Pizzeria El Lago is a seafront pizzeria in Puerto de la Cruz where the view is part of the order. Reviews praise pizza shared at the table, fresh burgers, efficient smiling service and drinks that are better than expected, including a Pina Colada one guest called the best they had tried.
This is not a strict pizza-only specialist. It works as a relaxed tourist-friendly lunch or dinner with sea views, cocktails and enough choice for a group. The brownie gets unusually strong praise too, so leave room if you want a sweet finish.

Casual mains
A useful non-pizza option if the table wants more than slices.

Cocktails are better than an afterthought here.

One review gives the brownie unusually strong praise.
Format
Good when a table wants pizza, burgers and drinks together.

Guest review summary
Commonly mentioned by visitors.
Pizza with a sea view is the clearest reason to choose it.
Burgers, brownie and cocktails give the menu more range than a basic pizzeria.
Staff are described as pleasant and efficient, including for groups.
Because it is broad and seafront, treat it as a relaxed group meal rather than a purist Italian pizzeria.

Cracking pizza, with a sea view...
Food: We just had a selection of pizza and shared - but it was great, enjoyed by all. Pina Colada was the best I've had!
Environment: There is a selection of seating outside, under light cover and some available inside. Light music and the sea view gives a lively but relaxing vibe.
Service: Really friendly servers, taking interest in where we were from and speaking to our two little boys. Service was prompt and helpful.
