Situation might be different if the place is full. Great food and specially presentation of it was amazing. Didn't expect this kind place which why... More

This place gives a sense of authenticity, a rare feeling in Maspalomas! My wife had a simple roasted rabbit yet very tasty. I took a merluzza zarzuela style, presented in a very appealing way. We had started with morcilla with papaya jam and fried calamari with a coriander mojo, both Canarian rooted. Very warm welcome, the waiter recommended an excellent... More

Yes, the place is not handy as it is a bit far from the center but going by taxi it costs max 4 euro from the Yumbo and definitely it is well worth it! The food is excellent, the price adequate and most importantly the service is truly impeccable: professional, warm, discreet and multilingual. Can't wait to go back!

I went to this restaurant to try modern Canarian cuisine in the last night of my holiday trip to Playa del Inglés. It was just fantastic! Excellent food quality and service while trying food from Gran Canaria! Tiny problem: the restaurant is not close to the centre of the town so you might need to get a taxi to go... More

It was my friend's birthday and I have to say it was a incredible night. I have never visited a better restaurant in the south of Gran Canaria. Very good food, the best waiters and the atmosphere invite you to have a the best night with your family or friends. I think it's a very romantic place ;)

We visited this restaurant based on the Tripadvisor reviews. It is not altogether straightforward to find but is well worth the effort. We were more than satisfied and this place ranks among our 'top three' in the area. There is simply nothing we can think of to criticize. The starters (Black Teror pudding and fried cheese with 'pimientos') were both... More
