9.5/10Great food, the sea bass was cooked to perfection. The scallops were also very good. Friendly and attentive waiters. Would go back again if my purse allows it.

4/10I have no idea why this place has such good reviews. Our experience was rather disappointing. When we showed up on time for our reservation nobody was around to great us, After about 10 minutes a distracted waitress wanted to seat us inside an empty restaurant on a warm evening. Finally she relented and gave us a table on the terrace. The general ambiance of the place is a bit shabby and fairly low end. After ordering, the appetizers came fairly quickly, nothing special. The assorted bread basket with olives for a princely 8€ was tiny, literally 4 small slices of bread and perhaps 50 g of olives. For the main course the patron served one of us a wrong dish that we hadn’t ordered and was quite consternated that we complained. He took the dish away and a minute later served us the correct dish. Both mains were utterly forgettable. Service was distracted und difficult to get ahold of. All in all, we wouldn’t return, not worth the price. Nero sul Mare, not too far away is much better.

Thank you very much for your opinion. We are sorry that you were not satisfied, fortunately this is not usual, we know that you ordered: a black rice and two rice dishes with fish and seafood as well as a margherita pizza and some chicken nuggets. We sincerely do not understand why you did not like our rice dishes when they are one of our specialties and even though you ate almost everything.

10/10The food was great, the cocktails were great and even though they were a chef down the food came out really quickly and they were doing everything they could to make it an enjoyable evening. More expensive than the other meals we had in the area but feel it was worth it as we had a great evening. Steaks were great and the suckling pig was amazing.

6/10The Place is very lovely, very close to the Hard Rock Hotel. The Service and welcome are very very good with Staff who tries his best to make you comfortable as much as possible. You will find a very large choice of meals and very competitive Kids Menu also. They have a quite large Cocktails choices and nice Wine List as well. Can easily book online with the Fork and you have possibilities to eat outside (limited seats) and inside where you have Aircon. Our negative score comes from the Food itself which is very very average if not less for some meals like the Chicken, Fries... It is a missed opportunities because the restaurant itself has a lot of potential and really good to go but not if you expect high quality food, which was our case looking after the pictures and presentations online. https://www.tripadvisor.fr/ShowUserReviews-g2180527-d23866250-r964220789-El_Mayeq-Playa_Paraiso_Adeje_Tenerife_Canary_Islands.html#

Amazing scallops (chef recipe), bravas and black rice paella. We share a paella for 1 person with the two starters and it was plenty. Really good food, of a much higher standard than the norm in Tenerife, made from scratch and healthy, as well as incredibly tasty. Impeccable service too. We will be back before we leave!

This discreet restaurant is a diamond find. Wanted to experience some quality food with our family, with atmosphere and a relaxed environment. Service and experience of wine and food was amazing. As for the food itself, delicious, top quality dining, faultless. Catered for all ages to an extreme high standard the restaurant itself is stunning and so different to all others in this area.
