I don’t know why we haven’t been to Restaurante el Risco before, but we’ll be returning! We joined some friends for Sunday lunch, who are regulars at the restaurant, after they had told us it was their favourite in Famara. It has an unprepossessing frontage, on the sandy, “back road” in Famara, and unfortunately the…
We needed to stop for lunch last week in Playa Blanca and we discovered Treat Café Bar, which opened in May. You won’t find televisions showing sport or all day breakfasts at Treat, but you will find great coffee (think Costa Coffee,) cocktails, healthy food, live entertainment in the afternoon and evening and a really…
If you are looking for somewhere special to have a fine dining experience we highly recommend the Kentia Gourmet Club in Puerto Del Carmen. It is situated in the old town area and has fabulous large glass windows which allow you to enjoy views of the sea. The venue is a restaurant, a cocktail bar…
It may seem a bit weird to be lusting after a Sunday roast dinner in Lanzarote, but many of our visitors still want their weekly fix of meat and veg at the weekend. We can’t imagine eating a full roast dinner during the hot summer months, fresh fish by the sea is our thing, but…
We’ve eaten at La Opera in Playa Honda a couple of times before, but hadn’t reviewed this restaurant. Our most recent trip was on the way to the airport before flying to the UK. La Opera have three types of set menu from which you can select a 3 course meal, the prices are Menu…
With the arrival of Spring the QuéMUAC Restaurant at the Castillo de San José is renewing their gastronomic offering. From the 23rd of March onwards their menu is extended and completed with a variety of light and fresh dishes, both meat and fish ones, with Canarian flavours, as well as an attrative and suggestive selection…
In my opinion the picturesque Charco de San Ginés, generally known as Charco san Gines, area of Arrecife is hard to beat for dining out in Lanzarote, it has a plethora of restaurants and a great vibe. This seawater lagoon in the centre of the capital city is littered with tapas bars & restaurants around…
Puerto del Carmen is full of great restaurants of all types, and you could eat out for every meal for a long period and never try them all! We’re doing our best, but it’s a lifetime’s work to report on every single one of them. But there are some restaurants which are worthy of second…
I’d heard good things about the Devon Restaurant and Bar and, being from the west country myself, I had been intending to give it a try. The opportunity arose when I won a steak dinner for two in a Monster Radio competition. The restaurant is a small, cosy family-run place on the front at Matagorda,…
We were asked by friends if we had reviewed the Antica Trattoria Italian restaurant on the Avenida in Puerto del Carmen, Lanzarote. When we replied no, not yet, we decided that a night out was in order. We booked a table for 8pm on a Friday night, the place was busy, there wasn’t an empty table…
