Authentic Spanish Cuisine in a Warm, Family-Friendly Atmosphere We visited Los Porches for the second time and were once again impressed! The food is absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and prepared with care. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a family-style charm that makes you feel right at home. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, adding to the overall great experience. Prices are very reasonable for the quality you get, making it an excellent choice for a satisfying Spanish meal. The only (tiny) downside: the portions are quite generous—I couldn’t finish mine! But that’s hardly a complaint. A solid 4.5 stars, and we’ll definitely be back!

I recently dined at Restorante los Porches, and while the experience was a bit of a mixed bag food-wise, the overall atmosphere and service were simply outstanding. I started with the shrimp as an appetizer, and they were truly delightful. As an Italian cusine lover, I was a bit let down by the pizza I had as my main dish. Unfortunately, it did not hit the mark for me as the flavors were off. Our dinner was saved by the amazing service. Our waiter was an absolute gem - charming, funny, and attentive in all the right ways. He created such a warm, welcoming atmosphere that we could not help but enjoy ourselves. His energy really added to the dining experience. I would definitely return, perhaps for something other than the pizza, because the vibe and service were so exceptional!

I randomly saw this restaurant while walking, and it was full of people and dishes looked good, so I decided to go there for dinner with friends, and it ended up being the best meal we had in Gran Canaria! Despite some previous reviews saying paella wasn't the best, we tried it and turned out great...also both meat and fish grilled stuff is amazing. As for dessert, I loved especially the Uruguayan one and the flan, tiramisù was my only slight disappointment... The staff is very nice too!

Amazing & fresh local food! We stayed in Gran Canaria for a week and ended up eating here every evening. We tried almost everything on the menu, and nothing disappointed — the seafood paella was incredible, the octopus and grilled/fried calamari were fresh and flavorful, and the garlic shrimp with garlic bread is a must-try. Don’t miss the homemade flan either — everything was absolutely delicious! The staff were super friendly, and the service was consistently quick each night. We’d definitely come back here!

I was here seven years ago, and now I'm back to this beautiful place. It still has the best food in Maspalomas. Great service and excellent food. The price is reasonable, and the atmosphere is really nice and cozy! I sincerely recommend it, especially for the seafood and the fish.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

My husband and I found this beautiful place randomly and fell in love with the quality and the service of this place. And we came back 3 times and tried different dishes. Grilled octopus is a must here. In a city full of tourist traps, a restaurant like Los Porches gives you a local experience with really good quality food and always good service.
