This restaurant is in La Paz, directly opposite the Botanical Gardens. It has a huge outside terrace and although there are tables inside, they aren’t set, and nobody appeared to want to sit inside to eat or were even invited inside to eat. When we arrived early evening, including our table, there were eight tables READ MORE

This restaurant is located on the first floor overlooking the Plaza del Charco and it is very popular, although this could be because it has very little competition! The service was very friendly and in typical Chinese fashion, very quick. The portions were large and meant that we ended up taking some home with us.  READ MORE

La Tasquita de Min is a specialist seafood restaurant not far from the Muelle. It’s open until 10:30pm. We arrived around 9pm so it was getting quiet. We didn’t have to wait long for a menu but then the waiter hovered over us until we’d ordered making us feel very rushed. I wasn’t too hungry READ MORE

This place, especially at weekend lunch times is usually heaving, with people queuing for a table but as we choose to eat an evening meal at a typically British time of 19.30, we walked straight in to find two or three empty tables inside. It’s located out of town in an area called Las Arenas, READ MORE

This restaurant is located near to the hotel once known at The Turquesa but recently renamed Alua Tenerife, the only restaurant along the little strip there nestled between a supermarket and an excursion shop.  Perhaps not the best setting but don’t let that put you off. We arrived without a reservation and had to wait READ MORE
