About

El Gomero is a traditional, old-fashioned restaurant set back from the Costa Adeje beachfront and hotel strip, which several visitors say makes it worth the short detour. The room has an authentic, welcoming feel, and the menu covers everything from steak and pasta to paella and the fish of the day, drawing a genuinely local crowd alongside visitors.

Portions are consistently described as generous, with a meat platter for two often reported as enough for four, and the paella regularly praised as some of the most authentic on the island. Quesillo, a homemade Canarian pudding, is the dessert reviewers recommend most, and public parking nearby makes it an easy stop even without a hotel-adjacent location.

Guest review summary

Commonly mentioned by visitors.

Paella, steaks and fish specials are praised as generous, authentic and worth the detour from the beachfront.

Portions can be huge; one meat platter for two sounds closer to a table-sharing order.

Quesillo and local-room service make it feel more Canarian than the resort strip.

It is away from the beach and closes Saturday-Sunday, so plan it deliberately.

We had a fantastic experience at this lovely old-fashioned, traditional restaurant. The atmosphere feels authentic and welcoming, which immediately sets the tone for a great meal. We visited as a group and tried a variety of dishes, including the steak with onions and mushrooms, El Gomero steak, pasta Bolognese, fish of the day, and a meat platter for two. The steaks were absolutely fantastic🥰perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and very satisfying. The pasta and fish were equally amazing, clearly prepared with care and high-quality ingredients. The portions are very generous. In fact, the meat platter advertised for two people could easily feed four! Every dish we ordered was large and filling, which made the experience even better value for money. Customer service was excellent 🥰 friendly, attentive, and very helpful throughout our visit. It really added to the overall positive experience. Prices are reasonable considering the quality and portion sizes. There is also public parking available around the restaurant, and we had no trouble finding spaces for two cars right next door. This place definitely deserves 5 stars. We will absolutely be coming back!

If you're looking for truly authentic paella, you've come to exactly the right place! The locals around us were clearly enjoying their paella just as much as we were. The portion was very generous, easily satisfying two people (and probably more). The dessert recommendation from our wonderfully attentive waiter — homemade pudding (quesillo) — was simply fantastic. This is a place worth coming back to again and again!

Paella (mixed) for two is huge and delicious! The goat cheese is also amazing. We came back after 4 years, is a mandatory restaurant for us now. Totally recommended

We’ve been here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and every time, everything was just superb. If you’re hungry or simply want to enjoy a truly delicious meal, this is the place to go. Highly recommended!🤩🤩😁

After a week of meh to mediocre food this is by far the best restaurant I ate at. Not close to the beach or hotels so has to work a bit harder.

Very much locals restaurant / bar service.

Well worth a detour.

The fish special house dish was great.
