About

Nicomedes Pescaderia Marisqueria is a market-hall seafood stop where choosing from the fish counter is part of the meal. Prawns, scallops and fresh cooked-to-order seafood are the clearest reasons to sit down, and the lively no-frills setting feels local in the right way.

It gets very busy at lunch, so take a free seat quickly and expect a practical rather than polished rhythm. Some shellfish portions, such as clams, can be expensive, so ask before ordering by weight or portion.

It's worth traveling to Tenerife for this place. Fish counter in the bustling market (which is also great) around lunchtime it is very busy so if you see a free seat, jump on it. You can order from the display rather than a menu, it's all priced by raw weight and then cooked. Everything we had was superb. Super fresh and perfectly cooked. A very nice dry wine. Service is no nonsense. If you are a fan of seafood, this is a must.

Freshest seafood lunch option in town, if not on the island. Choose what you want to eat from "catch-of-the day" market display and in a few minutes it will be on your plate.Amazingly tasty! Atmosphere: Expect nothing fancy,but it is an authentic, traditional market hall. Super friendly service.

Amazing place. You need to go. We were there for lunch. Very good seafood and warm and kind people. Busy and Lively, but you feel close to the local way of life.

My wife felt unwell and they really cared. Great people. We will be back.

The restaurant is located inside a marketplace, which gives it a lively atmosphere. The prawns and scallops were nicely grilled and reasonably priced. The clams were a bit expensive at 24 euros per portion, but the flavor was really good. The pulpo was very soft, which wasn’t my personal preference. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience with efficient and attentive staff.
