We visited this restaurant on a Sunday afternoon at around 2pm which was probably the busiest time we could have chosen to go!  However, we didn’t have to wait long to be shown to a table. There are a few seating areas in this restaurant – out on the front terrace, inside the restaurant itself, READ MORE

The restaurant is perched on a steep hill. However inside everything is one floor including toilets so it is good for people with mobility issues who could be dropped at the entrance. I didn’t notice if the door is wide enough for wheelchair access. During busy times the parking around the restaurant is full but READ MORE

It has a huge outside terrace and although there are tables inside, they aren’t set, and nobody appeared to want to sit inside to eat or were even invited inside to eat. When we arrived early evening, including our table, there were eight tables READ MORE

This restaurant is located on the first floor overlooking the Plaza del Charco and it is very popular, although this could be because it has very little competition! The service was very friendly and in typical Chinese fashion, very quick. The portions were large and meant that we ended up taking some home with us.  READ MORE

La Tasquita de Min is a specialist seafood restaurant not far from the Muelle. It’s open until 10:30pm. We arrived around 9pm so it was getting quiet.
