We went on Saturday, four friends. I'm not one to usually leave reviews, but it was truly embarrassing. We arrived at 9:00 PM and by 10:15 PM, our dishes still hadn't been served, and at 10:20 PM, we were told the kitchen was closing. Two of us left the pasta untouched because it was incompatible with human digestion, and the other two (two pockets of rice with salmon, let's just say it was edible). I understand that due to the location they have a lot of traffic, but if you want to eat or have dinner well, I absolutely do not recommend it.

I love the location. Overlooking the sea. I really like the decor of the place. The staff's attention is very pleasant and friendly. The atmosphere is relaxed and beautiful. The food is delicious. And they always bring you something extra that surprises you. For example, a café au lait, and they bring a small glass with a splash of Bailey and cream in case you want 🥰 Highly recommended. Good value for money. Sunday menu €25 + drink. Generous portions and very well presented. I will return.

We had an amazing brunch here! The coffee was perfect, the freshly squeezed orange juice was delicious, and the food was superb. Highly recommend the baguette with brie and walnuts (top tip: add chicken, it’s mind-blowing!). We were served by a lovely young lad, unfortunately didn’t catch his name, but he was so friendly and attentive. The views are gorgeous, and we really appreciated being able to relax without any pressure to vacate the table.

The food was really good. We are four friends who ordered the daily menu, and we found the price to be reasonable. The food was delicious, but the service was quite slow. However, the waiters were very attentive, even though the food service took a long time.

The food was absolutely delicious. The waitstaff were very attentive throughout our meal. We ordered the vitello and the sirloin, both of which were of excellent quality. The views are stunning, and the terrace is a perfect choice. Without a doubt, it's a great place to dine in Altea. 👌

A restaurant with a very good price-quality ratio. The only thing I don't like is that if you order a Coca-Cola, they serve it in a small size, which is a detail I don't appreciate. However, that won't stop us from coming back. Highly recommended for dinner in Altea.

We saw this restaurant on the Altea paseo, it looked more elegant than all the others, it was absolutely beautiful. The staff were very friendly. We only wanted a drink but when we saw their food coming from the kitchen we just had to eat there, it was fantasti, you must try it if you visit Altea. The inside is very tastefully decorated. Enjoy my video.

OMG LaCena by Nola food was unbelievable. We came to Altea as we heard so many great things about the area. We saw this restaurant on the sea front and loved the interior. Staff were very friendly. We ended up doing the Mix & Match which was a 3 course meal for 24.95 euros. The food was perfection. I 100% recommend this restaurant. Was a great vibe and a great atmosphere listening to live music and sitting by the sea which is what we wanted.

Literally perfect. I had the burgundy burger. Perfect. My dad had the duck, he said it was moist, flavoursome and tender. My mum had the Surf & Turf. It was medium-rare and soft, the prawns were big, fresh and crunchy. The staff are super friendly and helpful. It is the perfect location for a night out, as you can see the seaside and sunset at night. We will definitely be coming to this amazing spot soon.
