring that they remained moist and succulent. They were simply heavenly!!! Our meal continued with grilled langoustines cut across in half and therefore easier to eat. I wish I could convey the smell and the taste. We were nearly in tears of pleasure by then, but the enjoyment was far from over!!! The langoustines gave their turn to two small sized lobsters, which were alive while we were choosing our fish for the main course. The smell, the taste and the texture reflected freshness but also a high degree of respect and knowledge, on how you truly need to handle this prime seafood material. We thought that the gastronomic delight would climax with the fish we ordered as a main dish but we were totally wrong. The fish was indeed superb in quality and taste. Fernando was all this time coming by our table to see if everything was ok and expressed real interest in ensuring we were comfortable with the food. Yet what I found really striking, was the fact that when our fish was cooked and ready, Fernando cleaned the bones and served it himself. I know this is normal and happens in many fish restaurants and even by owners. Yet what really made the difference to me, was Fernando’s concentration, love and commitment, while cleaning the fish. This was indeed striking, as you could easily see that this was a person who knew well the anatomy of every fish and most importantly, this was a person who truly loved his job!!! I shall refrain from describing the fish’s taste as you might think I might be exaggerating. But far from that, the taste was simply divine. We were almost in tears of joy when the homemade mango sorbet landed on our table. Can’t say enough about its taste and texture. It was just the right thing to take away the seafood taste from our pallets. And by the time we thought that was it, there can’t be more, four champagne glasses with a dark red liquid came to our table. Just one sip was enough to appreciate the age and delicate taste of this magnificent unique wine. A 20+ years desert wine, a Pedro Ximenez Tradicion from Jerez. Simply indescribable!!! You have to definitely try it. I shall end my description of this experience here. I shall only tell you that we asked to see Fernando and as he approached our table, we stood up, we raised our glasses, took a sip and we applauded him for such a fantastic seafood gastronomic experience we had. We of course did not miss the opportunity to take pictures with him. The bill came and it was way too logical for the type of food and the joy we had. We are definitely going to remember this meal for years and we definitely are going to come back to Denia and to the Fernando restaurant. It is indeed a top-notch seafood eatery."

Tanya
Fab spot on the beach, smart but still casual, wonderful food, lovely service and good wine. Had our wedding anniversary lunch here, and really enjoyed it. Not too many tourists, lots of locals.
Jorge
If we go that area, we almost always stop at this restaurant. except why it lacks a terrace, it has large dining rooms, a decent kitchen, a friendly and effective service. the day dish from one Sunday to 17 €. passable.
Lucía
Me quedé aquí una noche durante el Camino del Norte. La habitación muy amplia y cómoda.La comida casera y abundante y bien de precio. El dueño no puede ser más amable y está pendiente de todos sus clientes. Si paso por ahí alguna vez sin duda repetiré.

Fantastic restaurant with great service and super fresh seafood. I think it is one of the best in Dénia for sure. Parking is easy just outside the restaurant and there is seating inside and outside. If you are a seafood lover then this is the place to be!

Queríamos pedir 3 arroces y nos dijeron que se demorarían mucho, rápido nos ofrecieron los pescados y mariscos (claramente se venía que es lo que les interesaba) dado que pedimos 2 y tardaron un tiempo normal. Primero nos trajeron la fidegua de Fua y de sabor muy rica pero estaba pasada, mientras esperábamos el siguiente arroz, 2 veces ya nos estaban dando la carta de postres... y les decíamos a los camareros que nos faltaba otro arroz. El arroz caldoso y igual, también estaba pasado y le faltaba un poco de sabor. Los postre carísimos, un sorbete 8€. Precio calidad caro.

the truth is that it is a very nice place, where we are usually going to eat, but I think the detail of the bread in our last visit deserves a comment. Although we ate very well, a rice with a band, a cue and a salad, they brought us 3 biscuits with tomato sauce and alioli, something scarce, that loaded 6,60 euros, and one of the cookies had been visibly burned. the truth is that we were talking and we did not react immediately. personally, I was surprised that in such a correct place they simply served us in that state (knowing, also, that they charge it to 2,20 euros the bag.) otherwise, as I said, the very good food and the kind and correct treatment.
