Family-run Canarian restaurant
4.9 (5)La Orotava10-20 €
Bar Los Castillos is a small family-run restaurant in La Orotava for home-style Canarian food rather than a polished dining room. Reviews describe a father-and-son welcome, personal service and food that feels closer to a family table than a formal restaurant.
The dishes to look for are grilled cheese with mojo, rabbit with potatoes, ham, chicken and local wine. It works best for a simple Canarian lunch or low-key local meal. The old website link is not reliable, so use phone or maps rather than planning through the site.

A small family run restaurant that does home-cooked canarian food with very authentic dishes. The father and son who run the front are charming and look after you with personal care. The food tastes like it’s been cooked with love as with a family meal.

A wonderful family atmosphere, delicious grilled cheeses and the best roast rabbit with potatoes I’ve ever had. I highly recommend this place 🙂

A must visit for amazing comfort food, great service and exquisite wine. We went as a group of 4 for lunch and shared the grilled mojo cheese, the ham and the chicken and it was a good portion each.

Excellent food and wine, local and family owned- cannot recommend enough. This was our favorite meal in the whole of Tenerife after a week's time!
