Restaurante Akara | Lopesan Baobab Resort in Maspalomas

"There was live music (which was so beautiful, I wish I filmed it) and the waiter was exceptional! Food was also great. Everything was perfect!"

"Plates we loved: - Quail with pumpkin soup (the soup has notes of toffee so it’s a little sweet but delicious for just a starter) - Guinea fowl salad (the Guinea fowl is breaded but all in all the salad is one of the best Ive discovered) - lobster (perfectly done, not smothered in sauce, you can actually taste the lobster! The rice it comes with is also super yummy) Didn’t like the lamb, the sauce was way too sweet for our liking and you couldn’t actually taste the lamb. Felt like we were eating a bunch of sugar or honey, not a dinner meal. The service was a little slow at first until they realised we were waiting to be seated. There was no one by the entry and the bar staff adjacent were no help."

"Josu took care of me and my partner and we had entree, main and dessert along with an aperol. He’s been so good at service and also a pleasant person. Very elegant and professional. Food was the best I have ever had and the location was amazing."

"We booked a table at the Akana restaurant for diner. Not very well known due to the fact that it’s a big hotel I think. But it’s definitely worth checking it out. The hotel location is impressive and the restaurant’s dining rooms are cozy and well decorated. The plates are tasty with some great wines they have to offer make dining fabulous. And at prices that are very affordable I might add: The staff is exceptionally friendly, helpful and professional. Our waiter Sergio didn’t miss one little detail and treated us as the greatest guests. Everybody of our family had a great time so we’ll definitely be back for another perfect diner evening in GC."

"Food here is really good and the staff are very attentive. In particular, Helvert who worked in this restaurant was very attentive to my gluten allergy and looked to ensure it was accommodated properly and safely."

"A really different place to eat in Maspalomas! Akara is set in two quite small 'huts' within the huge and very impressive upper bar of the hotel - which is itself quite stunning architecturally. Back to Akara. The food was excellent, especially for us as pescatarians, and the service was courteous and precise. We would certainly eat there again if we were in the locality."

"Hummus wasn't good. Tuna Tartar, lamb, Tajin and apple Yuzu cake were so good. The atmosphere and the music were amazing. The waiter was so kind and helpful. I will definitely come back again."

"Excellent place with delicious food. Waiters make great recomendations about dishes. The atmosphere is very calm and serene."
