    We went there for the first time. The food, service and ambiance was first class. Everything was delicious. They only use Extra Virgin Olive Oil and duck fat. No seed oils. I highly recommend we visit this area 4 times a year and this will be a stop on every visit.

    Jan 10 was their inaugural evening and I must say the food, ambiance, and the staff were great and most of all very well trained. The food choices and portions were perfect, flavors delightfully unique, and surrounding decor was like a Hollywood movie. Angelo, our waiter couldn’t have been more pleasurable and knowledgeable. Bernard was funny and engaging and efficient. Eduard our host was most welcoming and checked in with us just enough to be sure our every desire was met. As yachters wintering in Ft Lauderdale, we will be certain to visit Sotogrande again.
