We started the evening with a great bottle of Canarian white wine!
For start, we ordered a serving of bread and butter (I had to take a picture - this small serving of butter was additionally 3€). The bread seemed to be rebaked in individual slices, resulting in a dry crust. The salted butter was missing some salt in my opinion.
Unfortunately, the bread and butter arrived after the starters - I hoped it would arrive much more earlier.
The amuse-gueule was a melon with decoration - quite fun to eat and on the sour-sweet side.
For starters, we had the onion soup, the carpaccio as well as the empanadilla. The empanadilla was great, the sriracha mayonnaise fitted quite well. The meat filling was very flavorful and rich.
The onion soup was great! Nothing else than what you expect.
The carpaccio was also good - however the truffle cream was used very generously. As I am not a fan of truffle (and it was not mentioned on the menu) this was not the best case for me.
The main course was the Bacalao, which was of course very deeply (and nicely) seasoned and was served with a very delicious sauce. I nice side dish would have been a great addition.
The steak was ordered medium and medium well (we shared the order). What we received was far in the rare section. Luckily, the meat was very great quality and had phenomenal taste, so we enjoyed it anyways.
However, we consulted the waitress afterwards to check with her that the doneness of the steak was too far off from what we ordered and that next time they might want to pay attention to what the guest ordered. Her answer was that „unfortunately, everyone in Spain eats the steak rare, so we serve it that way“. This answer was not what I expected, as we were specifically asked how we want the steak cooked…
To finish off, we had the chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream and raspberry crisp.
The lava cake was phenomenal. The ice cream was obviously store-bought, but good quality.
All in all, the quality of food is great. The flavour was sometimes not what I imagined and personally didn’t hit my taste 100%.
However, I would still recommend to try the restaurant as they deliver a high level of food on a reasonable price level.
