Discover the unique atmosphere of El Calderito de la Abuela

El Calderito de la Abuela is located in the north of Tenerife, on the main floor of the family building where the well-known restaurant Los Corales, by Mario Torres, used to be located. In the same building we also find the ground floor that is occupied by the office and a kitchen where research is done and also created. Also on the mezzanine floor is the recent workshop where Mario Bakes’ breads are made.

Our main dining room is a large glazed area, recently renovated, with unique views of the Orotava Valley and the sea. Both here and in the room attached to the bar, with magnificent views of Mount Teide, we have done everything possible to make you feel at home.

You can also enjoy outside on the new terrace surrounded by palm trees, Biergarten style. What comes the cold? Don’t worry: we have the mushroom stoves waiting for you.

Visited after seeing on Masterchef - we drove over an hour to visit. Superb views over the sea down the hillside and really delicious food. Seemed to be a market garden on the side of the restaurant as well with vegetable and herbs grown so one was greeted by a nice smell even just getting out of the car. Nice feel the the place and fine for us to bring our baby daughter - had a high chair. Really enjoyed the food. We’re not fish eaters but the steak was lovely and also the grilled cheese and mojo sauces. Actually the salad was one of the best we’d had as well

All the dishes we had were amazing, especially the gofio and the rabbit. I would have given a 5+, if the service would have been on par with the food. Unfortunately there are many issues in this area. We waited more than 15 min until someone served us. Some dishes from the menu were longer available at the start of the evening which is not the end of the world. Then we ordered gluten-free bread but after asking 4 times over 40 min it was still not coming and some dishes were really asking for bread. After the 5th ask, they told us they don’t actually have it… The waiters seem overall nice but probably not enough, looked stressed and provide suboptimal service… Communication is also in big need of improvement

We found this place very randomly, looking for something else in the area. It was a great surprise, the food was delicious and varied, the staff very friendly. I recommend having a multiple course meal with starter, main course and desert to get the full experience, they do have great options for all courses.

We drove one hour to reach this beautiful, cozy restaurant with a magnificent view and delicious food. The waiter made us feel at home and made really nice suggestions. My friends and I stayed there for about four hours and they never rushed us. The food was amazing! You’ve got to try the rabbit and the local started (yellow dish that I forgot the name from) A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! You would not regret it!

Views 10/10 Food 8/10 Service 9/10 Ordered the sprouts salad which was absolutely delicious and onion rings again amazing. Main course of the pig cheeks and goat casserole were average. The stunning views and the fresh garden salad made it worth the drive. Highly recommend everyone try their onion rings...you won't be disappointed. Their house wine was great. 👍
