I usually enjoy lunch at this restaurant,but we decided to visit in the evening,not a good decision.There was a good buzz when we arrived but our initial optimism disappeared by the poor service, our starter ,was literally thrown onto the table. Wine opened and poured straight into glasses . Our expensive fish arrived,again thrown onto the table and off disappeared the waiter,without a word. I looked around at other diners who looked increasingly glum as food was excessively delayed,served indifferently or looked downright awful. The restaurant was not overly busy,so no excuse really. We didnât return for the duration of the holiday as we found much better restaurants,where we had memorable meals.

Have been to this delightful seafront restaurant on two separate occasions and not been disappointed. The staff and service is just right- friendly and attentive but not pushy. First visit had beers and then the fish soup - really tasty and filling. Second time went for seafood paella which was delicious.Itâs a lovely restaurant ideally situated by the sea. Thoroughly recommend it.

I always stop at Bagus for a burger lunch at some point during my Cotillo trips, and this time around was just as good as always. It was very busy when I went, so I ordered at the till, which speeds things up a great deal - don't just sit and wait for table service, you could be waiting a while...My Yankee burger was stunning, and the beer was cold and delightful.Full marks and 5 stars!

We have frequented this restaurant numerous times during our many holidayâs in Corralejo. Located right in the beach. They food menu caters for everyone. The staff are very friendly. The only negative is their prices have increased, but itâs still cheaper to dine there than it would be to dine out at home.

Five tapas and a bottle of wine for 18 euros is enough for a couple. There are a few tables inside with more outside in a quiet square. Service was good, food was good and I liked that locals were there, creating a nice ambience.

We are a couple leaving in the island. Amongst all touristicoffer of restaurants, its sometimes hard to find an option of quality, considering most of the restaurants are set up for tourists, who will not return again.You will enjoy here wonderful fresh fish and calamares (Squid) fished in the âbackyardâ (the father of the owners is a local fisherman who supplies the rest.) Veggies and dressings make eating here a true delight, very tasty flavours! Hope you Enjoy your experience as we trully did!

We booked (a table on the terrace) based on the reviews that weâd read and we looking forward to a great dinner.We arrived and the terrace table now was inside, that didnât matter as it was a bar style table with a huge rusty chain holding a beautiful weathered ornate piece of wood. The interior was pretty cool.Nice and busy with a happy buzzy feeling.We ordered some drinks and then decided what tapas (for the adults) and a main for the kids.Tapas:Fried squidGreen padrons Fried cheese with hamCroquettesGarlic PrawnsPork and potatoes Kids :Sharing a large plate of fried pork and potatoes.3 small baguette came out with 2 mojo sauces. Baguettes were pretty much par cooked bread that you pop in the oven to cook through or reheat - thought it was basic.Tapas... Iâm going to say, pretty average. Not blown away at all. Couldâve been the tapas food that is had recently in the uk (pre made and lobbed in the deep fat fryer.Everything was identical size wise. Perfect round croquettes, exact same triangle for the cheeses.Waited for ages for the kids food.Waited and waited. Asked for it and waited. Asked for the bill and requested that the kids to be cancelled.Within 5 mins,no bill but the kids food came.The waitress was extremely apologetic- she was lovely. Apart from the fact that the kids were moaning as they were starving and they watched us eat our uniform sized (factory made?) tapas, we thought it was highly priced for what it was. I guess the location is the price marker. Really thought it wouldâve been better. The waitress did take the kids food off the bill - very kind, but at that point I think it was too late to turn it around.Went home and had food at home Slightly concerned about writing an honest review as the feedback Iâm about to get from the owner will probably be unpleasant. Iâll brace myself!Hi, Iâm really sorry about your bad experience a our restaurant, we do have a bad day with new staff in both area, kitchen and service.But no excuse for that.Now, regarding our food, everything on a menu are freshly made in our kitchen, the same size balls of chicken croquettes, are made on purpose for the guarantee of the same cooking and hotness inside aswell for there look in the plate.The same work is done regarding the triangle of fuerteventura fresh goat cheese.Iâm deeply sorry for the waiting on a kids plate, I wish you can come back and let us change your experience.Thank you

Sabrina is the Roman name of a border river between England and Wales. In the Azzurro, Sabrina is the border between Cotillo and Heaven. She knows what to eat, when and how. Potatoes with "mojo picón", grilled octopus, the best fish on the market, grilled tuna, and all this with a Canarian white wine, "Volcano", delicious. Then, the drinks on the terrace, unforgettable. Thanks, Sabrina.

Iâd heard good reports about a restaurant called La Ballena so, armed with Google Directions, I walked less than ten minutes through El Cotillo to the edge of the village, where the small fort stands.La Ballena opened at six-thirty.Itâs a very small, modern place, all quite âopen planâ.The chef-patron and the pretty waitress greeted me and invited me to sit anywhere. It was a fine, sunny evening, so I opted for a small table outside, overlooking the fort and coastline.This little place is unpretentious in its decor, though the ambiance is agreeable and the warmth of the staff facilitates it all.The menu featured the usual seafood, beef, chicken and so on.The fish, however, comprised John Dory and Cherne.I ordered the Garlic Prawns as a starter: sizzling, juicy, abundant butter and slices of garlic; and a bread roll to soak it all up.It was very good; fair value for â¬6 or so.I more or less stopped drinking in September, 2018, so had a flute of something akin to Buckâs Fizz.Shortly thereafter the main course arrived: John Dory and more prawns, almost floating in a soupy kind of juice, with sliced potatoes, stewed tomato, red pepper.The fish was cooked perfectly and I enjoyed it all.The bread soaked up some of the âsauceâ, though, alas, it simply wasnât to my taste.Iâm not terribly keen on thin sauces, impossible to consume without a soup spoon.Still, as I said, I enjoyed it, and the staff were quite charming.I began a conversation with an ex-pat couple at the adjacent table.They lived in the village and advised me to have a look at the âFuerteventura Forumâ on the Internet.

What a wonderful little restaurant. Not a huge menu choice but an excellent variety. Unfortunately a couple of things unavailable but what we had meant we were not disappointed. The filleted cod was awesome and huge. The tuna cooked to perfection. Didn't come with any carbs so felt we had eaten healthily as well. Service was perfect. Def worth finding it and we will be back.
