Allende Puerto — Restaurant in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

My self and my wife called in here and were we delighted. A lovely restaurant and the first thing we were asked had we a reservation, a good sign. Lucky they had a table available and we sat down. The restaurant quickly filled with locals, mostly young locals, and the waiter Daniel and the chef coped very well. it's menu is aimed towards sharing as most of the parties around us did. I was hungry but Rita was not. We ordered Chicken brocettes, 4, and I ordered the rib eye steak. The brocettes were 4 skewers with 2 large pieces of chicken and vegetables on each and the steak was delicious and perfectly cooked as ordered, rare. The chips were unusual, thin sliced potatoes deep fried and, we ordered an extra portion. We are in town for another few days and hopefully will call back if not see you next time. a little gem worth...

I really can't understand previous reviews that complain about the service. Both nights we were there the waiters were very attentive and polite. One of the evenings we were informed our mains would take a bit longer but we had no problem waiting the extra 5 minutes. One of the waiters could easily end up being the happiest and most energetic person we ever met.

Now the food... a selection of tapas and mains. Fried aubergine with honey, foie with caramelised apples and this yum curry bread. But the highlight for me was the ceviche with passion fruit. Good lord was that good. The cod was also very good.

Overall this was a great experience and it is now one of my favourite places...

Allende is great for food, price and ambiance. Service is fast and attentive. One man who's very cheerful runs most of the restaurant and will make you cheer you up all the time. Warm bread comes with refreshing tomato salsa. Try tuna, calamari and octopus (Pulpo) and also eggplant fries (Aubergine) (so good!!). Potato with egg and ham is really tasty too. we had freshly baked cookie with ice-cream and it was very good. Overall, great price, good portion and high quality and flavorful dish. Highly...
