What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
This waterfront spot is praised for its amazing location overlooking the marina and the lively atmosphere created by live music. Diners enjoy generous portion sizes and good value, with many highlighting the tapas as a must-try. However, some reviews mention inconsistent service, with waiters sometimes appearing uninterested or overworked, and a few negative experiences with cocktail quality and food preparation have been noted.
"Visited a few times during our holiday for brunch/lunch, friendly welcoming staff. Great location, we njoyed baguettes, and toasted sandwiches. All staff are luvly and hardworking, place is very popular. They also sell a roast chicken and chips from a rotisserie at €10. :) :)"

"Great meal here.
Food is very good.
Wide choice so something for everyone.
The sole was cooked to perfection.
Beef bourguignon was a huge portion.
Good value.
Suggest you book. We arrived just after 7pm and were seated immediately but by 8pm there was a queue.
This has been here for a long time. I came with my son before when he was 2 years old, they cater very well for children.
My son is now 20."

"Singer was amazing !
Food was beautiful and a really nice atmosphere.
Waiters aren’t that friendly and the place is so popular I did think they could have done with some more staff.
A lot of food for the price so loved that !
Make sure you book as you’ll likely be disappointed as it’s very popular"

A Tapas Trail Through the Best Restaurants in Playa Blanca, Lanzarote
My first ever experience of tapas was at Lani’s, when I came on holiday to Playa Blanca with a friend as a teenager. It’s been my go-to for the best tapas in Playa Blanca ever since. The food is straight-talking and delicious, and the generous portion sizes make it excellent value for money and one of the best restaurants in Playa Blanca, in my opinion.
