The three of us ordered avocado salad starters all got fruit cocktail salads. Two mains were a tagine strange that none of the usual ingredients were in the traditional clay dish, just some rolled into a ball sardines with bones, and giant cut in half potatoes. Truly disgusting. The third main was a simple spaghetti dish the single cooking instruction was obviously 'boil until fuel runs out. ' Completely inedible. Think that was bad? Ha Mein host 's attitude was astounding and unexpected, as he greeted us warmly and drinks were brought swiftly and with a smile. Ahhhhh that smile we soon discovered it was a malicious grin, a sign that the man was having fun toying with us non Spanish speaking...
We arrived early for our stay in Canillas so decided to park up and go for lunch here. The chef's special of the day was excellent so we decided to return during our time in the village. The restaurant was always busy whether at lunch or in the evenings. Frequented by lots of locals including families, older ones (using playing card games) and those in their teens/early twenties. The standard of food each time was high. It was 7 euros for a bottle of house wine and the G&T's were excellent. The owner was friendly and helpful even though he was usually rushed off his feet. Great experience.
We had starters of black pudding and cheese parcels, which I really enjoyed, butmy wife found a little bland for her tastes. For our main courses, my wife had fillet of pork which was huge, and she said very tasty. I ordered lamb leg, expecting slices of meat........oh no.......I got a whole leg of lamb! It was beautifully prepared and was utterly delicious, with not a hint of mint sauce to be found (I hate the stuff! Instead it came with a pot of garlic infused sauce which only added to the taste. 10 out of 10. We didn't have room for postres!
We love coming to his restaurant friendly service, great plates of food and great value for money. The owner is very friendly and makes everyone feel welcome. The place is very child friendly, as the owner has two daughters of his own, and nothing is too much trouble. One of my favourite dishes is chicken with Competa wine really delicious but not on the menu, but well worth trying to ask for.
Six of us had lunch here on arrival and again today. So good we have booked for tomorrow night. All food is freshly cooked and tastes great. Vegetarian options good and others more than happy. Really nice waiter owner? . Service is not rapid but why should it be? Everything arrives and is consumed. A great spot in a lovely village
The man of the house was friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was super chilled. The food was very good on the basis of my dish would give this 4.5 out of 5, if TA permitted. I had the spinach wrap my companion had the stuffed aubergine. Would recommend for hikers in the hills around the charming village of Canillas de Albaida.
We had dinner evening one evening while staying in the village. It was dark by the time we arrived so didn't make the most of the amazing views but the friendly service and good food more than made up for that. I highly recommend the pork tenderloin with garlic paprika...delicious! A great price too.
Eaten here twice so far on holiday and really enjoyed the food. It is good to see locals eat here as well as tourists. Be prepared to wait for your meal though Ramon is the only person serving food and looking after the bar. We saw one person in the kitchen. A varied menu with lots to choose from.
This restaurant has stood the test of time, I have been several times over the last ten years and it has never disappointed. Menu is varied and good value for money. Pork is excellent. Service is quick a friendly will definitely be back when we are in the area again.
