Found Vista Sur when looking for highest rated restaurants in area. The Paella was fresh and the portion was generous! Ordered for two but was so delicious ate for one
We had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. Our waiter, Charlie, was incredibly professional, attentive, and friendly, which made the evening even more enjoyable. The food was excellent – I especially loved the paella, which came in a big portion and was absolutely delicious. Great service and amazing food – highly recommend!
Really nice restaurant. Food was very tasty and lots of options. Staff were attentive and friendly. And the live music was a nice addition. Loved that the paella came in a single serving.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Restaurant! Absolutely lovely food and service from start to finish. My boys had two fillet steaks — perfectly cooked and topped with an amazing mushroom gravy, possibly the best in Tenerife! We had the leg of lamb, which was soft, tender, and just fell off the bone. Everything tasted fresh and full of flavour. Highly recommended we’ll definitely be back! Not a lucky man from beginning to end of the meal.
food was incredible, best place we’ve found in tenerife while we’ve been here!! everything is great quality and value plus the staff are absolutely brilliant. specifically abdul and charlie are extremely accommodating and such fun people to be around!! such a great evening, we will definitely be coming back :) (the photos of the breaded camembert are after we had already eaten two haha).
I was hesitant to go in, but gave it a chance. It was a great decision. The food is awesome. The place looks spotless, and apparently the owner of the property is on the spot all time. I had amazing fish soup - it tasted like the one made by mom in Moldova. So good! I’ve added butter bread. Great portion. For the main I had med-rare stake with mushroom sauce, it came with great french fries and garlic steamed veggies. Superb! The sangria tasted like sangria; great balance of alcohol and juice. Overall, great experience.
Very nice place, loved the food, also nice cocktails. The location is a little hidden but if you care about a quality please visit
Absolutely amazing food....friendly and helpful staff, clean and reasonable priced. Went back more than twice in the week we were there and we will be back again . Definitely recommend their paella.
