Best chateaubriand in many years, meat was cooked perfectly.Pannacotta dessert was to die for. Has potential to make five stars with a little more experience. Staff very friendly and eager to please. Would definitely recommend and we will return!

his new restaurant in Macher has only been open a couple of weeks and is in fact the old “Chic” which closed its doors late last year. The large terrace has sea views and now houses a large coal fired BBQ Grill at one end. Alongside it is a fresh meat and fish display refrigerator where you can see the produce on offer. A large and varied herb garden also garnishes the outside. There is ample parking and also a children’s play park outside.

The inside of the restaurant is wonderful following a shabby chic theme from the refurbishment in its previous guise and is divided into varying sized rooms for intimate dining. There is a contemporary style bar with cool lighting and seating area if you are unlucky enough to have to wait for a table. However I can assure you that good things come to those who wait........

The friendly staff are extremely polite and efficient led by the imitable Sunni who will make your visit a comfortable one. The menu is condensed, however I find this to be a good sign that actually sometimes less is more. A restricted number of dishes to choose from often means the food is done well and the chef is not stretched over a plethora of dishes and processes.

So onto the food. We choose a simple starter to share, the selection of skewers which are actually more like Pinchos. Slices of baguette with mature goats cheese, Salami and Uga smoked salmon. Before the starters arrived we were presented with some complimentary bruschetta style offerings from the chef to munch on while we waited. Very nice. The Pinchos then duly arrived and were polished off with glee. All three types topped with quality ingredients.

The mains we opted for were the Black Angus Roll with Bacon and the homemade 200g burger. Both came a choice of potatoes; we chose the fries which came in two large portions. The Angus Roll was offered with wok fried vegetables or salad. I plumped for the vegetables and they were fabulous and again a good sized portion, enough to share. The Angus Roll was a thin cut of steak with pancetta style bacon laid across it and then rolled up and cooked on the BBQ. Complimentary bread was also delivered to accompany the mains. They promote themselves as a traditional grill restaurant, and I’m not sure having only had a couple of dishes, but I think all the meat or fish that you order is prepared in the kitchen and then cooked on the BBQ on the terrace to order. If you are dining on the terrace be advised the smell of this is like being slowly tortured as you wait impatiently for your food! Both meals were exceptional and we can’t wait to return to work our way through the menu.

For Desert we went for two of the specials which were a Panacotta with fresh berries on a biscuit base and the Apple Sphere which was an apple glazed sphere with vanilla ice cream in the centre. Served with fresh strawberries. Both were a delightful choice to finish off the meal with.

Drinks were reasonable priced and we enjoyed a complimentary gin and tonic to finish and fresh herb shots with the bill. We had 4 beers 2 glasses of wine and 2 waters and the bill was €74 which I think displayed excellent value for money for the quality of the food. Definitely worth a visit whether you live here or are just visiting.

Le meilleur restaurant de Lanzarote ? Ne vous fiez pas à l'aspect extérieur. La décoration intérieure est réussie. La cuisine est exceptionnelle, digne d'un des meilleurs restaurants français. Les associations de saveurs, la présentation, la qualité... On atteint la des sommets. Le service était attentionné et bienveillant sans être envahissant.. Les conseils culinaires judicieux... Le choix des vins approprié, cuvée spéciale d'un rose local à conseiller. L'établissement n'existe que depuis deux mois mais la concurrence de l'île toute entière n'a qu'à bien se tenir.... UN INCONTOURNABLE. compter 30 € à la carte :mise en bouche, entrée, plats, dessert, boissons. Un prix très largement mérité. Longue vie et réussite... Bravo.

Gran descubrimiento, instalaciones muy cuidadas al detalle y servicio muy atento. Al llegar te obsequian con una tapa de atún y batata que estaba bastante rica. En todos los platos prima el producto con una presentación sencilla para no restarle importancia; mientras que los acompañamientos los sirven a parte, frescos y elaborados al momento, como las verduritas que acompañan la carne o las papas y batatas fritas..

Von aussen unscheinbar aber drinnen sehr schön es ist sauber und nett.
Zum Essen es war einfach der Hammer wir hatten ganz normale Steaks mit Gemüse und hausgemachten Pommes und es war geschmacklich der Wahnsinn.
Der Kellner war von Anfang bis Ende sehr zuvorkommend. Preis Leistung waren auch super

Maravilloso, entré por casualidad, y quedé sorprendida, la atención es Impecable, la comida estaba deliciosa, el entrecot es de los mejores que he comido, la cazuela de mariscos estaba de chuparse los dedos, solo falto un poquitin más de cocción al pulpo, los precios son razonables, y tienen una preciosa bodega de vinos, sin duda volveré.
