What are best Tenerife restaurants for any budget and events?
Exploring Tenerife restaurants is a holiday adventure. Some Tenerife restaurants were discovered by myself while on the road doing market research for a Santa Cruz company called Cabinde. I couldn't resist testing others, after they had been recommended by friends. Tenerife Island is a subtropical oasis of scenic beauty for eating out. Cooking recipes which are used are amazing. They often show influence by cooks from all over the world. The only objection, I sometimes have is: Tenerife prepared fish is generally very fresh but may look a bit black on the outside. Who eats fish skin anyhow?
It is easy to select what you feel like to eat. Inns, bodegas, bistros and any other eating places in tourist resorts give you international menu cards. Such cards have been seen in Tenerife with Russian or Scandinavian menu additions. Guachinche inns are for Tinerfeños or all, who understand some Spanish.
Going out and Tenerife smoking:What is unusual with Tenerife restaurants is that customers may not smoke inside in large eating rooms. Restaurant La Casona is such an example. However, there is still its smoke free veranda. Smoking is allowed in smaller eating places like in the Ikea Cantina Restaurant, provided a section is especially marked out for it. Owners or waiters are not permitted to smoke in front of customers, as I was told in Restaurant Palmeras Arte. Stylish restaurants on Tenerife:Eat anything in Tenerife Restaurants... You will seldom be disappointed. Find super modern places for meals to sample. Discover many others with captivating colonial style, as shown on one of my special Spain photos, here. Find them mainly in the north... Such eating houses are seldom high class but, have this typical Tenerife charm like at Restaurant El Farol Puerto Cruz, Calle San Juan. Or sit on restaurant verandas to enjoy sun sets, you cannot always see while dining in a hotel. Otherwise, grab a carefree bite at a not expensive bistro restaurant by the seashore, where nobody cares about your sandy feet... Find a Bistro Restaurant called Hamburgueseria Cafeteria MARILU... where I like the fresh fish. Taoro Restaurant or Restaurante Taoro with its good meals and exceptional park surroundings belongs to the lower and medium price class category but, is my favorite garden restaurant in North Tenerife.

El Duende Restaurant in La Vera Puerto de la Cruz fell back onto its feet and serves its renown good quality dishes again.

Beforehand, I drove there with them to show, how to find it.

Restaurant El Duende is not cheap at all but far more affordable than the high class restaurant at Hotel Abama Golf Resort in Guia de Isora, Tenerife South, with French food by the *** chef Martin Berasategui. When I asked, if dinner at this ***Abama Golf restaurant was good, the answer was, I may bet that the meals were superb with a bill of €300 for 2 without the wine. A relative of my neighbor was eating there. So much to real top Tenerife restaurant prices... All 10 Abama Golf resort restaurants have good reputation, by the way.
Best Plaza del Charco Restaurant Puerto Cruz:
The photo on the right shows one of most beautiful Tenerife Restaurants called Restaurante La Casona. You see part of its big interior yard called patio in Spanish. It is a mixture of modern and old unlike that of Hotel El Marquesa where everything is antique. Here too, plants break up the space. However, they are mainly ferns. At La Casona pastel colors contrast with the dark brown timber of balconies, window and door frames. Sit next to a marble fountain while enjoying La Casona cuisine on a hot day. There, admire one of most beautiful Christmas trees, which I have seen inside a Tenerife building during the winter season.Discover more about the central Restaurant La Casona Puerto de la Cruz with 2010 Tenerife carnival decoration and with more surprises... A lovely alternative for La Casona Restaurant is Restaurant La Papaya in street Calle el Lomo about 3 - 5 mintutes away.

The picture shows myself with its chef, which was taken a few years ago.San Pedro Meson Monasterio restaurant has an upstairs and downstairs part. Its wine bodega, part of which seen from some tables upstairs, is used for festivals. Much at Restaurant Hacienda San Pedro dates back centuries. A remarkable mural is one piece of art, it shows off. The exceptional set up of La Hacienda Restaurant at Monasterio and its excellent food make it Tenerife eating out to remember. A south African hotel owner, I took there refused to have dinner anywhere else, last not least. Try its beef fillet prepared the Japanese way on a hot stone by your table. Eat any of its tapas and savor best wines... Meson El Monasterio Restaurante la Hacienda San Pedro
Restaurante Calabacín for Gourmets and/or Vegetarians:
Also, try their desserts like a light vegetarian flan made without eggs or a strawberry melon sorbet for about € 5,50... Restaurant Palmeras Arte San Juan de la Rambla
One of Tenerife Restaurants for art such as Jazz, literature readings, painting and sculpture exhibitions is Restaurante Las Palmeras Arte. It is exceptional in its small town with a vibrant art community as well as in Tenerife and on Canary Islands.Note, Restaurant Las Palmeras Arte is not one of most expensive restaurants but merits a ***, anyway. I adore its salads like egg fruit also called aubergine salad. My friend the painter Anand Rubai, who is no beef eater, likes chicken dishes there, always. Try the black rice with squids called Chipirones, Bacalao rice, or the fish salad with raw Bacalao and taste the superb wines, this restaurant has to offer. I have eaten 4 times at this place and was very happy. However, don't order black Catalan mushrooms which are sedas Catalanes negras. For very acquired taste, only... Its decor and cozy interior on 2 floors has a definite artistic touch.Smoke in an enchanting small garden setting on its first floor. When you have a holiday home in Tenerife going out to eat is a must. Why? To enjoy for ever different food in pleasant climate. Many of its restaurants give you scenes to remember forever as a priceless bonus. To make a point to what said just now in favor of restaurants in Tenerife is the following: I must mention a tiny bodega in this context, which I discovered in the Alfama in Lisbon. I went there almost 30 years ago. The food was good but, I don't recollect what I ate. What comes back in my mind, was its setting and its welcoming service which made me so happy. Restaurants on the biggest of all Canary Islands often leave similar memories.
