This place was different. It's set in the old capital, teguise. (Parking is down the hill a bit to the left). We were served by a super adorable waitress who was efficient, friendly and patient at the same time. Cute ambience of low light lit place. Everything was amazing value, large portion and delicious. Out of the white wines, try bermejo from the island. Complex with minerality. Not as much acidity as sancerrre or Sauvignon Blanc. The best tapa was bruschetta with iberico ham and tomatoes - the best bruschetta I had in my life. Soft but slightly toasted bread with big chunks of tomato and iberico ham. Divine! SOLID: sweet potato cakes with coriander, golfo and smoked cheese. Soft and sweet. Crunchy ok the outside. Definitely worth trying it. Padron pepper was also great, not too soggy full of flavor. SKIP: marinated octopus salad - a bit on the fishy side. Wasn't a huge fan.

I had a starter and a main, both of which were spectacular. The others in the group (of 11) all enjoyed their food, with the exception of a pancake for dessert which apparently wasn't great. We were all impressed with the service, two and sometimes three waiters (one, as the main waiter, made conversation and ensured we were happy at all times); and the freebies, which included fresh cheese & cured ham with warm bread for starters, and a variety of schnapps choices to finish. The above is why I'm giving the place 5 stars. It could be said that the ambience isn't greatly inspiring, and the place is small-ish, but I feel they deserve a 5-star rating nonetheless.

But I think the pizzas are a better choice from their menu, I had one on our second visit. The staff were probably the nicest, friendliest and most genuine too, of our whole trip.

The coffee was excellent, which is not surprising for an Italian restaurant. Recommended.

La Gondola is situated on the seafront of Playa Blanca, just along from the harbour. There are many…read morerestaurants along this stretch of promenade mostly catering for the British market with steaks, pizzas, burgers etc. La Gondola is similar in style but has a slightly more refined menu with more of an emphasis on Italian dishes. I ate at several restaurants here during my holiday and this is the only one I can remember the name of because it was the best of the bunch. A charming waiter made us feel very welcome and after a simple garlic bread starter my main course of canneloni was excellent, nicely presented and with a real depth of flavour. My dining companions both opted for steak, one with pepper sauce and one with gorgonzola sauce, big juicy steaks arrived cooked to perfection and were both given the thumbs up. None of the restaurants along this stretch of the promenade could be viewed as being particularly special but this one was undoubtedly the best of the bunch that I tried - and it is a lovely location to sit outside and enjoy a meal whilst watching the world go by.

I'm surprised this place has no Yelp reviews yet - I happened to pass by it many times and read…read moreinto it on Tripadvisor. I felt like this was the closest to Spanish island authenticity you could get. While the touristy "English" options likely, and probably suck, their highlights are their tapas wheels. They have meat tapas wheels, fish tapas wheels, meat + fish tapas wheels, potato + sauce tapas wheels, and a vegetarian tapas wheel. So many options! I think the winner, and the one that I selected on my first night, was the mixed choose-your-own-tapas wheel. For a little under €12, you can choose 5 tapas dishes from a list, or pick 4 tapas + garlic prawns. I opted for the latter. It comes out on a literal wheel (ie. Lazy Susan) with segments for each dish. I still get confused on the difference between shrimp and prawns. I thought prawns were bigger, but these shrimp were typical sized. This was delicious, the garlic oil they were swimming in was so wonderfully garlicky. I, being a fool, tried this first and promptly burnt the tip of my tongue. For the 4 others, I chose: Canarian potatoes, chorizo, fried Lanzarote cheese with fig jam, and the chicken paella. The Canarian potatoes are essentially plain, baked baby potatoes that are accompanied by 2 killer sauces, 1 green and the other red. These are called mojo, and I strongly favored the green one which is apparently made with avocado (or so my Spanish understood...). The chorizo was pretty good, but not overly spicy and swimming in grease. The fried cheese was stellar with fig jam, but make sure you eat while hot otherwise it cools down and gets all congealy-cheese-like. Paella was okay, chicken and some clumps of rice were a bit dry. I also had a whole bottle of tempranillo, seeing as it was so cheap. When I asked for la cuenta (the check), the server came back with a shot of banana liqueur. I think everyone gets it - does drown out the garlic party going on in my mouth. Overall, I would definitely check this place out for the tapas - I'll be back more times to update with my favorites. I'm giving it 5* because out of all the patrons, there was just 1 guy taking orders and another lady delivering drinks/orders. Very impressive given how hard they were bolting around.

It was meant to be in a brioche bun but came in something resembling a washing up sponge. Then meat was grey and greasy. My partner got a smattering of chips, I got a few more. The chips were good. We only had water, a starter and a main course. The cost of which was what I would expect to pay in London or New York for a far better lunch.

The cheerful, friendly and efficient Irish waitress who looked after us was very helpful with menu suggestions, allowing us to chop and change various dishes with ease. The food served was delicious and very obviously freshly prepared for us. I feel I must have had the most delicious cod fillet ever ...it was encased in the lightest but crispiest peroni batter, so thin it was almost translucent - I don't know how they managed it! This was served with crispy potato wedges, fresh tartar sauce and a small side salad. My two companions each choose the same - prawn and avocado salad, which arrived in huge bowls with tons of salad items. We were also given a little basket of warm crusty bread and real butter! Will definitely be back very soon!
