Restaurante Tasca Galileo — Restaurant in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

The restaurante is very small, so either you arrive early, or there’s the likelihood that you have to get in line and wait. The first disappointment was when the waiter let some friends cut the line, which is not only highly disrespectful towards those who queued, but also very unprofessional. Then we found the food to be average, nothing special compared to any other restaurant that you can find in the area.
