Restaurante Ramón — Restaurant in Pájara

If you want to experience a true Spanish tragicomedy, visit this restaurant! At first, we happily went to our choosen table, but our enthusiasm was fading more and more with the time spent on waiting for our food. After 30 minutes, the waitress brought the first thing to the table - appetizer – four dry breads and three sauces, which must have been the Spain’s version of ‘not great.’

And after another 15 minutes our main dish finally arrived - Paella. The prawns looked as though they’d just enjoyed a nice meal themselves and left us with a ‘surprise’ in the form of stomach acids. In addition, the whole dish smelled and tasted like dirt, which was probably due to the liquid pouring out of the prawns.

When we asked the waitress why the stomach of the prawn was leaking into our plate, we were told that it’s actually the brain and that it was because all the seafood on the island was frozen. What's that? Firstly, it was clearly the inside of the stomach, and when they threw it all together in the pan, the whole dish soaked up the aroma of the liquid. Secondly, why the hell they serve frozen seafood?

And after this whole amazing experience, we walked out 90 euros lighter and one negative experience richer.

To conclude, If you don’t mind wasting money or time, I definitely recommend it… but maybe just for...

Wonderful location at less than 20 meters from the shoreline of La Lajita. Add to the nice location and refreshing table at the shade on a torrid day and you already have 3 guaranteed stars.

The staff was friendly and helpful and the food good. The paella was not my style, Rice was too cooked, more like risotto and the color is not attractive to me. Definitely not on my top 20 places to eat paella.

The fried cheese was very good as well as the “puntillas de calamar”.

Price was good too. Check the funny bill on the pictures. No ink si only the total was showed. No worries as the price was as expected and they offered to make it by hand If necessary.

All in all a highly recommended place. Not for paella. Local fish must be super...

We came from a kayak tour and were very hungry. We found this restaurant next to the beach. The server (Carlos) welcomed us very kindly and escorted us to our table. For drinks, we ordered Tinto de Verano, which was perfectly prepared. We ordered different Tapas and grilled fresh fish. The kitchen did a great job, the food was impeccable. Congratulation. Carlos' cheerfulness and humor were an extra that many places would envy. Hello Carlos and thank you very much for a...
