Chanced on this newly opened restaurant when on a day trip with friends as previous correspondent says it does not look special from the outside but the food is surprisingly good and the inside decor is quirky and modern.We all had the nine euro menu del dia opting for starters of pasta carbonara and a Caesar salad followed by chicken curry (thinly sliced chicken breast with a curry sauce drizzle served with what appeared to be thinly sliced fried potatoes), and merluza fish with the same potatoes- delicious.The best was reserved till last - exquisite chocolate melt in the middle sponge puddings with ice cream .All served on trendy slates by attentive staff.All this with a glass of wine each.Thank you so much for visiting us its a pleasure read this kind of opinion.We hope see you in a near future to enjoy our plates and tapas.Thank you again!

Had small toast with cheese and another with smoked salmon, both OK, nothing specialthen we had the "Pulpo La Gavacha" (octopus), which was not cheep for a tapa (12 â¬), but we didn't find it enything special. The best we had was the eggplant lasagna which was really nice. Overall not bad but we had better tapa restaurants in Murcia

The restaurant is located inside a shopping center downtown. The decoration is nice, the atmosphere is charming, the staff are friendly and the food is a bit different. I especially liked the wines they had and the waiter indications. We had a nice lunch for 20 ⬠per person, drinks and desserts included. Desserts were not very exciting, though.

Nexo Restaurant Fusion combines traditional food, especially Mediterranean food, with avant-garde food through new methods of preparation, new Asian sauces and the experimental touch of our chef

We went for a quiet dinner for two on a Thursday night and were surprised that there were free tables as it had been highly recommended. The food and service were both excellent. Octopus was spectacular, decent salad, some good 'croquetas' and a couple of other things (all good) plus decent Ribera del Duero to accompany. Will definitely be back.Muchas gracias por su opinión.

The service was spot on. We got served by the owner of the restaurant, friendly guy who would recommend dishes from the menu, as we had no clue what to order because it was in Spanish. The food was amazing, really reminded me of my grandmothers cooking can't say a bad word about anything. And the vodka shots before the meal are great. Truely a high class Russian restaurant. Would definitely recommend this place, if u never tried Russian kitchen before. Or if u did. You will not be disappointed with anything And it's not expensive. We paid about â¬45 for 2 people. And left the restaurant so full. Thank you Sergey for your great hospitality.

You really need to know this restaurant. It is outside the centre of Murcia so if you stay in de centre I advice a taxi. The atmosphere in the restaurant is a bit industrial but cosy. The food is very original and the quality is great. In my opinion this restaurant is on the edge to be star ranked...Dear Koen,Thank you very much for your wonderful review regarding your experience at Local de Ensayo. Positive reviews like this will always encourage us to do more and more to make our clients enjoy the experience.We hope to see you soon again.Best regards,Local de Ensayo.
