Rêver Restaurante — Restaurant in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

The food was superb, tasty inventive and beautifully presented. The staff were all friendly, helpful and not at all obtrusive. Ceviche was wonderful, and I enjoyed the octopus too - two unusual choices for me. Portion size was huge - I would been happy with ⅔ or even ½ the size. Pain perdu - wow! So crispy, with wonderful crème anglaise and perfect vanilla ice cream.

The restaurant itself is a nice place to eat. We were upstairs and unfortunately it was silent. It meant my wife and I and the other family seated nearby found ourselves whispering to maintain privacy. I am not a fan of music in restaurants so I would have preferred to have heard chatter between the staff in the nearby bar/service area. It was just far too quiet!

Everything else was wonderful and well priced for the quality. The quiet was a minor suggestion / irritant. This shouldn’t put you off - downstairs sounded much more like a restaurant and I would have preferred being nearer to many other diners. They all seemed to be having a great time when we left and wandered past 30 mins later.

Just go - it’s a lovely place where the food and service are...

Do not go to this restaurant if you are under the age of 80. The restaurant was silent, deathly quiet on a Friday night. We should have known really because we got a table booked on that same day - should have been a red flag. Oh well, lesson learned. No music playing. Really weird atmosphere. We got the feeling this was a restaurant for old people - food lacked any flavour; husband had suckling pig which was bland, overcooked and under flavoured. Came with boiled potatoes. Service was good, polite waiters and quick. Just a shame that the restaurant itself has such a bad atmosphere and the food sucks. Don’t want other people to fall for the same trap as it’s expensive but really not...

Considering the quality of wine, food and service at this luxurious restaurants in the heart of Las Palmas, it is surprising that there isn’t a louder hype surrounding it.

Service was professional, friendly, attentive and knowledgable, with the sommelier providing great advice on choosing our wines, one of which was a lovely malvasia from Lanzarote.

The food was also among the very best we have had on Gran Canaria, ranging from very good to outstanding. A special mention to the delectable tuna tartar and steak tartar, the fresh burrata salad and the exquisite patatas bravas.

It might be a splurge, but Rever is well worth...
