€€Modern Cuisine
This restaurant's unique location may come as a surprise; and no wonder, it is located in a quiet residential area, within the Tafira Tennis Club. The name, a nod to the sport of tennis but also a statement of intent, underscores the team's philosophy and its overwhelming enthusiasm for serving up informal haute cuisine. Here, what is made abundantly clear is the desire to do things the right way, both in the kitchen (Paco Budia) and in the dining room (Héctor Suárez and Sem Suárez), in a relaxed atmosphere... although with incredibly high self-imposed standards! The menu, supported by a tasti
€€Mediterranean Cuisine, International
Located just a few steps from the Casa de Colón in the heart of the historic Vegueta district, where the city was first established, this restaurant boasts a pleasantly rustic-contemporary decor of sturdy natural stone walls and numerous decorative wood features. The cuisine embraces an array of delicious and copious dishes that are based around classic international fare enhanced by influences from countries such as Spain, France, Italy and the UK. The tartare of tuna belly with Asian flavours and wasabi and avocado sorbet came as a particularly pleasant surprise.

Located in Guanarteme, Rêver offers Mediterranean and international cuisine. Based on 80 reviews (avg 4.7/5), guests frequently praise the elaborate and flavorful food, describing it as a 'tribute to the palate.' Service and atmosphere generally receive positive marks, though some note a lack of staff engagement, excessive quietness, or pacing issues. Value perceptions vary: while many find the portions and wine recommendations justify the cost, others criticize overly salty dishes, large portions lacking delicacy, and service that failed to meet Michelin Guide expectations.
Suitable for diners seeking refined Mediterranean flavors who tolerate a quiet atmosphere.
€€Traditional Cuisine, Creative
A restaurant that has burst onto the island’s culinary scene and which takes its name from one of the island’s most typical folklore dances. The young chef at the helm has added a contemporary touch to traditional Canary Island recipes, in so doing incorporating some interesting personal touches and creativity. The cooking here is centred on two tasting menus (Santa Ana and Vegueta), although an à la carte and “media ración” options are also available.

If, as well as enjoying a meal, you are keen to be part of a gastronomic experience, this restaurant is well worth a visit! Although not overly spacious, this pleasant and informal restaurant is enthusiastically run by Jennise Ferrari, a Venezuelan chef who settled in Las Palmas in 2013. Here, she showcases fusion cuisine that is based around local ingredients, with the added aim of creating attractive dishes inspired by places a little further afield (Mexico, Asia, Japan etc). Many of the speciality dishes are perfect for sharing: we can highly recommend the duck magret, Cuban-style rice nigi

Located in Guanarteme, Qué Leche offers modern fusion cuisine blending South American, Japanese, and Canarian influences. Reviews highlight high food quality, intricate presentation, and flavorful dishes ideal for sharing. The atmosphere is cozy and pleasant in this small venue.

While most praise the culinary creativity, opinions on value vary, with some finding the pricing unjustified relative to portions.
Suitable for diners seeking creative fusion cuisine and comfortable with non-traditional service flows.

€€Italian, Fusion
Located near the Gabinete Literario building and the Casa-Museo Pérez Galdós, this establishment captures the essence of a traditional Italian trattoria, seeking to recreate the cuisine of the iconic nonnas, with plenty of character, but not without modern and regional touches. Experienced chef Matteo Pierazzoli, who worked for several years as head chef for Nacho Manzano at the now three-Michelin-starred Casa Marcial (Arriondas, Asturias), strives for authenticity by importing different ingredients from small transalpine producers, especially cheeses and charcuterie. On the menu, which is not

A restaurant with plenty of personality and an appealing decor along an attractive pedestrian street in the city’s Triana district. Its cuisine is equally impressive, featuring market-inspired cooking with a modern touch and influences from the Canary Islands that is only available à la carte. We recommend booking ahead.
€€Modern Cuisine, Traditional Cuisine
El Santo boasts an excellent location in the Triana district, a part of the old town with a special beauty and character that result from its original occupation by residents who settled here mainly from Andalucía. The restaurant features a pleasantly surprising decor that combines the stone walls of this restored property with attractive tropical details. To this backdrop, guests can savour bold cuisine that showcases typical Canary island recipes, with a fusion of Mexican cooking visible in some dishes. Don’t miss the black “papa arrugada” potatoes with mojo “snow” and mole mojo!
