Cafetería Mazaroco — Restaurant in Puerto de la Cruz

For sure the worst restaurant I’ve been during my whole life, as an F&B diretor I must tell you this place is disgusting, the bald waiter completely arrongant the whole time always making stupid jokes and making fun of the others but that’s not where the experience started escalating, me and my girlfriend ordered 2 steak medium rare, temperatures on both steaks were completely off, none was MR, even with that we started eating anyways(we ordered take away), after the first bite I could tell the meat was frozen for months it was disgusting, my girlfriend couldn’t eat half of it because the meat was chewy and barely eatable I wanted to give it a try anyways and did it until half of it, after that my jaw was already hurting from chewing so hard that meat, for sure a place to avoid, unfortunately they will stay open but I hope they get closed someday because serving food like that for costumers that come to spend money is disgusting, I wouldn’t give this steak even for my dog. A restaurant to avoid and never...

This Restraunt was the best I've ever been to. It was a truly life-changing experience. I ordered a ½ Chicken with Fries, and Salad. This was €6.10, which was a bit expensive, but worth it.

The table was very good quality, and the young man serving us was very polite, and set up the table for us.

It was so juicy we didn't even need any ketchup for the fries, the chicken juice was so flavourful it was better that ketchup. The fires were one of the best I ever had - Fluffy on the inside, crispy on the outside, and perfectly salted. The salad was also perfect, with a nice amount of vinegar and the perfect combination of carrot and cabbage. The juices from the chicken flavoured the salad even more, making the perfect flavour.

I enjoyed this with a glass of Cola Zero with Ice & Lemon, which was the perfect match to go with...

Mixed feelings about this place. I ordered a roasted half chicken with chips and salad. That was good. Nothing particular but nothing to complain and definitely worth the price. Also, the bread that was served separately was very fresh. But then I took dessert: green tea and a piece of mango cake. Tea was from a tea bag, not loose leaf. And the cake was old: I don't know how long they had had it for sale but it was definitely not fresh. Also quite small and a bit pricey. The service was polite.

So if you want to eat some cheap roasted chicken, Cafeteria Mazaroco is a good choice. But if you want good cakes, go to Café Marbore just nearby where they have big pieces of fresh cakes and it's also cheaper (but their tea is unfortunately from...
