“manager wants sacking his attitude stinks ”

Written on: 10/11/2012 by SadieBaxenden

We decided as it was our last night to go to Aberdeen Steakhouse in las America. We have dined here on numerous occasions and it,s been fine, not this time. there was a young girl outside the restauant trying to persuade everyone passing to join them for dinner. We sat at our table ordered drinks first while we perused the menu. My husband and myself opted for Ribeye Steak medium to well done, mine with canarian potatoes and my huisband,s with chips. A there was only two other couples in... (read more)

“Give it up.”

Written on: 19/07/2012

Was looking forward to having some great meals here the one just past santiago 1 &2. Like 18months ago. I had read bad reports but couldn't beleive them. Now i can. I ordered the set 3 course menu. When i had nearly finished my soup i found a small cockroach lying in the bottom of the bowl. When i told the waiter all he said was sorry. No complimentary drink or reduction in price!!!. All he was interested in was watching the fooball while holding 3 plates of food destined for customers... (read more)

“lemonade in lap”

Written on: 18/07/2012 by owwwwhrochelle

This was one of the worst restaurant experiences of my life. Poor service is an underestimation. The waiter spent the entire time texting on his phone, he lied about how much money we had given him, short changed us and attempted to give us a lesson on tipping in Tenerife. To top it off threw a drink on our friend's lap. The chicken should be described as dry rope, the bacon should come with a health warning and the battered cod came in uncooked breadcrumbs! The food was cheap but I wouldn't... (read more)

Written on: 02/11/2010

Was on holiday with partner and two children in Tenerife. Went to Aberdeen Steakhouse because we wanted to try out this 3 course meal for less than '8. What really caught my eye about the meal was that the main course was fillet steak. The starter was down as chicken liver pate. I have never seen pate like it. It smelled of chicken but tasted of fish. It also had the texture of tuna. Neither my partner nor I could eat the steak at all (tough is not the word for it). The two children... (read more)

The rudest manager I have ever met is destroying the reputation of Aberdeen Steakhouse.

My wife and I had been regular customers for breakfast at this particular Aberdeen Steak house almost every morning for over a week, or until one evening we decided to taste their T-bone steak.

We ordered medium rear like usual, but what we got would have made every vampire mad of desire.
After a short fight with our steak knives we gave up. Even after the kook had given the steaks some more time on the... (read more)

My boyfriend and I went to Tenerife from 8/9/10 - 15/9/10. It was our 2nd last day and we were running low on Euros as we splashed out on lovely meals throughout the week. We walked past Aberdeen Steak House near Los Cristianos and saw a 3 course meal for '7.95, we decided to give it a go. The worst decision of the holiday. You definitely get what you pay for. Firstly, when ordering our food we were rushed to order starter, main and a dessert (first time ever we have been asked to order... (read more)

i went to this Aberdeen steak house and first impressions were ok. then the food started to arrive.me and my wife had starters and they were disgusting the main course was also not good. the vegetables was clearly not fresh and was full of water i would say that it was cheap stuff from the supermarket. Now for the best bit! The owner and one of the chefs who worked there was having a row and almost broke out into a fight in front of my two children. when my wife confronted the owner about...

The ABERDEEN RESTAURANT located in front of Burger King in Playa de las Americas is the most disgusting and repugnant place (because something like that cannot be called restaurant) I HAVE EVER EATEN!!!!!!

The quality of food was very very low and they charged me extra money for many things which already appeared included in the price that the flyer they give in the street shows.

They took advantage of me because i did not speak the language, i order before 6pm and they wait to... (read more)

We were 15 girls eating there one night. 6 of the girls were eating tuna and tomatoes, and suddenly one of the girl's lips swelled, and two of the girls were very red in theirs swelling heads, and they could not breathe. The 3 others were not feeling well, and we ask the waiter to call 911. He did it, and the girls came on the hospital.
The girls there were left was forced to pay the bill, because the owner said, that it was a trick to get rid of the bill. We have only eaten the starters,... (read more)

We arrived at this restaurant just before the ambulance arrived - I got steak, but was left wondering what steak was it, it didn't appear to be beef !!! We never returned. you should create a you tube song to raise awareness of what happened to you that night

I went to the Aberdeen Steakhouse opposite the Columbus hotel, when I ordered water what I got was a dirty, pre opened bottle that seemed as though it had been filled with tap water, when I reported this to the waiter it took them 10 minutes to go to a shop and get me some new bottles of unopened water.
I was given a starter of bread which I was later charged for and what I thought to be a complimentary jug of sambuca, which I was later charged 12 euro for. (read more)

We ate at the Aberdeen Steak House opposite the Columbus Hotel in Playa. The service was poor. We waited 15 minutes to get our drinks and the food took about an hour.
We were seated at the back of the restaurant and were the last to leave, it was quite late. I left my digital camera on the table when we left and when I went back, the place was closed. I went back first thing the next morning but the manager denied having seen it. (read more)

Written on: 28/01/2006 by michael1704 (1 review written)

We ate at the Aberdeen Steak House every night from our 2nd visit. We tried a variety of items from the menu and found them all to be very pleasant, swiftly delivered, and by friendly, courteous and helpful staff. To be fair, the bacon over there is not quite what we're used to in the UK but this was pretty much 'the norm' for most places in Tenerife. Those who did offer British (or Danish) bacon did advertise the fact and this would've been preferable.

Whilst the two previous reviews are... (read more)

Written on: 25/01/2010

I think this review was fair. Most of the reviews are out of date and visitor expectations unfair. When you are in Rome etc! I have visited these steak houses which there are over 20 on the island you have to remember all meat is imported .. did you see any cows! when have you paid £7 for a 3 course meal in England? and then moan about it? get real you get what you pay for .. yes I have had bad meals there too but also extremely good ones and when treating the Canarians with respect have had excellent service. Unfortunately they are catering for the Brits needs and manners and need I say more ..

Written on: 26/06/2004 by mjpleusch (1 review written)

We ate at an Aberdeen Ateakhouse near to the seafront next to a Ruffles Steak House. The garlic mushrooms came in a clotted white gunge that was so unpleasant we ate one mushroom from the two portions. The garlic bread was bread with margarine and some garlic scrapings dropped onto it. The mixed grill had meat that was clearly well old and the sausage was mush. We tried to cancel our order during the starters but were not allowed to as the main course had been cooked. In the meantime,... (read more)

Of the 2 Aberdeen Steak houses we tried the one at the beach front around Playa De Las Vistas (towards Los Cristianos) was good for a cheap late breakfast. The one near the football ground and close to Apartmentos Piramides was very poor. It was cramped, Very smokey and at the end of the day we didn't actualy eat as they forgot to cook our meal. Avoid this one. They made us pay 3.5 Euros for 2 bread rolls and 2 drinks. I'm sure other Aberdeen Steak Houses are good but don't go to this one. (read more)
