You’ll find typical island dishes including rabbit and lamb chops, alongside tapas options like croquettes and fried cheese. The portions tend to be generous, fitting for a leisurely lunch or early dinner where the focus is on plate and view rather than rushing through the meal.

Since it attracts a steady flow around peak hours, booking ahead in high season is advisable.

A great place by the sea. Fantastic views. Service was quick and efficient and the food was well made and presented. Sizeable portions and the waiter explained what my husband had ordered in terms of the sauce. We enjoyed the experience and would recommend it.

We visited twice for lunch during our weeks holiday. My wife had sardines on both occasions and I had sardines and Spanish omelette. We really enjoyed everything we ate. The location is lovely, overlooking the sea. Lunchtime was very busy (11 March) so would advise booking. Service could come with a bit more of a smile but overall, highly recommend

Had heard about this restaurant before but first time visiting. So pleased we did. Absolutely stunning location with amazing sea views. Menu is varied but predominantly seafood based. And when you have the views which we were greeted with at the bottom of the stairs, then it’s only proper to have seafood. There were 4 of us, service was the best we had during our holiday. The two waitress’ looked after us effortlessly and everything came promptly. The food was presented simply but let the ingredients do the talking - full of flavour. Extremely reasonably priced. Only negative was that we are going home tomorrow so missing on another visit this holiday. Definitely recommend and will 100% be visiting again on our next visit to the island.

Booked a table for tonight as this was an excellent Spanish restaurant with amazing views over the beach/ sea. We had the mixed kebab and tuna steak which were both excellent. So good we went back again for the tuna and also a white fish with a mushroom sauce which again both delicious…Great service tonight as always.
