Prices, opening times and local insider tips
At lunchtime, everything revolves around the ‚menú del día‘. A three-course meal including a drink costs between 10 and 14 euros – a price that hardly any other part of the island can beat. In the evening, the bills go up, and the finer restaurants don’t open until around 9 pm, in keeping with Spanish customs. Card payments are accepted almost everywhere. Latin American barbecue culture features heavily on many menus, alongside ‚Bienmesabe‘, the island’s almond cream dessert. Around Christmas and Easter, restaurants such as Samsara – with its 1,269 reviews – fill up quickly, so it’s best to book in advance.
Tips for your visit
The 43 restaurants are spread across the entire municipality, from the coastal areas around Maspalomas right up to the higher-altitude mountain villages. The eateries are clustered near the dunes; the Motivos in San Fernando has racked up 739 reviews there. In the mountainous regions, the cuisine remains more regional. Four steakhouses specialise in grilled meat.
Two tapas bars serve small plates with a flavour from the Canary Islands, often featuring almonds from the mountainous regions. On the outskirts of the town centres, four bars remain open, including the Bar-Restaurante Ayacata, which has over 1,000 reviews. The higher up the eponymous village is situated, the more down-to-earth the fare becomes.
