We asked for tapas and were served one plate after another, until we told them we were full. After reading the reviews, we were scared of the bill, but then pleasantly surprised: CHF 110 for 2 people including multiple alcoholic beverages, 9 different plates and some leftovers are absolutely okay in our opinion!Staff did their best to speak our language and were attentive and friendly.

Great experience at the lovely tapas restaurant. Our server wouldn't let us over order. She stopped us when she thought we'd got enough.The food came fast, and was tasty with good portions. We had to put some tortilla in a take away container.Reasonably priced. I would definitely go back if I came back to the area.

A gem in Biel/Bienne. Unassuming from the street, as soon as you walk in you feel like you’re in a local Galician bar. It’s a totally different energy. It can be helpful to have a Spanish speaker with you as staff don’t speak much English/Deutsch/Francais. Food is excellent (pulpo gallega, patatas bravas, queso y jamon, and the bocadillos are highlights), beer is good, and they have a great Spanish red wine cellar.

Nice place with real spirit of Spain and Galicia. Interesting enough that people speak Spanish here by default (my Spanish is still way better than my German, especially Swiss, so that’s nice for me). Great food :-)Just that sangrilla was probably the most expensive I have ever had (26 CHF for 1 liter)
