Da Arianna Restaurante, Pizzería & Grill — Restaurant in Puerto de la Cruz

Such a shame was really looking forward to experiencing this restaurant. A high queue outside last night (Saturday). Would say everything about service was poor from the start. Menu given but no drinks order taken then no wine list . Ordered red wine photo attached and was delivered so cold everyone knows red wine should be room temperature as it changes the smoothness . Ordered a coke as did not like wine but never came .Asked again for Tia Maria but was offered amereto which was good . Must say food was good hubby had carbonara I had seafood risotto never had a check back we had been finished over 20 minutes before my neaty stacked plates were collected.

My Uruguayan steak was tender and beautifully grilled, and my partner’s Alfredo pasta was creamy, rich, and clearly made with care.

The service was warm and unfussy — friendly without being overbearing — and the whole experience felt personal and welcoming. There’s nothing flashy here, just honest cooking and a team that takes quiet pride in doing things right.

Whether you’re hungry after a walk through the Botanical Gardens or just looking for a meal with heart, Da Arianna is a lovely surprise worth...
