We booked well in advance as knew it was popular, and it certainly did not disappoint. both hosts were truly wonderful and served all of our needs perfectly.
Food was beautiful, filling, well priced and presented.
They decorated our table and made us feel very welcome with fantastic communication throughout. Also very friendly and funny service whilst we dined. Strongly recommend a visit. Many thanks for everything."

"We went to Ian’s tonight as I’d heard amazing things. We booked months in
Advance and I also ordered a fresh lobster.
Our food and hosts were amazing. I can’t find a single fault. Apart from I wish I had more belly space. I didn’t have room for a pudding.
I’m already looking forwards to going again and making my way through some different items on the menu.
Thank you so much for such an amazing night.
This is a MUST GO TO for any foodie travelling to Benidorm."
