Cafeteria Canaletas — Restaurant in Lloret de Mar

Review for Cafeteria Canaletas, Lloret de Mar

The waiter was kind and polite, which I truly appreciated 🤍

Unfortunately, the food was very disappointing. I ordered a mixed seafood platter – only the shrimps were somewhat okay. The mussels had a bad smell, and the fish and shrimp were not cleaned properly (not deveined), which made them quite unpleasant to eat. The fish was especially bad – poorly cooked, likely frozen, with an old texture that was falling apart. It honestly didn’t feel fresh at all. While chewing, I could even feel sand in my teeth, which was really off-putting and showed how poorly the seafood was handled.

I really tried hard to find something good and gave it a fair chance, but in the end, it was nearly disgusting. Only one slightly larger piece of fish was somehow okay.

The only slight positive on the plate was a bit of iceberg salad, but it was placed under the warm fish, which made it soggy and completely ruined the freshness. It would have been much better served on the side.

I also ordered a “Fresh” juice, which was actually good – and together with the friendly service, those were the only redeeming parts of the visit. The bottled water came in the smallest portion possible, which felt quite stingy for the price.

Overall, the place might be okay for drinks, but I definitely would not recommend eating here. I won’t be coming back for food.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t take photos, because the waiter was so nice and put my phone to charge 🙏

To be honest, I was really expecting to eat fresh fish in Lloret de Mar, and this experience left me pretty...

Very good paella for a reasonable price (10.95 euros) and sangria la cava is one of the best my partner and I have had. Paella is cooked fresh and comes out hot unlike in some places where everything is Luke warm. It's a good proportion and definitely leaves you full, only complaint would be adding a bit more of the meats into it as it lacked as u can see from the picture (mixed paella - squid, chicken, mussel, prawns). The restaurant itself is always busy, always has people in it. Lovely atmosphere, waiters are lovely too always checking up if your food and drink is ok and whether you need...

Dropped my walet while dining here. When i returned some French people had handed it in to the staff, when i got my walet back my money was missing from it, the staff would not check the cameras and the Police were no help, i was able to ask the people that handed it in if they saw money in it and they said yes, which leeds me to believe that the staff robbed my money, i asked for the owner and was told he would ring me, which he never did, flight leaving today and nothing i can do about it, be careful with your wallets and purses around the...
