The restaurant offers a pleasingly wide range of gluten-free options, which, according to the staff, are also suitable for people with celiac disease – a clear plus for those affected and one of the few positive experiences of the evening.
Apart from that, the visit was unfortunately disappointing. The premium entrecôte we ordered was of inferior quality: served already in strips, the meat consisted mostly of cartilage and tendons. The desired degree of doneness was clearly missed on the first attempt, and even after re-cooking, the meat was completely cooked and dry. Although our complaint was acknowledged by the staff, we were more or less ignored thereafter – no apology, no follow-up questions, no concessions whatsoever. Overall, the staff seemed very stressed and overwhelmed during the summer season anyway.
The fish dish was no real compensation either – although it was properly cooked, it was completely tasteless. The vegetables served with both main courses were cold and seemed unpleasantly placed on the plate.
The sangria bianco turned out to be a weak mix, reminiscent of dry rosé wine with mineral water – at an inflated price.
Overall, a disappointing experience: The price paid was not met with any quality or service. Only the gluten-free options stood out positively – the rest, unfortunately, left much to be desired.
A very charming restaurant in the center of La Laguna, with excellent service and a varied menu, almost all gluten-free and suitable for celiacs, with no cross-contamination.
They have gluten-free bread and beer, and a dessert menu that's breathtaking.
The croquettes were delicious, with original fillings, and super creamy and crunchy.
All the dishes were spectacular, but that Nutella brownie with coconut ice cream... mmmm!!!!
We ordered:
Crispy chicken salad (almond-breaded chicken, apple, walnuts, and yogurt sauce)
Wild shrimp salad (avocado, toasted seeds, and a hazelnut and bacon dressing)
Chicken, cod, and spinach croquettes with pumpkin, raisins, and pine nuts
Slow-cooked octopus with lentil vinaigrette, sweet potato puree, and passion fruit sauce
Angus beef sirloin steak
Iberian secret with French fries, Padrón peppers, and palm honey
Everything was delicious. I hope we have the chance to come back.
Delicious gluten free quiches, cakes and lunch options. Great value for money too. Loved it so much I brought all my friends there the day after I found it on a walk!
My wife and I prefer to eat gluten-free and vegetarian/vegan food and we travel internationally frequently. It is very difficult to find restaurants that meet both criteria while delivering creative and delicious food. Inner You cafe was exceptional. We had the beet root falafel wrap and pesto quinoa bowl with homemade cashew mozzarella cheese--both were great! We enjoyed our meal so much that we had dessert--raw lemon cheesecake and the chocolate tart--wow! It is obvious that the chef creates these foods with care--being mindful of presenting nutritional food that also looks beautiful.
The owners were super friendly and attentive, they treated us wonderfully, we tried 6 dishes of the food and they were all delicious, the desserts were equally delicious.
For celiac people they have it completely under control, I totally recommend it.
Gluten free!!!!!

Almost €4 for a gluten-free sandwich that I just ordered to take away. A leaf of lettuce, a slice and a half of tomato, mayonnaise, half a slice of cheese and that pittance of gluten...I certainly don't plan to go again. Of course, the service was very good and those who assisted me were very friendly, but if you are going to charge me almost €4, don't put me through that misery...
A shame because I liked the place, but come on, to get that, I'd rather go somewhere else.
Really nice wee cafe that does your usual brits abroad fare from full English to Sunday roasts. Particularly nice that they did gluten free options for the breads which meant we went back a few times. Really nice food with some good service.
This restaurant is a revelation! Everything was perfect, the food, the ambience and the service. I was a bit skeptical, I'm not that familiar with vegan. But what the boys conjure up from the small kitchen is incredible. My wife can't eat gluten because of celiac disease, so the choice is usually very limited. Everything in this restaurant was gluten-free except for the tiramisu. I can fully recommend this restaurant, whether for vegans or just because.
Stumbled across this cafe this morning and had the most delicious vegetarian breakfast. The cafe has great views in a terrace overlooking the sea. Staff were friendly, and the food was exactly what I had been looking for. Great choice of healthy juices and smoothies, and appreciated that most dishes could also be made gluten free. Would highly recommend.
This is our second time here, and once again, we had a very good experience. We came mainly for the gluten-free options. We tried the tongs and the pizzas, both very good and with a texture that makes it hard to tell they're gluten-free. A 10. It's a great option for celiacs in southern Tenerife.
For pizza, I recommend the guanciale special. I can't explain how delicious it is, and the combination with the stacchino cheese! Wow, incredible.
Very tourist restaurant, good food and fast service. They have gluten-free options and a varied menu. The animation is lively. We had an espresso and it surprised us, the best one we've had here in Tenerife. For the rest, if you are in the area and want to eat quickly, it's more than fine
Very tasty pizzas and very friendly service.
The only negative was that they charged us extra (without our knowledge) for a gluten-free pizza, and it was smaller than the gluten-free ones... They do that size thing in a lot of places, and I don't understand the reason.
But overall, we're happy with the place. Thank you.
Delighted with this place, the beautiful place, the phenomenal treatment and the food even better. They also have several dishes suitable for celiacs, so my partner has been able to eat everything he wanted. Highly recommended. When I return to Tenerife I will repeat.
I ordered a bean burger with a gluten free bun - it came with fries and onion rings. All of it tasted amazing. The chef was very cautious with making me the bean pattie for the burger cause I ordered the gluten-free bun as some ingredients in the pattie contained gluten. I really appreciate the caution - till I clarified it was more a preference than an allergy and then I was served :).
There was a live band playing 70s-80s music that made it's the perfect place to have lunch after a long bus ride.
Would recommend the hotel for everything - food, service, atmosphere
Impeccable service!!
A day like last night, where customers, in addition to coming to watch football, were looking for a place where they treat you well, give you good service and good food.
The place was very successful!!!
Congratulate the staff!!
For their patience with so many clients, offering their professionalism, having the different rooms complete, families, friends, couples, etc...
They treated us very well, offering their best smile until late into the night.
Extensive menu with a wide variety of products, also GLUTEN FREE.
We arrived early, in time to have a snack "we tasted their pastries and chocolate" it was delicious.
During the game we had soft drinks and beers, when the game ended we decided to have dinner and try their delicious typical dishes Papas locas, special dishes and crepes.
To finish we had a few drinks.
The food was very good, we asked for some changes for the filling of the crepes and we had no problems, the main thing for them was to serve us and ensure that we enjoyed dinner.
Very affordable prices.
Access for people with reduced mobility.
Free parking spaces for cars and motorcycles, also parking spaces for special vehicles.
Very clean place
The quality of the food is very good. Although at 10 euros for a tomato, you'd expect a little more cheese than just 20 grams. Overall, the portions are small, although considering the prices, they look like main courses. But I'm more about quality than quantity.
In the photos, you can see a main course of cod with onions and a sweet potato, another main course of octopus with a sweet potato, a salad (not a starter), and a tomato with fresh cheese (which is actually just 20 grams of cheese, no more). But, as I said, I'm more about quality than quantity, so it's fine.
Still, with all this plus dessert for two, I left a little hungry (and I don't eat much, believe me!).
The apple dessert was spectacular. There's no photo because it disappeared before I could take it! Hahaha.
The waitress went a bit overboard. They're constantly talking about their leukemia and judging you if you try to order a gluten-free dessert (without knowing why you're doing it). It's a bit lacking in professionalism for such a posh place.
Apparently the founder is not even in the kitchen anymore, it is fast food level at a gas station where buses stop, little elaboration of the dishes, omelette with eggs and things like that. Of course, very good care for celiacs and control of allergens such as gluten and lactose (if your palate is not very demanding). Fast and cheap service, but nothing remains of the "family restaurant" that it once apparently was. They told us and we didn't pay attention, don't let the same thing happen to you!
I'm going to miss coming here now that I'm moving : whenever I want to have a quiet dinner I know I can count on this place. I love the rice noodles and the attention that the staff has always had for me. Especially today, when they have been great to me with the gluten-free options they have (it is not recommended for celiacs because there is cross contamination, but if you can't eat gluten because of others or because you don't want to, there are millions of options).
Thank you!
I love this teahouse, the staff were really great, lots of selection and even gluten free options. We were visiting from La Palma and will definitely be back.... The chocolate orange cake is calling me!
Simply exquisite food. We loved it so much that on our last day in La Palma, we changed our route so we could go back. The staff was delightful. Both the grilled meat and the goat stew were spectacular... and what can we say about the gofio... delicious!
If you let them know a day in advance, they'll prepare the gofio for you if you have gluten! 😌
The best restaurant on the island
Highly recommended! Delicious food! And the location is stunning with luxurious views, but without a doubt the highlight is the blonde waitress (I forget her name) who is very, very friendly! She explained everything in detail and always had a smile! We went with a girl who is celiac, and the waitress constantly explained everything that each dish included and made sure it was gluten-free! The price is a bit pricey, though. I think they could lower the prices on some things a bit... totally recommended.
Very good food, highly recommended! We ate goat made in local way, the small potatoes and desserts.
They have knowledge about allergens, you can eat something without gluten, dairy and so on
Excellent, incredible, highly recommended. Food with an exquisite flavor, friendly and unbeatable treatment. If you visit La Palma, don't hesitate, come to Los Cancajos, where the Hotel Las Olas is located, and look for this tavern on the ground floor because you will eat very well at a really low price. And something very important that few places take into account, people who cannot eat gluten here worry about it and that is very appreciated because it rarely happens.
Usually a bit crowded but it's worth it.
Inexpensive local restaurant with really friendly staff and always fresh and expertly cooked food.
The only 'cons' I'd mention is that they don't use to have gluten-free bread. I have their wonderful potato omelette instead.
Btw, if they have paella when you go don't miss it! It's amazing.
They were very careful with the products they offered us, since there were two celiacs at the table. We ate with complete peace of mind and confidence. THANK YOU.
Very good and highly recommended. Quiet and beautiful place. Attention of ten. They adapt to any option. Vegan section with homemade cashew cheeses. Highly recommended. Options for celiacs.
