Ciclo

This cute little restaurant is a hidden gem in Cadiz. I can’t express enough how delicious the food was. The tasting menu surprised us with every dish. The service was top. The waiter speaks very good English and he was super professional. Highly recommend this place.

We had a wonderful experience eating at the Ciclo. The food was absolutely delicious and in every aspect extraordinary. The service was outstanding. Our waiter Nicoló was extremely competent and friendly and guided us through every dish perfectly. The whole evening was unforgettable and we recommend this restaurant highly.

Sorry Luis… as your experience and talent as a top notch trained Michelin Star chef is much better than the food prepared at your Cicolo restaurant Cadiz. We were Very very disappointed from the food and very dissatisfied starting with the appetizer tuna fish that was not not even tartar as listed and tasted out of a can, the roasted pepper appetizer with small frozen shrimp and added tomatoes was not listed on the menu was mediocre at best. And finally the duck cannelloni’s was mildly decent with some flavors but the presentation needed a lot to desire as the presentation needed a lot to desire. Lastly, The service was mediocre at best where we were seated in the back room with nobody in the room at 9:15pm as the manager wanted to seat us next to the bathroom door entrance which we refused. The server never cleared or changed our plates between courses. Luis being trained as a Michelin star chef you need to see what you have and make the necessary changes for people who enjoy your possible inventive dishes and food that is suppose to be different and with great tastes and flavors as your menu was not even close to being acceptable. Our Priorat red bottle Of Cabernet wine and sparkling water was the best part of the meal. In closing, the reserved tables with reservations on them for the €65 euros per person had nicely decorated cloth napkins setup while the rest of the restaurant and us with a special reservation had cloth paper napkins. Plus it ceases to amaze me there are no hand towels or drying machines in the men or women’s bathrooms. We are proud foodies from the USA and live and travel in Spain who like good food, ambiance and service but are from San Francisco. We spend good money and enjoy great food, wine and dining as we would never recommend this restaurant nor return to it. Luis, we are Very disappointed and sorry to have to tell you in a review and share this poor dining experience food and menu review…!!

We had very high expectations because of the great recommendations Here and the listing on viamichelin. However, some dishes lacked intensity or raffinesse, which was especially disappointing since we went to contracena the day before where we payed considerably less for a more sound experience (although service at contrascena was "cold" and basic). Maybe we got "a bad day".

Very delicious food!
