Spain - Food & Drink

Restaurant located on the ground floor of a typical Sevillian house in the middle of the old town. A... fountain bubbles in the middle of one dining room, and bullfighting fans meet in the other for loud discussions and to enjoy traditional Andalusian cuisine. more

Modern Spanish fish dishes, beautiful terrace. Situated in the food alley in Santa Eulària Des Riu.

Small, cosy bar and restaurant, original cuisine with an oriental touch. Excellent couscous with saffron,... lots of fresh vegetables. Tip: Sunday brunch. more

Super fine restaurant with a cozy Andalusian patio below the Jardín Tropical Hotel, which appears quite... Moorish. The seasonal menu offers diverse culinary pleasures; you order à la carte, the cuisine is international, made with best local produce and a couple of exotic extras, such as truffled liver paste or caviar. Excellent service. The gourmet restaurant has been awarded the title "Best Restaurant of Tenerife" many times. 100 fine wines are stored in the basement. more

This is not an oriental restaurant, as you might think from the name. The name is derived from "aceite"... (oil). Creative "new Spanish" cuisine is prepared in the small restaurant. In other words, the menu is something for curious gourmets. more

A young German couple "changed the train" and did not get off of it, as they like to put it. In one of... the most beautiful places of the island, they run an enchanting, small restaurant, inside an old village house, with tables on the pretty plaza next to the village church. The menu is small and manageable, offers Spanish-Canarian food, sometimes also Italian and German, which is also liked by the locals, for a change. Sort of a cafe-bistro during the day (great local wine!). more

Small family restaurant which has been in existence since 1870. Two rooms, eight tables - serving hearty... Spanish food at low prices. Very cosy. more

This restaurant is located in an old Canary Island manor house with a beautiful courtyard. Specialities... of Canary Island cuisine are served, such as "potaje canario" (stew) or "papas arrugadas" (potatoes with salt crust). A much recommended classic, which still retains its quality. more

Light floods through the huge glass façade into the self-appointed “lifestyle restaurant”. How nice... that the good degustation menu is not overpriced. In summer, the terrace comes to life. more
