Seafront Italian restaurant
4.7 (5)Puerto de la Cruz20-35 €


Masamia is a seafront Italian restaurant in Puerto de la Cruz where the terrace is part of the meal. Reviews praise the view, calm music, blankets on cooler evenings, attentive service, tiramisu, cocktails and Neapolitan-style pizza with a soft, pliable base.
That pizza style is worth spelling out. If you prefer a crisp Tuscan-style base, Masamia may not be your ideal pizzeria; if you like soft Neapolitan dough, Italian ingredients and a long meal by the water, it is a strong north-side option. The menu also covers pasta and seafood-leaning dishes, so it works better as a full Italian dinner than a fast pizza stop.

A wonderfully located restaurant with elevated views spanning across the beautiful seafront. The pizzas were beautifully made and so delicious, the staff were wonderful and friendly, the music playing was classy and chilled, the atmosphere was calm and relaxing. They even offered blankets. We could not have asked for a better place to have dinner. Brilliant!! ❤️

Good service and great food, though cod portion was too small. Even though I don't eat much I would like it to be bigger or at least with the veggies on the side. Tiramisu and cocktails were amazing. Great view from the terrace and blankets available.

Wanted to get lunch near our Airbnb and stopped at this place. It surpassed my expectations! This pizza and pasta tasted so authentic and yummy. The waiter was also very nice. Ate right by the water too.

We had a dinner with our family and friends. First time and definitely will come more and more. We have admit it is the first and Real pizza napolitana in the North of tenerife. We tried 3 of them and I swear that nothing like that exists in Tenerife. Fresh, contemporary, very delicate flavour. All ingredients from Italy. Prices 100% match the quality and meet expectations. It has triple L location and of course stunning view. The Chef and his team are making your dining spectacular and even entertaining - we were cutting pizzas ourselves with individual scissors! And OMG what an unbelievable aftertaste we have. Bravo! Complimenti! From now we are lucky - we have a real Italian pizza!

Being Italian it's dangerous to go to an "Italian" restaurant and not be over critical. Lets start with the good side, Silvia, the waitress, was really attentive... possibly as we spoke Italian she gravitated towards us but both waiters were good. Ok, we were 1 of 2 tables so maybe service needs to be tested with more clients. The food. I was with my dad and he ordered the melanzane parmiggiana (aubergine/eggplant parmiggiana) and the vitello tonnato. I ordered a Parmiggiana pizza. The melanzane looked good but the cook had put some burrata cream on top... when you have perfection, as aubergine parmiggiana is, no need to get creative. I am all for the cook to get creative, just not with staple Italian dishes. The vitello tonnato, looked good and tasted as it should. No surprises there. As for the pizza, it was Napoletana style, which for me is not an issue but for someone like my wife, is, as she does not like the bendy/chewie dough and prefers the more Tuscan style "hard" base pizza. Slightly too much cheese on the pizza which is fine when the pizza is hot but it cools fast and becomes too rubbery. I loved the fact that they brought scissors to cut the pizza, that was a first
