Tenerife: Restaurants in the south

In this article i will give recomendations and advises for holidaymakers on Tenerife south for the frecuently asked question  “Which Restaurants do you recomend in south Tenerife?“.

This recomendations are based on my personal experience living 13 years in Las Americas.

The restaurants i recomend here, i personaly tried and i frecuently visit them. The Restaurants are located in the area from Los Cristianos to Playa Fañabe.

 

So many Restaurants

In the south you will have no problem to find a Restaurant as there are probably more places to eat arround the corner of your hotel then you can visit in 10 holidays to Tenerife.

 

It’s a difficult decision to choose the right one because on many of them have exactly the same menu:

  • Paella
  • Pizza
  • Pasta
  • Fish
  • Seafood
  • Tapas
  • Chicken
  • Beef
  • Pork
  • All combined with different sauces

I recommend you to avoid most Restaurants which are not specialised in a specific type of food.

Their strategy to get customers

  • offering all kind of food for all tastes
  • trying to get your money
  • having a person standing outside on the street
  • all the time telling you how “Great” their food is.

The point here is that restaurants who offers everything from Italian to Spanish food passing by “Steak House” and offering in the morning “English Breakfast”,  have mostly average to poor quality food for expensive prices, at least here on Tenerife.

Obviously this restaurants are not trying to make returning customers with good food thinking in large term benefits. The thing is that if you didnt liked  the food, most of them dont care because “tomorrow” their will be another “lost” turist arriving to the island and you will be going back home. In fact they dont realise that many people come to visit Tenerife not just once in life. Many people come several times a year.

 

So now you will be probably saying, “All that is very good to know, but which restaurants do you recommend then?
