El Boia - Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

Interesting experience shell we say… the other restaurant that we’d been recommended was open on Google but closed in actuality… So we ended up here, choice…You wait in the waiting area and push a bell in theory the waiter comes to collect you… there must’ve been three couples six people in the queue waiting perhaps bell was broken, finally the waiter came after seeing que and said why we hadn’t pushed bell… Great first impression…, then we were seated the restaurant was a third full thankfully we were seated by a waiters station as there appeared to be one taking the orders the other two were clearing tables and serving… so were able to get his attention fairly easily… The menu was quite strange although in multiple languages it was a photographic menu on paper like a tourist menu in particular Asian resorts… Anyway the food wasn’t too bad brought out in different times on sml plates tapas style… I had a local wine which was very nice the only couple of negative things to point out that one of the fish dishes was frozen cod waiter mentioned and I being from New Zealand had ordered the mussels which were green lipped from New Zealand frozen not realising when I ordered… so I would say possibly a third of the menu was frozen and certainly not fresh as expected….Anyway not a bird evening/ experience we suppose depending what u order…

You hear the sound of the waves. Good prices. good rations and a lot of variety. simple and traditional place, this gives you the charm. I'm not from here, but it was recommended by a great Canarian people as a classic among the canaries I recommend.

Each different plate of glass, other ceramics, other old relics of duralex. fast service, bulk food, rice enriched with avecrem, has not changed over the years, cleaning to improve especially in the kitchen. the best, the views of the front line of the beach and the price of quality of relationship.

We found that restaurant by chance, we were looking for google restaurants nearby and we saw the buoy, we arrived soon, so we caught a table by the beach, with good views. our surprise came when little by little began to fill with people until there was an infinite queue on the street where people had to even catch a number to eat. the menu is very varied and especially with fish and seafood. prices are extraordinarily good, for example two grilled octopus were 8 euros, fresh fish (2 fish) euros ... a bottle of Rioja wine 7 euros, in short, is a place where you don't have to worry about the price of the letter as it won't be much and you will get very full of there. the fish is really good, the octopus even better, but it's that wrinkled potatoes are even better! everything is delicious. the super friendly and attentive staff, we have so much that we repeat !. then we discover that the buoy is very famous and everyone knows it.
