Gran Canaria - Puerto Rico - Restaurante Pizzicato
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2025
- In this episode we head to Pizzicato in Puerto Rico, Gran Canaria.
This restaurant is ranked 12th on TripAdvisor, so we go in to see if it lives up to the high ratings.
Inside, we sample the garlic Focaccia Bread with Cheese to start.
For mains, Jacqui tries the Tetrazzini for the first ever time and Jamie tries a diavolo pizza.
We give our overall assessment of our experience.
Where will this score on the scale of 5 Jacqui's? Will it be a perfect 5 or will it disappoint?

J&J’s grill next door is a much better restaurant I personally thought. Really nice food and the Polish guy that serves there is a real character lol.
@Darren-f3g I'd imagine it probably is. We weren't impressed with put experience in Pizzicato
Good honest review and great videos, going next year and good to see honest reviews lovely place puerto rico
@@AaronBowler-db3nz thank you Aaron good to hear. Hope you found it useful.
Loved the vlog can’t wait for more ❤️💙
@cherylbailey1736 thank you Cheryl. Just trying out some short sharper restaurant reviews to see how they go. Glad you enjoyed it.
@@continentalcoxons ❤️💙
Hi mate, we loved the Tipsy Bee and the Italian place just behind there. We did not think much of Gran Canaria. Morgan Mall is where we spent our nights out. Greek islands for us.
We like Gran Canaria, but I think you need to explore it more, the middle.of the island is stunning up in the mountains.
Appreciate it's not for everyone and Greece does have more authenticity about it.
Good to see you back in Gran Canaria. Only restaurant we use up there is the Greek one Rhodos Palace. Hard to find a good Italian in most resorts, the best we've had was Italian Job in Playa Blanca, (Papagayo center) Lanzatote. Have you ever thought of trying Lanzarote in future? Enjoying the lateat GC vlogs . 👍🙂
@keithglasgow5146 yes, we're always open to trying to different places. We don't usually like to repeat ourselves too much so do usually like to go different destinations.
Apparently Pinnochios is meant to be excellent in the main CC here in PR.
Few have said Rhodos Palace meant to be good.
@@continentalcoxons Also, if you like a good hot Indian, Happy Valley in the main Puerto Rico commercial centre is excellent. (know three very good ones in Playa Blanca as well). Enjoying your videos.
@keithglasgow5146 thanks Keith
Hi,Pinochios is great,l would reccomend it,maybe next time.
Bummer! Always disappointing to come across not-so-great food. “Herbie goes bananas” 😂. Looking good, guys!
Thank you. Yes very disappointing considering the high rating. I guess they cant all be bangers.
Ha ha, you caught my little comment 😅
Loving all of these GC videos
Just found your channel and Newcastle is our local airport
We normally go around March -April and get cheap Ryanair flights from Newcastle
Think we paid £13.99 each on the way out in April -such a bargain
Looking forward to all of the other videos
@SarahDon-do2rk well, welcome to the channel Sarah, glad you've found us and hopefully our videos are useful for you. We did some in GC in 2022 as well if you haven't already seen them.
Never been there (won't be now) 😅 but Harbour Light's is excellent especially the breakfast. Poor Jacqui bet she was starving !
It was pretty poor unfortunately, surprising given the high rating.
Maybe we hit the place at the wrong time or on a bad night.
Can only judge on our experience, though.
Many people seem to enjoy it.
Should of gone to Rhodos Palace guys just a little way along from there, staff have always been great and the food spot on.
Yes, know exactly where you mean. Remember passing it back in 2022, Part of the same block as Pizzicato. Maybe next time.
Hi guys! Me and my girlfriend are flying out tomorrow from Manchester! When are you there till? We watched all of your videos previously and absolutely loved your vlogs of Puerto Rico! We are so delighted that you are there now! Would love to bump into you! You gave us a great insight of the island!
Hi Jarrod. We aren't actually there anymore. We filmed this early in the year and only putting them out now for personal reasons at the time.
@@continentalcoxons aww we are gutted! But thank you! We know the island like the back of our hands thanks to your vlogs! Take care!
@JarrodUpton thank you. Enjoy your holiday.
The greek place at the end is really good! You should try El Cenador at the olas centre thats good and also bandidos in the Commercial centre!
@samcook2773 yeah we've heard that from.someone in the comment about the Greek place. Too many restaurants too little time.
@continentalcoxons that's how we felt in the 10 days we where there's we didn't have a bad meal when we was there the least fav was tipsy bee felt it was over hyped for what it was but the drinks are well worth a visit alone!!! when we went to tenerife food was rubbish everywhere we went and restaurants trying to scam you out of money if ur not careful!! Going to saluo in a couple weeks!!!
We always seem to find the food in Spain isn't that great in the holiday destinations to be honest. It is completely catered for the tourist sonfind it is probably all just made up together and rushed out. A lot of the places are all very similar too infind, in terms of what's on the menu's.
@continentalcoxons yeah can be like that tenerife was shockingly bad but gran canaria we didn't have a bad meal! We would love to go to Greece but unfortunately it's was a little too expensive this time 😢
We’re here now but think we’ll give that a miss - will be heading to VIP at some point. Did have breakfast next door at Harbour Lights a couple of days ago which was decent.
@@davepage1151 enjoy your holiday
We had a meal at the tipsy bee last year and we thought it was just horrible..get better in wether spoons lol.horrible gritty chicken,I had barbecue ribs so salty .we got are money back .and I've never sent food back in my life.The Italian next to Oscar's was lovely and the restaurants on the beach very good 👍👍
Oh really? That's disappointing to hear as we've always had good food in Tipsy Bee.
@@continentalcoxons yeah lovely place , people and drinks , maybe it was a off night on our dishes lol.we had a lobster brisk at hotel Puerto mogan the restaurant underneath it was delicious and the best sangria I ever had .. highly recommend x
What time of the year did you go this time? looks to be a bit chilly there in the evening,looking at what people are wearing .
It was the early part if the year so it was a bit chillier at night. Still lovely through the day though
Gets chilly on eve any time there , as your by the sea
@@peterhomer4825 Thanks 👍
@@continentalcoxons thanks 👍
Me and the mrs both ended up with food poisoning after visiting this establishment
@garyjohnson3751 oh did you really? That's interesting to hear. However after our experience we aren't too surprised.
Have yous been to DaPinocchio main shopping centre food is class there
@martinnolan7245 no not been yet but heard great things about it. If we ever get back, its on our hitlist for next time
shame about that, I have eaten there once last summer and thought it was nice at the time, but in the end of the day you can only give your honest opinion on your personal experience.
@paulstanando1975 yeah it's all based on personal experience. It must be good in someway if it's as highly rated. Could be just what we ordered or a bad day in the kitchen for all we know.
@continentalcoxons if you return to Puerto Rico, I highly recommend the hotel XQ Vistamar next door to Frans, it's self catering and just been refurbished.
@paulstanando1975 thanks for the recommendation.
It’s just not kalamaki 😎🇬🇷😉
No, but to be fair there are some tremendous restaurants here too. This just wasn't one of them.
How did that bill come out at 48€ ?!
@Postkort it'll be mainly down to the bottle of wine. Usually around 18€ or so for that, then the time you add the starter and 2 mains on, it adds up.
@@continentalcoxons Oh ok.. Makes more sense then.. :P
@Postkort yes, wine always increases the bill
True! But if “House wine” is more then half the bill, I still think it’s a bit much.. ☺️
Wow…didn’t look good…and for a Diablo where were the chillies ???? Not sure on the pasta either, the chicken looked “non existent” ! Harbour Lights next door was our local the first time we stayed….. but it wasn’t an Irish bar then 😊 Defo a 2 😮
Yeah it wasn't great. Pizza was just salty really, no tomato base.
Pasta was pretty poor too. Lots of people love the place, maybe it was an off night.
We can only judge on our experience of course.
Thank goodness it wasn't or will be on our list. VIP is. Terrible to pay €50+ for rubbish food and service.
For pizza, VIP is an absolute must. Fantastic pizza. At least the wine was good here. That's about the most positive I could be about the experience. Thosnisnjust our experience too, someone else may have a great experience. We can only say how ours was.
@@continentalcoxons honest opinion is what we all like. X
@fidelmakearney6015 you'd be amazed how many people don't having done this for a while.
@@continentalcoxons keyboard warriors no doubt
@fidelmakearney6015 more than likely
You suffered so we don't have to.
🤣 that's one way of putting it I guess
Can't win them all
No, we don't seem to have much luck in PR with food for some reason.
I take it that you both will not be revisiting! There's 's nothing about being open and honest.
Bob
No and we'd be lying to ourselves if we dressed it up any other way. That's the whole point of us doing it, to provide honesty in our experience. Of course, it is justvour own personal experience, someone may have a great experience. Could also be the dishes we chose. Definitely not in a rush to head back though.
