Food is amazing, servers are very kind. With all the hard work the chef, staff, owners & entertainers put into everyone having a great experience. Amir will ruin it for you! Amir does a disservice to guests by working here, He is rude, unprofessional and just a mean person. We were having a great time and moved to the lounge area after dinner. Amir quickly came over and said we had to move as the area we were sitting was reserved. I asked for another table in the lounge area near a heat lamp. He never came back to re seat us, we waited 30 mins. When I asked Amir if we were going to be accommodated to another table in the lounge area, He said “ I am Busy!” The entire time we waited for a table no one ever sat at the “reserved” area in lounge area that he asked us to move from. At one point he put his finger in my husband’s face and spoke very demeaning to him (very poor customer service). All the servers felt really bad. Servers apologized, Christian/Owner apologized, even son of owner apologized. Everyone apologized but Amir. We stood waiting and waiting for an area to sit in the lounge area that never happened, so we had to leave. Amir made it a very horrible experience. If he did not work there, it would be so much better, As this is not what La Farm stands for. As long as Amir works there, I would not go to La Farm.. La Farm can be a really great experience, if Amir did not work there. He makes La Farm a very BAD experience. For Tourist reading this (as I have a home here) there are so many other better places to go to with excellent food AND excellent service by ALL staff. Before making a reservation, I would call and see if Amir still works at La Farm before you go. If he does, you will be sorry, do not go, He will ruin your “experience” . It’s too bad 1 person can ruin the reputation of LaFarm and what could be a great experience. Once Amir, is no longer there, La Farm will be what is should be, a truly...
Read moreIt was my family's second visit to La Farm, and after a mediocre first visit we decided to give it another try. Unfortunately last nights experience was even more disappointing, on many levels. Firstly, having arrived at 8pm for dinner, we were told that 4 dishes from an already very small menu were unavailable, and having then ordered a bottle of Bollinger champagne, this was also unavailable and substituted with a bottle none of us had heard of or tried before (which was actually very nice). Secondly, the few staff that were available were so engrossed in a couple that were getting married at the hotel that they paid little to no attention to our table, which then had knock on affects to the chefs, and meant our food came out sporadically, meaning we were all eating our food at different times. (see second photo) Finally, the fish that I ordered, the Turbot, priced at €48 (!!) was almost inedible- the skin was hard and rubbery, and there was little to no actual fish...when we said this to the waitress she said there was nothing wrong with it. (see first photo).Subsequently we heard the table next to us had exactly the same experience complaint with the fish. On a positive note- the rest of the food was tasty, especially the steak & the starters we ordered. We did manage to speak to the manager at the end of the meal who very kindly refunded the fish from our bill, but we all felt let down and all agree that we will not be returning to...

From the moment we arrived and saw the entrance and driveway we knew our visit was going to be special. We were greeted with a friendly welcome and warm smile then taken straight out to the terrace for a glass of wine to watch the sun go down.
The food menu had so many good choices so we left it in the hands of the Alex one of the fabulous waiting staff to chose for us. We were recommended to have the starters as tapas so we could taste a bit of everything. We were not disappointed. I have to admit, normally I wouldn't even try anchovies but it was my favourite dish!
We stuck to the meat dishes for mains, Lamb chops and entrecôte. Stunning! They even took the entrecôte to reheat on the fire pit BBQ part way through so the last bite was just as stunning as the first.
Alex recommended the food and wines with such knowledge and his passion absolutely shone though. Both himself and Carolay provided an outstanding service. Always with a smile, we never had to lift a wine bottle ourselves they noticed when getting empty. So proactive and masters of their role.
Now to the rooms, another WOW. So fresh, bright, airy, so clean and they smelt amazing! Oh and the en-suite was to die for! Not only the room we were in, but as we were cheeky enough to ask for a tour of the rooms not in use, I can confirm they were all like this!
The only downside to this stay was that it wasn't long enough. We will definitely stay...
