I have eaten at this restaurant several times for lunch. The food is fresh, well prepared and provided quickly. Best part is the welcome from the owners who make you feel at home.

It has a cosy atmosphere during to cold weather periods but also opens up for summer so you feel part of the beach atmosphere during the summer. A really hard balance to manage but the Casa del Lago team make it seem easy 👍

Edit: I came back to remove the 5 stars and add this message for the owner; Your food is good and staff friendly. But the black/white zero emotional intelligence in applying a rule that ice cream in cups (sold by your shop/staff 5 meters away) is unwise. I can understand your reasoning,  but if a couple eat 3 big meals with you within a week and then (while still finishing drinks) buy your ice cream and unknowingly break your secret rule, then you dont ask the guest to step outside. Rather offer to place the ice cream in desert plate to hide it from children and explain the unknown rule. It was not pleasant and we wont be back.
