Awful experience, firstly the staff, they couldn't show any less interest if they tried.
Now the food, the drinks were expensive anyway but we decided on the Mango Daiquiris, what came was basically just shaved ice with mango juice, no hint of alcohol, tasted weak and watery.
We chose the Foccacia with Burrata and Palma Ham, what came was a pizza base (most definitely NOT Foccacia), topped with a LOT of raw tomato plus the cheese and a few slices of tough Palma Ham. Now it didn't help we don't like raw tomato but given this was not even mentioned on the menu we were surprised to see it, the juices had soaked the pizza base which was a sodden unappetising mess. The waitress did ask if we'd finished as most was left.
I'd wanted Lasagne as a main course but they didn't have any left so I hastily chose a Brindisa pizza, this was meant to include cream, 'meat', onions, egg and Mozarella, when it arrived there was no sign of the cream or onions, had 5 pieces of rubbery beef and an egg on one edge, again totally bland and tasteless.
A waiter scurried over to remove the plates, not a word spoken, no offer of the dessert menu or if we'd liked our meal, we then waited ages for the bill, again no courtesy mention of our experience.
I'd go as far too say this was quite possibly the worse meal I've ever had in...

Read moreMy partner and I are in Tenerife for a conference and eating here has been problematic.
Amidst the dry veggie burgers and soggy fries we found a delight of an Italian place.
When we arrived we explained that we were vegan and looking for somewhere that could accommodate, the chef was very quick to explain that he could do us some big plates of grilled vegetables, pasta, rice, salad and Canarian potatoes. While this sounded delicious and incredibly awesome of him, we have both been craving a big salad (seemingly impossible to get where we’re staying).
So we decided on two giant salads with all sorts of veggie delights plus a “focaccia pizza bread” - it was insanely delicious, the tomato sauce was perfectly balanced and really flavourful.
Coffee with vegan chocolate finished our first good and definitely vegan lunch on the island. Thank you LaTerraza.
