We only enjoyed the croquetas, but they were delicious. The chef showed us the Pescado Portuguese and explained the recipe. We will definitely return to try it out, and other dishes.

Muy recomendable hacer reserva (siempre no olvidarse de pedir la mesa dentro y más en invierno por el frío en la terraza).Local pequeño pero muy cómodo.Servicio bueno y rápido.Comida casera buena(ropa vieja, croquetas muy buenas ).En general, buena relación calidad precio.

El trato de lo más exquisito que se puede desear, sobrepasa la excelencia, hay que ser pacientes en ser atendidos, ya que se el lugar se llena, nos respetaron nuestra reserva a pesar de pillar cola en Arucas y el google maps llevarnos a Valsendero por un camino de cabras, si vas a ir y usas el GPS, mejor poner que vas a Valleseco y luego busca Valsendero o la cantina de Juan , el codillo que nos comimos estaba buenísimo, la croquetas espectaculares, totalmente recomendado

Tanto la comida como el servicio espectaculares. Bastante cantidad de comida en los platos y una buena relación calidad-precio. El trato del servicio es bastante cercano y muy agradable. Lo único que es recomendable reservar, porque al ser un local no tan grande, se llena rápido. Si coméis fuera, cuidado con los gatos (les gusta pedir).
