Restaurante El Rancho — Restaurant in Guía de Isora

We stopped by this restaurant during our vacation in Tenerife. The food? Tasty. The prices? Fair. Things started off on a good note, but then the plot thickened.

I ordered a T-bone steak that must’ve taken a wrong turn and ended up in the “charcoal” section of the kitchen. It was well beyond well done, basically beef jerky with a bone. Thankfully, the sirloin managed to survive.

We asked for mayo. It never came. I like to believe it’s still out there, on a heroic journey from the fridge to our table.

But the real kicker? You need a 0.5 EUR coin to use the bathroom, even if you’re eating there! Felt like I was back at a gas station, not a restaurant. Good thing I had a 1 EUR coin, or this review might have been written under more desperate circumstances.

We will definitely...

Had a terrible experience at this place. A waiter told us off whilst we were having our lunch outside the restaurant. We were told it's OK to have our lunch here as we had some food ordered. Since we were in a group and some people had their own preference to eat. We stayed outside but that waiter wasn't very good and told us off despite having food from their restaurant. Chips and coffee were horrible and had literally no taste at all. Hot food wasn't good at all anc I wouldn't recommend this...
