5/10The meal was bland nothing awful just a little tasteless and overpriced compared with other restaurants offering better food . The wine list was very narrow and again overpriced .The Fork discount was not applied ( and I had to ask for it ) a service charge was actively chased as was a review and overall it had a touristy feel perhaps appropriate given it’s on the sidewalk overlooking Puerto Banus harbour

5.5/10The quality of meat was bad. We ordered black angus ribeye, but I think because of that we had discount they served normal local ribeye. We have restaurant and we work with meat so we know perfectly the meat. And also it not was 300gr how saying in the menu. 😐 maybe 200+-.

7.5/10Food superb. Sat inside next to door which was kept open most of the time so kept jacket on. Fantastic offer from The Folk made it well worth while

9.5/10The food was exceptional. My son and I shared a chateaubriand which was cooked perfectly and came with a warming tray to finish slices off as you like them. Everyone in our party enjoyed theirs too. Portions were large. It seemed good value to us at €75 pp including drinks. The only reason I didn’t give a 5 for service was the wait time we experienced when we arrived, although it was great from then on.

5/10Bad experience. I had a reservation and I called from a private number saying that I would be late - it should be noted that the reservation has my number - and they simply hung up the phone in my face. When I placed my order it was wrong. Unattentive employees wanting to 'dispatch' people. They suggest 10% tip but they don't deserve it! Not to repeat. There are better quality restaurants in Puerto Banus and more professional and friendly employees !!!!

8/10The restaurant is at the prime location just in front of luxury yachts. Great place to go if you are looking for some good meat.

10/10Great service! Nicely located at the harbour of Puerto Banus. We had the mixed grill, it was good and enough for 2. The chorizo was quite salty, but the rest was really nice. Would recommend this place for nice meat and great service.

3.5/10We booked thinking town would be busy and had limited options for times, but on arrival it was clear that we were likely to be the only table. We were given menus but items and prices varied between the two. We were overcharged on the staters and drinks, and misled on the main. The service was non-existent. An expensive yet thoroughly disappointing visit.

5.5/10The wine is served without showing the bottle and hot. The restaurant was empty and I requested attention. The waiter near me did not respond and pointed another waiter that was on the mobile phone....we were not treated well.

9.5/10Wow! What a superb ending of our Vacation. Here with 4 kids (boys age 11-17) and husband. They come to the table and present the different kinds of meat. We got it on big plates in the middle of the table and shared. They also put a hot stone om the table so If you want to you can fry the meat more (comes in medium/rare). The kids absolutely loved it! The dessert was also to die for… If you love meat, this is the place to go! Will come back, for sure.

10/10Really nice. We always come here. It’s just shame they ran out of few dishes which my fiancée chosen to order. I’d suggest to let the client know in advance when menu is handed. This will avoid disappointment

10/10We had a lovely evening, the restaurant staff were friendly and the food was delicious. We had calamari to start followed by the mixed grill which had a great variety and was very tasty. We were celebrating by husbands 40th birthday and unfortunately he was quite full from all the eating and drinking throughout the day so didn’t manage too much of the food but I made up for that and thoroughly enjoyed it! Many thanks!

6/10The food was ok, obviously overpriced because of the location (although the location is horrible as people walk by your side all the time). The most annoying bit is they charge you £2 per tiny bread they give you (even if you don’t ask for it).. I go regularly to Puerto Banus and will never come back to this restaurant, typical tourist rape off.

3.5/10Very welcoming initially but once we were sat down with a drink it became very indifferent. Food was average and steaks didn't seem to be great quality. Wouldn't recommend and certainly won't go back.
