Restaurante la Pérgola — Restaurant in Santiago del Teide

Having eaten twice here before early 2020, we wanted to mark a celebrationary night on our holiday in 2024.

We booked 3 days advance as we wanted a table next to the window. Booking is essential here even if you don't want a window seat.

We were greated warmly, the staff were just so nice the whole night and it really felt like a special night.

As mentioned in a few other reviews, the portion sizes are smaller compared with other restaurants in the area. However, this is a fine dining experience and the food was cooked exceptionally. The price also reflects this compared to our other nights out this was more expensive. But this was a treat meal.

I'd recommend ordering a side of fries and maybe a side of veg with your main. Unless you order pasta for which is a nice portion.

We ordered Scallops in oyster sauce, squid, bread, pasta with seafood and the fish of the day was Wild Grouper. Have absolutely no complaints with the food, cooking was perfect and zero bones in my Grouper which I always worry about.

Dessert, we shared an apple tarte tatin, which I'd absolutely recommend!

The bottle of rosé fizz to mark our celebration added €34 to the bill, but it was delicious and the waiters would pass the table and offer to top the glass up. Just lovely service.

Thank you to the team at la Pergola, we may see you again on...

My recent visit to this restaurant left me with mixed feelings. On the one hand, the food served was a delight - each dish was beautifully prepared and full of flavor, testament to the skill of the kitchen team.

The location of the restaurant is impressive and adds to the overall dining experience. It provides a good ambiance and a comfortable setting for a relaxing meal.

However, the service fell short of my expectations. The staff, while polite, seemed a bit slow in their response time and lacked attentiveness. This is an area where I believe the restaurant could make significant improvements to align with the quality of their food and location.

Also, it's worth mentioning that our meal was unfortunately disturbed by a notable number of flies in the dining area. This was quite off-putting and detracted from our overall enjoyment of the food. I would suggest the restaurant to take effective measures to solve this issue.

In conclusion, while the food and location are commendable, there are areas such as service speed, staff attentiveness, and pest control that could greatly enhance the dining experience at...

This was celebrating a special occasion, admittedly booked online at short notice that morning, but confirmed to us both by text message and email. We would have rated this much higher regarding the food but our experience was tainted on arrival by the fact that our booking was questioned by the waiter. He said they had no knowledge of it, and asked us for proof. Even when we showed him their email and text he was still dismissive of our reservation and then started to blame "the guy who deals with the bookings", saying he had not had time to deal with it properly. How was this our problem? Eventually after leaving us standing he took us to a table in the far corner of the restaurant, saying all the outside tables were booked. He then brought another waiter to the table who we had to show our confirmation to once more before they would serve us. In the end we had a nice meal and the food and wine was of good quality and very tasty, but the event was marred significantly through no fault of ours and without any form of apology for their inadequate...
