Great atmosphere, great food, great service in this family run restaurant away from the traditional tourist trap spots. Food is really well presented and delicious. We the chicken croquets and calamari for starter, and spaghetti carbonara and fillet of the day. Cooked to perfection and the taste is unreal. Will be back again before we go home.

We celebrate my daughter's birthday there and we couldn't choose any better place!! The food was amazing, fresh seafood and very tasty handmade pasta. The restaurant is very cozy and the service was very good, friendly and kind. I recommend 100%.

This was an absolutely excellent find. In the most random place literally a 2 minute walk from our apartment. The tapas and regular mains were excellent. I’ve eaten a lot of tapas at some really good and quite expensive places around the UK and Spain…..this was right up there. Quality and price was amazing, the table wear was lovely and suited to the food and the view was glorious. The staff were so so friendly and helpful and it was hands down the cheapest meal and by far best meal of our entire week. Please please please, give Your money, time and love to this beautifully local restaurant and stay away from the expensive (mostly rubbish) chain restaurants. 100/10 for adults and children

Great little family run restaurant. Fantastic food. The home made pasta in particular was excellent; our compliments to the chef. Polite suggestion: perhaps another waiter will be helpful at busy times; it is clear that your restaurant will do very well! All the very best.

The food was incredible. Definitely the best I’ve had in Tenerife. Great for dinner :). Food was great all round and the wine is lovely too. Staff is so nice.

The most charming place! The food is incredibly fresh — all the pasta is made from scratch, and the meat is simply amazing. My better half had a genuine carbonara straight from the heart of Italy, while I indulged in the most delicious burger ever. Highly recommend it! The place is owned by a wonderful Italian couple, and the incredibly kind lady even adjusted the dish to suit our taste by swapping the sides. I almost forgot — we received delicious treats on the house. Vodka caramel is divine! You have to try it! I really can’t recommend this place enough!

Wow. Just… wow This Italian restaurant served the most gorgeous beef steak I've had this year. So tender & soft, it literally melted. And the Aperol Spritz? Perfectly served, overflowing the glass just right! Haven't had this perfect meat experience for so long in Tenerife! Really hope the quality stays this amazing over time. Go dine there! Highly recommend!

Stumbled across this little gem this week & it was so good we went back for our anniversary. The tapas is beautiful - the garlic prawns & tiramisu were amazing! & would recommend the house wine. The owner & her husband have done a really good job of making everyone feel welcome & the actual restaurant is beautifully decorated. We would highly recommend
