Casa Osmunda

Fine dining at its best. Octopus with purple potato was super tasty. We normally eat our salad along the main course so we asked to have it served together. We drank wine by a glass and the red was great. A teenager with a need for proteins ordered double chicken nuggets and couldn't eat everything. If you want to get fed when eating, don't take ravioli. The portion of 4, even 6 is laughable, unless you eat as a little bird. Service was extremely friendly and all spoke English. You should get a reservation unless you want to dine in a beautiful dungeon ;-)

Great service and atmosphere - clearly a spot loved by many a local! We enjoyed their potatoes with rabbit a lot, this was great. Their tartar was also excellent. However, they were out of slow cooked pork when we arrived (@8pm) and so suggested we try their beef instead. This was VERY dry and we pretty much left this dish untouched. As feedback to the chef, if you made it less dry the dish itself came together well. But when we ate it last night (21/12/23) it was truly very very dry and practically inedible, hence the slightly lower rating on the food. Pictured in my review is the beef itself which as you can see is presented very nicely. Also I must admit we chose wine by the glass as we drove here, and the options were limited to two wines both of which were bad. If you like full bodied wine, you won’t find it by the glass here

Very good food, professional although not very friendly staff in a somewhat tight but cozy venue. The highlight is undoubtedly the food, which was outstanding. The service was good, and while not friendly, were efficient. The food did take a little while to be served, but was well worth the wait. Booking is a must, since it's very popular and the interior is not very big. I would say it's a must if you are anywhere on the island.

We had a nice time here with some exquisite food. Vegan and gluten-free options are also available and tasty too. Just tell the staff and they can do some custom adjustments just for you. Hygienic concept is in place and followed by orderly. Prices are affordable, maybe just a bit more pricey. You should do an reservation to be sure to get a place here.

Very very nice place, friendly service, classy atmosphere. I would give 5* to the sharing menu- tuna tartar made us think to come back :)) Main dishes are good, a solid 4*. Dessert are ok, nice, but can’t say more ;) Try caramelized octopus and tuna tartar 😎 P.s. my tuna teriyaki was oversalted,but I chose not to react on that 😊

I was so excited to try this place after seeing the reviews. The venue is very cool, and the food was good, but the attitude of the waiters ruined our time. We had 2 waiters - a first one that spoke Spanish and a second one that spoke English. The first one made us feel unwelcome and it felt like he mocked us for not speeking Spanish. The second waiter was nice, and somewhat made up for the experience. I honestly wanted to leave and go to the restaurant next door. The food was good, but not good enough to make up for the service.

We enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere and service as well as great food and wine. Everything was perfect. Thank you 😊

Having found this place courtesy of Google maps I found you could walk there from Santa Cruz using a national footpath. But what I didn't realise is that it is uphill all the way, not 1m of flat or down hill in the whole walk and some of uphill very steep. It takes an hour. So when we arrived my wife was ready to file for divorce. Thankfully this marvellous restaurant saved the day. There are 3 places to sit; on a small terrace, in the ground floor bistro or in the large cellar restaurant. Service was great, friendly and efficient. Food was fabulous. Ambience (in the cellar) lovely. This was probably the best meal we had on La Palma.

Had lunch in the basement of this establishment, where the decor and ambiance really shine. The aubergine dish was crispy eggplant sticks drizzled with molasses - very sweet. The bread was steaming fresh and served with chive butter. Wines were excellent, and even some La Palma wines available. My main was delicious and reminded me of Dutch comfort food. It was hake filet split open, with a sliced of smoked salmon slipped in, and then the whole thing fried crispy on the outside. This was served with whipped potatoes, of course. Service in Spanish, English, and possibly German and Dutch (we were asked which of the four languages we prefer).
