Great food and great service. From starters to dessert we cleared our plates. Goats chesse salad was amazing and duck medallion with orange sauce was perfectly cooked. We will definitely be back for dinner here again soon.

The food is absolutely amazing visited several times, sea-bass very tasty, beef stroganoff really delicious, fillet steak best I have had since we arrived. Tried lots of other restaurants since we arrived and this is our favourite. Staff so friendly and the cheesecake to delicious would highly recommend but you need to book a table always busy.

What a place. Looks small but has a big menu with proper comfort food. I had the Stroganoff which was unreal, and others had pork, ribs and chicken. All cleared their plates. Outstanding! Staff are really nice and attentive as well. Don't go here, we want to keep it for us

We were extremely lucky to get a table at this restaurant without booking and so pleased we went on the off chance. I had sea bass in garlic butter with prawns and hubby had duck with orange sauce, both dishes out of this world, followed by desserts to die for - tiramisu & toffee cheesecake. We will definitely be visiting this restaurant again.

Everything about this place is really solid. Excellent service, great food and the bonus was sitting next to the open kitchen and watching the hard work, stress and precision play out on front of you. Stroganoff was exceptional, chicken Kiev with cheese inside an unexpected delight. Book as it is rightly busy.

Best food we’ve had in Lanzarote! We were recommended this place and are so glad we visited. The service was fantastic, food was so fresh and absolutely delicious. They also very kindly catered for a vegan (we called a day before) and they prepared the most amazing food. Highly recommend a visit as you will have a fantastic time. Decor is also lovely.
