Secret Garden Restaurant

This isn't just a restaurant it's an experience. The owners show love & passion in everything they do, from the delicious menu options down to the luxury hand soaps in the bathroom. The waiter was friendly and attentive with the owner introducing himself to us with the most beautiful refreshing jasmine hand towels... The atmosphere was a lovely relaxed ambience perfect for a date night or special occasion. The garden itself is a tranquil haven. The owners thrive in expansion as they currently adapt their business to create indoor rooms for the winter months so you can still enjoy their hospitality all year round. The food was great in flavours & different menu choices to your average Spanish night out. The desserts stood out to us with the white chocolate rose being a favourite. My 5 year old son loved the cheesecake he said it was the best he has had in all his 5 years.. The owners are friendly happy people who deserve the recognition for creating such a beautiful restaurant. A must go place.. cañillas is a beautiful village full of rustic charm.. 5 STARS FROM ME...

Had an amazing meal here the other night whilst on holiday. We were made to feel very welcome the moment we stepped in and the service from the hosts and wait staff was really excellent. We came here after a recommendation from our Air bnb host and the food definitely didn’t disappoint, it was stunning. The cocktails were amazing too (and huge!). The setting and atmosphere were lovely and I would definitely recommend. Thank you!

This restaurant is a hidden gem 💎. It is by far the best place in the whole region. The experience is comparable only to Michelin-Star-Restaurants, but the price is moderate. The design is unique and classy. A myriad of decent lights are carefully placed everywhere and create a comfortable and intimate atmosphere. The service is on point. The greeting and introduction was so friendly and sincere that one felt at ease and almost at home right away. The food was outstanding. Unique, with quality ingredients and harmonic taste in every dish. The presentation was pristine as well. I can only recommend this place and hope that many more people will be able to enjoy their meal here. Especially for romantic occasions, this is the place to go. Unfortunately, I am a tourist and will not be able to come here regularly, since it's more than a thousand miles from my home, but I will come back if I can find a way.

Secret Garden Restaurant in Canillas de Aceituno is a beautifully designed spot up in the mountains. The outdoor setting is full of greenery and decoration in the outside seating area I was in. I had Spring rolls, Korean BBQ chicken with a brownie and ice cream to finish, along with a bottle of white wine. All the meals were delicious and well presented. Prices were well matched to the warm and welcoming service from the staff. The owners, Seb and Eddie, a warm welcoming couple who are clearly dedicated into the place were very hospitable. Highly recommended for tourists visiting the area and looking for a special night out, or locals down the mountain wanting a peaceful evening. It’s mainly reservations only which keeps the atmosphere calm and quiet, perfect for a relaxing meal. Book ahead, but worth planning for.

The menu offers a balance of well-executed classics and innovative surprises. Every bite feels thoughtfully prepared, and the presentation is as delightful as the taste.

Altogether, this restaurant combines an inviting atmosphere, extraordinary food, and attentive service. Highly recommended for those who appreciate both the artistry of cuisine and a genuinely welcoming dining experience.
