6/10Food was very average. Not enough flavors in anything. I didn’t love it and didn’t like the wine paring either. I don’t know what the hype and reviews are about. This was a complete miss for our family.

6.5/10We ordered mushroom rice and salmon ensaladilla for entrees, Langostino Canelon and Butter Entrecot (which costs extra) and a cheese platter and chocolate truffles for dessert. The starters where tasty, but they had one big issue, they have next to no protein, the rice had two small pieces of mushroom and the ensaladilla had almost no salmon. So what we got was really cream rice and potatoes with mayo. The mains were very small. The canelón was a double wrapped pasta with a bit of sauce and maybe one langostino inside. The entrecot was about 100 grams (and remember, they charge extra for this dish) and a bunch of fries you get from the supermarket frozen section. Again, a lot of carbs and very little protein. Finally dessert was ok, but once again it seems very limited. Cheese platter was 3 pieces of cheese with two tiny cubes of membrillo and the chocolate truffles where 3 small chocolates. Again, it was ok, but just ok. We had to go for more food afterwards.

6/10This restaurant is situated in a small shopping precinct a couple of roads back from the main front. It is quite large and when only a few diners felt lacking in atmosphere. The service was attentive but rather too quick for us. The translated English menu dad a few inaccuracies and google translating the Spanish would have been better. Only offered the set menu so can’t comment on range of choice.

9.5/10The food and service here was fantastic. Unfortunately we were there on a Monday night and it wasn't very busy - which is surprising because it is so good. We will be back whenever we revisit Santander. Great Value -Great Food - Great Service

9.5/10Everything was excellent. There was a small problem: we ordered rice as starter and we had a a different dish. We enjoyed it, anyway.

9.5/10An excellent high-end meal at a reasonable price ~27€/pp with extra wine. Great service. Good choices for each course. Everyone enjoyed their choices. The menu appropriately focuses on seafood and are generally modernized takes on classical dishes.

8.5/10The service was excellent - especially the waiter who explained our wines to us. The food was a bit of a mixed bag - very rich - the set menu with the paired wine was good value.

10/10Really lovely lunch and great value! Staff attentive without being over the top. On the English menu it wasn't explained that in addition to the fixed price menu, you could add two more glasses of wine ( total of 3, one fur each course) for an extra 6 euros. Luckily I had and understood the Spanish menu!

9.5/10Fantastic food, each dish was really well thought out. The tasting menu had several tempting options at each stage so it was hard to pick. Everything we had was excellent. The matched wines were good too and worth the additional charge. Would happily visit this restaurant again.

10/10The meal and service were fantastic. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. I chose the marinated chicken and the entrecôte from the daily menu. I did cut the fat off the entrecôte. No fat, no flavour. But I don’t eat it. The manager was very concerned that I didn’t like it. No such thing. The steak was cooked to perfection. Best food I’ve had since starting the Camino del Norte in Irun.

10/10The food at Querida Margarita is really good, and so is the service. The menu with wine to match each course is superb value for money. We have eaten here several times and have never been disappointed. Highly recommended.

8.5/10Nice place with lovely, welcoming staff. The food was quite nice and well presented but the wine pairing was disappointing. The wines were cheap and did little to compliment the meal. Red wine served with a rice dish (with mushroom and pork) was not ideal to begin with and then a Pinot Noir paired with ribs?? Better to charge a little more and put some real thought into the pairings and offer some decent wines. ;)

4/10Really can not understand this place having anything connected with the Michelin program as the food offered was very very poor. After ordering our food was delivered in around 45 seconds which instantly made me concerned at the preparation of the food. For starter we had the rice and squid along with the soup. The soup was ok but the rice and squid was completely over cooked. For main we had the cheeks and then pasta and prawns. Both over cooked and very heavy. Finally the desserts looked like something bought from a shop and placed onto the plate. The cream was from a can and the strawberries cut by a toddler in terms of presentation. Over all a very disappointing dinner. Cheap in terms of costs but would have much rather paid double to have a nice meal.

10/10It is a small and cosy restaurant. The atmosphere inside is just perfect, very quiet and relaxing. Everyone was really nice to us. The food was amazing, and the right amount (you pick two dishes and dessert from the menu). The option with 3 glasses of wine is totally worth it. Best place we found in Santander. I totally recommend it!
