Guachinche Los Gómez

Nice and simple set up. It was late afternoon and there was not many dinners, just a group of girls, celebrating an occasion. The food was nice in general,but my husband found a dead fly in his chickpea dish and the bread rolls were too dry and old. It looks like nothing gets waisted in this place. Apart from that,it was good experience over all.

I met this place through the Viaje Markastle channel and especially through Pepe who lets you know that this is the best or one of the best guachinches in Tenerife. The truth is, the red wine was great, the sirloin was to lick your fingers, the old clothes spectacular, the step first time I try it, I will check it when I visit some other place because they say they do it better in other places. The atmosphere was great, a totally country site, with impressive views, you can see its crops, it was Thursday and yet it was quite full. The price is very good and very well served. Anyway, it was very good. I understand that it is full and it is very difficult to park and you also have to wait a long time to enter, however, we arrived straight to eat because they had empty tables and then when we left it was full. Highlight that there was no chop.

The food was by far the best we had in tenerife. It still surprises me on how some people base their review. It is a rustic little restaurant in the side of the mountain so expect that it’s not a michelin side setup, and it shouldn’t be. They only have a few servers and by the time we were there we had to queue for 30mins so the place was packed, yet the service was sufficent enough but of course we had to wait a little bit, but come on, it was well worth it! You go into a restaurant because you want to eat something nice, not because everything else is perfect… based in that los gomez is absolutely worth it! The chips with the fried egg is sublime, but the grilled cheese with the salsa verde was also a hit. We also had the grilled chuleta (pork chop) which was grilled into perfection and the croquetas were also a must try. All in all, expect that it’s very very rustic place, but if you’re into some very decent classic canarian cooking with a glass of red this is your place!

Excellent local Guachinche - go for the local hospitality - you will not be disappointed. We were 4 adults and 3 kids and everyone enjoyed the plentiful food, drink and atmosphere - we shared everything family style. We ate the Bistec (beet steak, tenderized and grilled) and the Solomillo (pork loin seasoned well, marinated and grilled over the charcoal) along with the grilled local cheese and some fries. We drank 1L of the local vino tinto (€7) and some beer. We took home plenty of leftovers and left feeling very full. Would definitely visit again. Note that they do not accept cards so best to bring cash. There is no wifi.

If you are here in Tenerife you shouldn’t skip this place. It’s totally worth it. Don’t get discouraged by looks. It has great atmosphere, food is even more delicious. Solomillo was the BEST meat I have ever eaten. Perfectly grilled and seasoned. You will feel like it’s at someone’s garden. Hopefully I will come back.
