We chose this restaurant because of the good rating. However our experience is not all positive.
We ordered salmon tartare and got tuna tartare, the carpaccio de pulpo was drowned in its dressing and the croquettes were tasteless.
We did like the chuleton rubia meat at €45/kg but half of it was bone or grease so we paid for 3kg or €30/pp (it was more than enough) which is rather steep.
We chose a €15 wine but they came back and advised us a €30 bottle which scored 3.7 on Vivino at an average price of €4.8.
With a total bill of €258 for 5 we would have expected a little bit more.

We visited Ramon Pipi twice this year in June and September and were greeted as old friends.
The range and quality of dishes is still excellent. The many tuna dishes are some of the best quality in Zahara especially the Morillo.
The restaurant is moving into bigger premises next year and we wish the very well and will definitely be visiting in their new premises.

Reviewed By WorldTravelerMinus - Andalucia, Spain
We visited for lunch on Easter Sunday and were lucky to arrive early enough to get a table - soon the place was full, people were waiting and the phone kept ringing. Not surprising, given the quality of the food and the service. We will definitely eat here again.

This place will be super-crowded in high season, but don't pass it by. Try to get a place at the bar. Vegetarians can order the zucchini salad or the grilled artichokes. Seafood lovers can't go wrong with any of the assorted seafood tapas. Whatever you do, don't pass up dessert. The chef may come out to talk to you and he is very free with sharing his recipes.

Restaurante ubicado en el centro de Zahara de los Atunes. Cabaret pirata con cocina fusión y productos de la tierra, con el Atún Rojo de Almadraba como protagonista.
Reviewed By Joanne L
Love this restaurant, in the heart of the bustle with great food. Amazing Spanish classics with a twist... cooked to perfection and presented in a stunning way... perfect squid, beautiful steak with roast potatoes ( skin on), seared tuna with lots of delicate sauce and crunchy accompaniments.
They are not large servings, just right for ordering a few dishes.
Service was friendly and good , except dessert which a bit slow to arrive, as the restaurant was busy and it was forgotten.
Very good vibe. Lovely place to eat.
Hard to get a table, but will be glad if you do.
Overall, think this place is fantastic.

This was our worst eating experience in Zahara. The food we ordered was average where as everywhere else we ate was superb. Service was poor and abrupt. The bill was slammed down on the table by a man who then said "ready"? Such a shame...MoreSentimos que su experiencia en nuestro restaurante no fuese como esperaba. Un saludo.

This is the best restaurant i have been to. I have eaten there 3 times on my visits to Spain. Amazing service and food. Extremely homey feeling and always choose a la carte and allow the chef to choose for you. You will never be disappointed if you appreciate world class food.

Restaurante & Terraza. Las dos estrellas principales son el atun rojo de almadraba y la carne de retinto, una carne de vacuno de la zona. En este ultimo apartado el restaurante ha logrado varios premios en las rutas de la tapa que se celebran cada ano en Zahara. El estilo es de cocina creativa y destacan, ademas de los platos de atun y de retinto. Por la noche tambien sirven copas.

Even as a stranger, I was made to feel welcome. The staff really look after you, and while not oppressive, they certainly care and are there to help. The all have some English and have English mended.
Mots notable dishes: Beef Tataki ( I was skeptical but was lovely.) The Tuna tartar was especially good. I geeked out on violet ice cream-- something I'd never had before. I suspect the could to a great seafood meal also really enjoy spinach/bacon salad
