    We celebrated our anniversary at El Tenedor with Chef Cesar and his chef table experience. The whole evening was special, from the warm greeting to the intimate setting with just us, Chef and server, candle lit and soft music. We had the Chef experience with wine tasting. All the dishes were really wonderful and fresh with fantastic flavours. The wines were beautifully paired to enhance the food experience. It was a beautiful and special evening. We look forward to returning. Thank you Chef Cesar!!

    The white asparagus was tough and chewy. All 4 dishes taste mild and similar, nothing impressive, extremely expensive.

    Just one table and one seating so we had the restaurant to ourselves. 5 course meal, lamb or lobster for the main. Wine was very reasonably priced. Will definitely return with a bigger group next time.
