TL;DR
Our waiter was very friendly and talked us through many of the dishes and their sauces, made good and informed recommendations and comfortably explained the wine list. Our food was 10/10 and was thoroughly enjoyed by the whole party. We would recommend eating here to anyone and everyone and would, if we had more time in Tenerife, eat here again.
Full review:
Our waiter, Jens, was delightful the entire night – explained the wine list with enthusiasm and recommended certain dishes with certain wines; had the whole party’s undivided attention when discussing the specials due again to his enthusiasm and breadth of knowledge; when deciding on our food, Jens was more than happy to break down individual dishes, sauces, flavours and even recommend dishes previously not considered; as a picky eater, I was edging toward a basic margarita pizza but was encouraged to make a specific request for pasta. We were all very pleased to hear that every pasta sauce is made from scratch for each individual dish, which gave us confidence that our whole order would be made with care. Jens took very good care of us during our meal, which improved our whole experience of the restaurant. He is funny, amicable and conversational as well as being well-informed as to the dishes on the menu, the day’s specials and the wine list. Jens’ enthusiasm and menu advice helped us with a number of the dishes we ordered and he assured us we would have plenty of food, given the portion sizes (which we absolutely did)
Now, on to the food itself:
Chicken liver pate (special) was absolutely gorgeous – very rich flavour and came with fried bread, one of the better pate dishes I’ve ever had. The party absolutely raved about the Thai curry prawns, not a single prawn was leftover. Mussels in a blue cheese sauce were devoured, with one announcing “that sauce could be its own soup” – our waiter recommended this dish personally, telling us that the blue cheese sauce, while unorthodox, would’ve been a shame to miss. He was correct. Main courses were just as good – my custom order of a rigatoni pomadoro was damn good – rich tomatoey sauce and perfectly cooked pasta. All our main dishes were absolutely wonderful and were thoroughly enjoyed. I would absolutely recommend eating here and if we were staying in Tenerife longer, we would surely eat here again.

Duck as a starter and Octopus (a special) and a pasta as a main. Very good recommendation from the chef and the result was superior. The best in the area, so far.

Great food and service at this restaurant last night. Reasonable prices. Attentive staff, just have to make sure they understand you want wedges not veggies, but that was my accent at fault. Steak with goats cheese was beautiful.

Absolutely amazing food, my mum has sea bass and when she was eating she found only one singular bone compared to other times on other restaurants where she’s found loads. I had the Veggie Tortellini and it was just divine. The kitchen staff is all Italian and it is shown in the quality of the food clearly all made from scratch. It also has options for pizzas without mozzarella, perfect for someone lactose intolerant.
The staff were absolutely delightful and their host/main waiter was just an absolute star. Would recommend to anyone possible and will definitely come again

Best meals we had out in the area we stayed. Staff so welcoming and the seafood paella was soo good and well presented. Cocktail were hit too and all reasonably priced too. Visited multiple time and will definitely be going back when we return another year!!

Absolutely loved the food!! Pizzas were great and the tuna was excellent. I especially recommend the Tuna and Garlic Prawns. Highly loving the German server/(owner?), he has great humour. We had a starter and a big main. This was about 30-40€ the person.
Tip: perhaps heater when it’s colder for outside and the initial ambiance from the outside is not that attractive. Would change the initial look.
