Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Characteristic, rustic, typically Canarian place; quite large place, with adjoining bar and sale of local products including, above all, goat's cheeses and jars of various sauces.
We start with an appetizer, after the bread served with a garlic sauce, which here, in Fuerteventura, is generally a dish on the menu and therefore paid for, with a plate of mussels both with green mojo and red, I think with a base of tomato and garlic, while my wife opted for a platter of various cheeses, exclusively goat's, and cold cuts; the platter was very tasty, the mussels were particular and spicy, but still appetizing.
We proceed with a second course where we taste both fish, a fillet, I think, of sea bream or sea bass, with potatoes, absolutely normal, and the famous goat stew, good but not exceptional; It must be said, however, that the dishes are plentiful. We finish with the dessert, a similar version of Catalan cream filled with goat's ricotta instead of cream, still very good. Espresso coffee, undrinkable!
As for wine, a local rosé, pleasant and tasty, a good rosé all in all, note that the wine list is well assorted and with a wide choice.
The service was fast, friendly and helpful staff, unfortunately no one speaks even a little Italian, nor are there menus written in Italian, however good value for money; I confirm that it is a restaurant especially for purely Canara-based venues.
For what I tasted, which certainly wasn't the best, but I would have had to translate the entire menu with Google translate which was impossible, I had to go a bit at random, I would give 3 dots, while for the location and the service 4 .

The place is nice with very large, bright rooms and a nice outdoor terrace, where we sat down for dinner. We arrived at 7.15pm knowing that it closed at 9.30pm, the waitress explained the menu to us and was very kind, the starter of filo pastry filled with chicken curry was good, and the glass of red wine we asked for was also good. As a second course we ordered a beef churrasco, the meat was almost inedible, stringy and chewy.. it may have been a coincidence but rating 2.. average price

I returned to this place because every time in Fuerteventura it deserves a stop. We ate a sea bream and a baked sea bass, exceptional, fresh and doughy. Other times I had eaten lamb which was also good. The kindness of the staff contributed to my good mood on a windy and gray day despite the thermometer reading 27 degrees. I recommend it a welcoming restaurant.

I recommend not to go to the restaurant don pepe located in the Dutch park. I'll explain why. I went to eat with my family, both the attention and the lousy service and the lousy food also good the last review according to my family because I was not served my plate, after waiting almost two hours and seeing how all the members of my table ate I asked them if it was long before they brought my plate asked me what I had ordered and I told him that fried squid one thing you do in nothing but of course if the waiter who served us did not write anything down because he had no command if he did not do it from memory in a table of 12 people. Totally that I ran out of food, they brought me the plate when the others were with dessert, logically I told them that I no longer wanted it. They left me as I said before without eating, I only had dessert that miraculously if they brought it to me. Where a waiter has been seen tending to such a large table without a commander. No apologies or anything.
I don't recommend it at all. I'd never come back.

The food was disappointing, soaked in oil. For this, the main course, contrary to the promise, was deep-fried instead of fried.
The coffee was not exactly the calling card of the house - free of coffee bean flavor.

This restaurant is by the side of the coastal road, just south of the sand dunes. It was supposed to be a quick.stop but turned into full lunch. Delicious variety of tapas and large salads as well as all the usual. Serving staff are attentive and do not leave you long. Try the coffee, it's roasted on Fuerteventura and is the best I've had here so far. You can buy water etc as there is a little deli type shop. Great find !

We ate here several times in 2019 and was really impressed so couldn’t wait to go back this year…..☹️ not good, nothing wrong with the service the guys n girls work hard but the food wasn’t anywhere near as good as it used to be…. 3 different plates, 1 fillet steak not a good cut at all was cooked ok but the piece was bad and the sauces were awful. Roast Chicken n chips for a fussy eater wasn’t great a bit undercooked and again the sauce was bad. Best of the bunch was mixed tortillas that was nice but extras guacamole etc was again bland. There’s a similar restaurant a few doors up serving same food but a lot better.

Se ha equivocado de Restaurante a la hora de hacer el comentario. Nuestro restaurante está en Parrque Holandés, no tenemos ningún otro restaurante en 15 km. No hacemos comida mejicana tampoco. Le pedimos que modifique su reseña al restaurante correcto.

Had dinner at Don Pepe's last night, we were made to feel welcome as soon as we walked in. We were served by a lovely waiter who was very friendly and knowledgeable. We had the Seafood platter for two which was superb, with prawns, baby calamari, locally caught fish, potatoes and a salad. The waiter chose a bottle of Lanzarote Malvasia wine which was excellent. The service was fast and unintrusive. Including coffee and service our bill came to €55.10 which was amazing. We were in Lanzarote last year and the same meal set us back €90 for a much less pleasant meal. We will definitely be returning to Don Pepe again.

Went here for dinner with a friend. Service was quick, staff friendly and welcoming, food is amazing. We had pizza and paella... both dishes cooked fresh, server made sure we knew we would have to wait because it's cooked from scratch. Well worth waiting that little bit extra time. Plus gave us time to chat in comfortable surroundings.

I recommend this restaurant in Fuerteventura. We stopped here for lunch. We had fish soup, mussels, calamari and fish of the day. The lunch was very very delicious - in our opinion that was the best place to try local food. We received very good advice from the waiter. We will definitely come back next time we visit the island. :)

Stumbled upon this place as we were exploring the island and just as we were starting to feel hungry.
We were instantly made to feel so welcome despite our limited Spanish vocabulary. Lovely food ; fabulous service and attention. The menu is extensive and they have a good specials board on a Sunday with lots of traditional Spanish dishes. Very reasonably priced and a lovely terrace to enjoy your food.
Thankyou. We will be back before we go return home.

This is our first time here . Our server was the most moody person I have met here in Fuerteventura. Apparently working here for 25 years. Well I have never felt so uncomfortable in my life. Shout out to Jordan and the rest of the staff. But our server whom has been here 25 years needs a massive attitude adjustment. I travel all over the world. And I don’t think I’ve ever felt so uncomfortable. I have given a 5* because the food and the rest of the staff are amazing. Whatever his name is he needs a holiday an a new attitude. He’s letting this restaurant down. Not often I leave a review. But I’m feeling like this needs to be said.

This is the third year my husband and I have stayed in Corralejo and we have visited Don Pepe every time. Never had a bad experience, staff are very pleasant and friendly, food is always good. When we visited a couple of days ago the food was exceptional-my husband had fillet steak which he said was just perfect, I had pork fillet which was also perfect and there was a lot of it. No complaints at all and we will be visiting again before we go home.
