The food is nice and interesting. We liked our mains (turbot and lamb), the apple tart, and the bread service. It was enough food to feel full at the end. However, there were a few things that we didn’t love. The service is very proper and the servers seem occupied with table manners and synchronized serving etc., but it seemed like they were so busy trying to get everything “right” that they were not fully present. They move you through rooms during “the experience” like musical chairs, so you have a bunch of different servers during one meal for different things. It’s also very disappointing (borderline shocking for a fine dining restaurant) that our reservation asked us for our occasion (proposal celebration - we got engaged yesterday!) but there was zero acknowledgment. Not sure why they would ask for that info upfront and then totally ignore. Another weird thing was when we had an unexpected charge on the bill for us splitting an appetizer, the server asked us if there was anything he could do instead of just offering to waive the couple-euro fee. He did waive the fee in the end, but it was a surprising way to address the situation. The decor and ambiance reminded us of a cruise ship. It’s strangely brightly lit and the seating is all in open couches. Few windows. There’s a big console in the middle of the dining room that looks like a buffet table. There’s no sense that you’re on the beautiful island of Tenerife. It’s really, really quiet. It also wasn’t busy at all. We liked the food, but because of the high price and those drawbacks, would not come back.

The decor of the restaurant are simple yet cool and modern. The staff is really prepared, knowledgeable and nice. As soon as we arrived they introduced themselves to us and offered an aperitif as part of the experience (4 different dishes), we then moved to the main restaurant room to have dinner. We tried The Great Classics menu with wine pairing, if you love wine I really recommend to do the wine pairing. The wines were really unique compared to other michelin star restaurants we have tried. Once we finished our menu, we were invited to seat back in the room where we had the first aperitif and they presented us the sweet cart called the petite four, you can choose few sweets directly from there, I loved it!

It was a quiet Thursday evening on a first seating..and we had the most spectacular service! We were warmly welcomed by the beautiful hostess, and were seated at the salon for the starters. We also got a great recommendation from the sommelier. After which, we were led into the main dining area. Very clean and minimalistic, scandic design which pops from the salmon pink architecture of the resort. The staff were absolutely amazing (Bryan and Dennis *?*) who made sure we were looked after. It felt like 30 minutes even though we sat there for 2 hours! The presentation was terrific and the staff showed genuine care about our entire experience ❤️ I think it's important to note that; living in CPH, we have great restaurants & food all over and it's quite hard to experience something memorable. As for the food, take a look 🤤💕🥂 try it and be impressed! Through out the experience, a cart of curated cheese and bread is rolled out. The foie gras and tuna tartar was my absolute favorite and the Millefeuille with smoked eel was sooo creative! The surprise for me was the lukewarm vegetables, they made me enjoy my greens 💚 not really big on desserts but the apple tart was superb! They also surprised me with a chocolate mousse cake in the massive birthday cake with the candle!

We had an amazing dinner experience. The place is spacious so that you don’t feel bothered by other guests. The service was excellent and the waiters made jokes which made the whole ambience very joyful and not stiff or too serious. The food obviously was great and the wine pairing excellent. Having been to many Michelin star restaurants I can clearly say that here you get good value for money. We will come again :) thank you for the great evening!

Ok so not what I was expecting from a 2 star Michelin restaurant. The food is very good but certainly not any better than some of the other food we had in Tenerife or the Ritz Carlton Abama and for the price it only gets a 3 star rating on here for me . The decor is very modern but the lighting is not very ambient and quite a harsh white clinical lighting . Very odd. The service was not particularly great and as the restaurant got more busy the waiters and waitresses got overwhelmed . I heard multiple customer complaining that they did not get offered drinks and drinks were not topped up. We had an open bottle of water that we could not reach and the waiters didn’t once come and refill. These are service basics that you get in non Michelin restaurants. Some of the food was great such as a bread made from puff pastry which I would love to have again but nothing else really stood out . Food however looked very artistic and beautifully presented.

This was my first 2 star Michelin experience and albeit I'm not normally a fan of fine dining, we decided to treat ourselves. For me, the food was probably not to my personal taste but this was so much more than just food. This was an experience. One I won't forget. The staff were incredible, I put 4 stars but it's more like 4.5, bar a few tiny tiny issues they were knowledgeable, attentive, friendly and warm and quick like lightening considering they had quite a few tables to tend to at a high level of service. The food looked and was presented incredibly well. I will admit my taste is more steak and potatoes than haute cuisine but it was so interesting to see how everything was presented and you could tell the amount of work gone into these dishes was exceptional The restaurant itself has a fabulous relaxed chic neutral atmosphere. The wine suggested by our waiter was delicious and the whole experience from aperitif to petit four at the end was divine. The head chef presents himself at each table to check how the experience is. At nearly €650 plus tip for 2, this was all about the experience for me. Well done.

This restaurant is one of my favorites. The food is prepared with great care and attention to detail, and the presentation, taste, service, and ambiance are all excellent. I especially love the way the chef uses seasonal ingredients to create innovative and delicious dishes. The staff is also very knowledgeable and attentive, and they make the dining experience truly special. Thank you to Chef Martin Berasategui and his chef Erlantz Gorostiza and the team for such a wonderful experience.

Fabulous experience and a must if you can afford it! No wonder they earned 2 stars as the gastronomic experience was out of this world, service and staff is a top notch! The presentation was absolutely beautiful, and wine pairing is recommended! Set beautifully in Ritz Carlton, a very romantic, high class experience you’ll want to repeat if your pocket can afford it!
