Restaurants cuisine du monde Canary Islands

A few tables installed on the terrace facing the sea and under the tamarisk trees, this is clearly the great asset of this restaurant. Specialized in Italian cuisine, you will also find honest fish soups, grilled fish like tuna steaks and nice salads, all well presented by a rather pleasant staff. To access the terrace, it is better to reserve or arrive in advance. Otherwise, the large dining room is fully glazed and the views will be nice but you might as well aim for the terrace. Very efficient staff.

In the 80's, it was the very first of the restaurants launched by the owners who own two others, in Playa Honda and Playa Blanca. The first setting was a small fisherman's house with a small piece of land, facing the sea. But in 2008, it became what it is today, a large restaurant, a beautiful terrace facing the sea, something to sit with your feet in the sand. As far as your taste buds are concerned, priority is given to the freshness of the fish caught in the traditional way and to the quality of the meats and rice served.

This address is a little off the beaten track from the classic visits to La Laguna, but it is worth the detour. First of all for the beautiful garden she offers her guests, then for the cuisine, delicious Portuguese specialties. Don't miss the bacalao accompanied by rice of course, resting on its tomato sauce, olives and white onions poached over a low heat, the tuna croquettes or the crunchy prawns. This restaurant is for lovers of fish and seafood, but also rice, three different are served.

To change local cuisine, delicious Italian cuisine with the menu of course many delicious fresh pasta and pizzas, lasagna of meat and vegetables, and also risottos to seafood, fish,… and a long map of Italian wines.

Nice view for a beachfront restaurant: a pretty house with yellow ochre walls and stone corners and a large terrace facing the sea. You will enjoy tapas and Dantean salads including house salad, raw vegetables and fruit, well-prepared squid, cheese sandwiches with tomato marmalade. Above all, we recommend you try the moreno en camisa, a delicious chocolate cake. If the sun hits too hard, the interior is a fallback solution, with a nice decoration.

This small restaurant is housed in a beautiful 1893 building. The Canarian cuisine is good and family-style and, above all, the quality-price ratio defies all competition, as the dishes, even the starters, are copious, not to say lavish. Vegetarians can opt for a parillada of green vegetables, accompanied by Canarian cheese. The accompanying mojos are satisfactory, although the fish is frozen, but at least displayed as such.

The restaurant and its two large terraces overlook the harbour and offer different specialties of fresh fish and seafood.

Right on the beach, El Senador offers you its seafood specialties with fish, prawns, octopus, squid, paellas (including the one from the sea), salmon carpaccio. And its star dish in this area is the sea bass with salt, lubina a la sal. On the meat side, there will be beautiful pieces from Galicia. But also salads and Canarian dishes such as homemade croquettes of cuttlefish and shrimp, or those with Iberian ham, and a wide range of pastas and pizzas served on a pleasant terrace and moreover with a warm welcome.

There was a time when this place only offered fish and seafood directly from the Agaete fish market. Today this is not always the case, so it is better to explicitly ask for fresh fish of the day, otherwise it will be frozen. Or else we'll opt for mussels. Unlike many Canarian restaurants, it does not serve large portions and the side dishes are a bit frugal. Its real and perhaps only more, its beautiful view of the port and the sea from its terrace which remains pleasant for lunch or dinner.

In a typical bodega setting, it's the ideal restaurant to try all the Canarian dishes, such as Canarian soups. Bodegon Viana is always full, as it's very popular with the locals. Great atmosphere. One menu, but you can also try the house specialties à la carte. You can, for example, try morcilla, a kind of black pudding also eaten on the peninsula, but in the Canaries it's filled with dried fruit and tastes like gingerbread. Good value and hearty portions.

This restaurant is set on a magnificent site, with its terrace overlooking the sea, from which it took its name and one of its first advantages. Le Piscis also specialises in grilled fish and seafood. The menu is quite extensive, but we can recommend the homemade fish soup as well as the sea bass cooked in its salt crust. His paellas are also appreciated. One will notice his good selection of wines. An address to be discovered even if it remains a little expensive.

You don't come to Fado Rock if you're looking for a quiet and intimate atmosphere. It is the largest restaurant in Caleta, with a cafeteria look, specialising in grilled exotic meats, crocodile, kangaroo or ostrich. But there will also be some more traditional stuff like Argentine steak. It is really worth it if you are a meat lover, as they are of excellent quality and accompanied by good sauces. If the decibels seem a bit loud, you can always opt for the pleasant terrace.

Located in one of the most pleasant squares in Santa Cruz, this restaurant offers a varied menu and a warm welcome. On the restaurant's menu, foie gras mousse with caramelised cheese and La Palma honey, assorted local cheeses with mojos and La Palma honey, tuna tart, ravioli, magret, mussels a la plancha, hummus, salads... and local wines. The bistro will make you discover a large choice of tapas and delicacies. Its small terrace is very sought after, especially by tourists, so it is best to book or come early.

It is sometimes difficult to find this restaurant, located on the heights of Adeje, but this small effort is rewarded. This is a charming place, known and appreciated for its two great Canarian specialities, chicken with garlic and rabbit in spicy sauce, conejo en salmojero. Its other plus, its beautiful terrace allowing panoramic views and recommended at sunset time when the mountain turns red. It is useful to make a reservation, especially at the weekend, and to specify that you want the terrace.

This Templete is one of the best restaurants in El Medano. Situated a little away from the beach, it is quite quiet, even though it is located in a shopping centre. Moreover, its terrace is very appreciable and appreciated. On the tasting side, it is the Mecca of fresh fish that you can visualize before tasting and that you will appreciate for example by ordering a black cherry served a la plancha and accompanied by your dads. Canarian atmosphere also on the meat side with cochino negro or cabrito embarrado, a typical dish of Gomera.

Don't stop at his outward appearance. The restaurant doesn't look like much and is even a bit difficult to identify. You have to enter the house to appreciate its charm. It is an old traditional Canarian house with a nice interior patio where you can sit down to eat. Or he may prefer the covered terrace which, upstairs, offers a beautiful view of the ocean. Lovers of meat and fish will be served as there will be both. Let yourself be tempted by garlic soup too. Very helpful staff.

Located above the Safari shopping centre, this former restaurant was completely renovated in 2012. But it remains a reference or even a must-see of Asian cuisine in the south of Tenerife. Of course, sushi will be served, but the range of dishes is much wider since the menu contains more than seventy dishes. We can venture to choose the Teppenayaki which allows to discover 5 different dishes. All being prepared in front of you with great dexterity. Do not hesitate to reserve a table especially on weekend evenings.

This casa roja, which deserves its name, is ideally located on the port. With a very beautiful room, but also a terrace that allows you to enjoy the view of the sea or a sunset. The restaurant offers a traditional cuisine, but with finely chosen products and a refined presentation. To test for example a pulpo a la brasa with chimichurri sauce and papas arrugadas. But the place is above all an excellent wine bar, ideal to discover the wines of the island with the very good advice of the team.

It is in this Italian restaurant that the local youth meets. It must be said that the welcome is particularly friendly, and that you can enjoy the terrace with a beautiful view on the playa de las Vistas. The menu is varied, with pizzas of course, including vegan variations, but also more sophisticated proposals such as a good fresh fish tartar. The two Italian owners have other addresses in the same street, for example, the Piccolo Paladar Restaurante, which also serves very good pizzas.

This small and typical restaurant is located on the heights of Masca, in the oldest part of the village, near the museum and far from the tourist buses. First pleasure, from the terrace, you will be able to enjoy a superb view of the barranco (ravine) of Masca. But this is not the only pleasure, because this house will serve you cheese and cold cuts, which a chicken or a peacock from the area will probably covet. If you order them, you can also eat local specialties (rabbit, goat, etc.).

Its logo in the shape of a stylized goat's head shows its speciality: goat meat, since this is the little name it is given in majorero language. And in this area it is considered the best in the city, with cooking times that must last more than five hours to guarantee absolute tenderness. All of this is accompanied by the small vegetables that also make this stew a success. But his ambitions also push him to develop new flavours, associated with traditional dishes. Excellent reception in a nice setting.

I fell in love with this restaurant which doesn't look like much and which is one of the best Indian restaurants on the island. The whole, with a welcoming and particularly nice service and an excellent quality-price ratio. On the menu, you will find the classics of Indian cuisine: tandooris (not very spicy), masalas, kormas (milder, a mixture of curry and coconut milk), traditional curries, more or less spicy dishes, for vegetarians or not.

This is the restaurant of the parador, from which you will be able to appreciate the beautiful views of the tropical garden through the large windows. The local cuisine will of course be in the spotlight, with toast ofalmogrote (goat cheese and chili paste), kid meat or palm syrup(guarapo) to accompany some dishes. Occasionally, you can also opt for black cherne, a species of fish with delicate flesh, particularly appreciated by Canarians, accompanied by its papas and mojos.

We appreciate its magnificent sunny terrace which dominates the bay of Puerto del Carmen and allows to see until the island of Fuerteventura, by being careful to choose its place. It is a good address to soak up the local atmosphere. It offers mainly fish (grouper, sea bass) and seafood (grouper, sea bass, scampi...) all very good and copious but you can also try the mixed paella. We also appreciate the gesture of the small digestive offered at the end of the meal. Very pleasant setting, professional and friendly service.

This restaurant owes its name to the work of gofio, a grain flour inherited from the guanches. Opened in March 2019, it welcomes its customers in a large room with bright walls and often fills up because word of mouth has worked well. This is justified because the portions are quite copious and the prices quite mini. The menu changes regularly, but you can be tempted by the soup of the day, with mushrooms and spinach, by the gambas al ajillo or the goat cheese, served with palm honey. Reservation recommended.

Operating since 1986, this Chalana (small boat) is the ideal place to take a break when exploring the surroundings of Playa de Santiago. You will find everything you can appreciate in a beach restaurant: hearty mixed salads, croquettes and ultra-fresh fish. All served very copiously. The menu is simple but the prices are correct. Whether you are seated, if possible on the terrace by reserving in advance, or enjoying a drink on a barrel, you will appreciate the view on the beach.

Since its opening in 1973, this restaurant has given pride of place to local products, especially from the sea. As a result, it is now one of the most famous places on the island for fish, whether for its freshness or its preparation. Their mythical dish is the limpet soup, a must-try, but you can also taste their tuna and their prawns with various mojos. The gourmets will also appreciate their chocolate mousse or their gofio mousse. The space is small, so reservations are highly recommended.

Open since November 2016, this small tapas bar offers a few tables on the terrace facing the paseo maritimo, with all the necessary protection from the sun and wind. As well as a small interior space. As it is masterfully managed by the very energetic and welcoming Joly, it has become a regular clientele who appreciate the tapa of the day to complement the caña or the drink. We recommend his goat meat tapa, particularly tasty and copious. A place to rally from breakfast, very copious.

Overlooking the Charco de San Ginés, but opposite to most restaurants, it offers a nice interior room as well as a small terrace, often in the shade, but protected from the wind. This family restaurant offers traditional Canarian cuisine, with a touch of innovation and a menu that changes with the season. One can appreciate a chicken with goat cheese and vegetables, noodles with seafood before finishing with a chocolate cake... as well as local wines. Attentive and judicious reception.

First and foremost, this tasca has a large interior space and a lovely terrace where you can sit facing the charco de San Ginés, in a white house with blue shutters. Here you can enjoy tuna a la plancha, choco dumplings, cannelloni stuffed with duck, small fried dishes, mussels and, of course, the timeless ensaladilla rusa with picos. All in all, it's enough for a proper tapeo, with rather generous portions more akin to a "plato". For dessert, try Haria's goat yoghurt mousse.

The La Compostelana group had the excellent idea of taking over the former café on the Plaza del Charco, sheltered under magnificent Canarian palm trees. The result is a kind of Swiss army knife where you can find everything you need, from breakfast to the latest cocktail, not forgetting the tapas area and the restaurants. The decor is a little Sissi in the tropics, but it's not without its charm, and the quality and freshness of the dishes and tapas on offer are top-notch.

We love this restaurant, whether you come alone, with your family, as a lover or with friends. To begin with, we let ourselves be tempted by a hummus, a garlic bread and sweet and sour peppers. Special mention for their sangria, to be consumed with moderation however. And if you hesitate between the different dishes, why not try the discovery platters with five tapas? There are also vegetarian and gluten-free options. In season, we recommend the eggplant with cheese and honey. And to finish, the sweet palates will be satisfied with a Catalan cream
