The Cottage

Reviewed By 256graemeb

Despite being an 'Old Favourite', we hadn't eaten here for some timeTheir service is always top notch. Their 3 course menu very good value for money. Mrs B started with Deep Fried Camembert, followed by half a Chicken with Mushroom sauce & finished with Ice Cream.I started with Onion Soup, plus extra Garlic Bread with Cheese, followed by Mixed Meat Kebab with a BBQ sauce , finished with Chocolate Cake. Including 2 large beers & a water €27.53.Although Mrs. B's Chicken was a bit dry we did enjoy our meal.

This restaurant menu caught my eye whilst walking down the beach front as they offer a range of gluten free meals. The view was lovely, we had paella and wine which was delicious. The waitress particularly made our meal enjoyable as she was friendly and knowledgable about the menu. We would recommend this restaurant for a nice evening meal in lovely surroundings.

El Rincon De Pancho

Reviewed By rogertil

We wanted something a bit different and Spanish and this certainly fitted the bill. Not the usual standard menu. I had the pork special that was lovely and my wife had an excellent salad with canarian potatoes and some proper almogrote on toast was offered while we waited.The restaurant is in a back street and doesn't look all that inviting but the food is good and the service excellent.

Bodega El Parral

Reviewed By ScfamilyAberdeen

We always struggle to find just the right tapas restaurant for us. We prefer our tapas to be small portions so we can have a variety of different tastes but all too often we find restaurants serving dinner sized plates of tapas at dinner sized prices.Bodega El Parral was the perfect place for us.They had a good choice of tapas including tapas sized desserts all for 2.80 euros per portion .We were brought lovely bread with aioli and tomato which is charged for, be aware, but we enjoyed it so were happy to pay for it.We chose four savoury tapas, croquettes, garlic prawns, chorizo and Canarian potatoes and two dessert tapas which were cheesecake and crème brulee.With a lovely chilled wine and a large cold beer our bill came to a very reasonable 25 euros.We were delighted with both our food and the service and would definitely return to this lovely restaurant.

Restaurante La Fortuna

Reviewed By GL3T

I was reluctant to visit here after seeing the pictures posted by other travellers, they don’t do the place justice. However, my partner insisted that it was good and definitely worth a visit. We phoned ahead and pre-booked a table for 9pm. We walked and arrived early but were able to sit down once they’d managed to clean it. The wine menu is more than reasonable. A 1l carafe of house wine €10 with other wines starting from around €12. From reading reviews and the large portions, we chose to go straight for the main. My partner had the half leg of lamb with chips and I had the smaller portion with Canadian potatoes. The food was amazing, the meat was delicious and melted off the bone. We couldn’t even stomach a dessert afterwards as we were so full. When we asked for the bill, we were offered complimentary liquor. We opted for limoncello. We were waiting around 50minutes for our meals to arrive but it was more than worth the wait. As mentioned in the title - laidback vibe.

Pescaito Los Cristianos

Reviewed By DonnaBB75

Tucked away on a corner just back from the sea front, this lovely understated little restaurant is a gem. With an authentic atmosphere good service and homemade dishes. Whilst waiting for our main courses we were brought bread and a selection of mojo sauces which were very tasty. We both ordered fish, sea bass and mackerel one with chips and one with canarian potatoes, with a lovely mixed salad. All the food was superb and the red wine was particularly good. Everything was reasonably priced for an authentic Spanish evening!

Reviewed By Mrsswaggerville

We cannot recommend this gorgeous place enough! I asked for a recommendation from our waiter and he suggested a fish stew special - AMAZING! Hubby had Sea Bass with Canarian potatoes, and the kids ate from the adult menu and had salmon and whitebait. Dessert was also extra special! This was the best meal we have had in all our times on the island and will definitely be back! Thank you! (Too excites to take a photos before we ate - I think the picture says it all though!)

La Casita De Taby

We are an small spanish tapas bar. We made traditional and tipical spanish tapas. Nice music, good wine in a family atmosphere.

Reviewed By mariavinje

In this cute little restaurant you get tasty tapas and great service. The couple running the place are so friendly and nice. The tapas we had was sausage, ham and cheese plate, potatoes with four sauses, tomatoes with goat cheese and pork. It’s enough with 4-6 tapas for two people and the food we had tasted really good. All the dishes was put together nicely and looked delicious. All in all, a great place to visit here in Tenerife
