Birthday dinner

We had a great dinner for my birthday. The food was excellent and our server Luis P was attentive and friendly. Would recommend El Jardin during your stay in Cartagena.

My daughter loved the granadilla, on the last day they brought a granadilla bag for her togo.

Service is great, always someone ready to help!! The food is great. Service by the pool is not as good as it used to be, but still great.
