My wife and I visited this restaurant for lunch. We had the following meals:
1.) Rabbit: Big portion, the quality was okay.
2.) Rib from beef: Tiny portion - quite cheeky.
We also had Sangria, which was expensive (15 € for 1 litre) and not very good.
The ambiance is cozy. The waiters were nice and friendly, joking, touting the sangria and bread as the best in all of Garachico, and telling the history of the restaurant and the dishes. Unfortunately, the dishes and the sangria could not quite keep up with the praise. In addition, the prices in this restaurant are unreasonably high.
My wife and I visited this restaurant for lunch.
After studying the menu, we decided to choose food from a board that, unlike the menu, did not show prices:
1.) "Rib from beef": After we only got a single small beef rib under this name in the previous restaurant, this time we got a huge tomahawk steak for about 36 €. This tasted delicious but the price was unexpected.
2.) Polvo: Good, but relatively expensive at around €17 - almost twice as expensive as the dishes we had previously seen on the menu.
Certainly a good restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. Based on our experience, however, we recommend clarifying the type and price of dishes outside the regular menu before ordering.

My wife and I visited this restaurant for lunch. we had the following dishes:
1.) Gambas al aiillo: Good
2.) Pescado freso: Very dry and overcooked
3.) Papas y mojo: Good
The fresh fish is not recommended. It was way too dry. We also recommend personally selecting the fish, asking its weight and checking the bill carefully. Our bill was definitely wrong and included twice 800g fish (for two people). Correct would have been either 400g twice or 800g once and even that might be too much if you look at the picture below.
