La Vieja

La Vieja blends the rustic charm of its fishing village surroundings with the sophisticated allure of an upmarket seafood restaurant.

This gastronomic gem offer not just a meal, but a culinary extravaganza, underscored by photogenic views over La Caleta bay, a vista that's worth a thousand views, especially when the sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky with hues of orange and pink.

La Vieja prides itself on a meticulously curated menu, from the rich cherne to the delicate flavours of snapper and alfonsiño, each dish telling a story of tradition, passion, and the unparalleled freshness of locally-sourced ingredients.

The iconic Parrotfish, a specialty of the neighbouring island of Hierro, lends its name to the restaurant and highlights the commitment to Canary Island delicasies.

But La Vieja's offerings transcend the typical—think succulent Santoña anchovies, and a selection of the finest clams, alongside the luxurious carabinero prawns from La Santa (Lanzarote) and the exquisite white prawns from Huelva. The restaurant also offers fresh Cantabrian lobster, sea ox, and crab, while the oyster selection, paired with the eternal companion of champagne, caters to the connoisseurs.

The dining experience at La Vieja is complemented by attentive and professional service. A sommelier is on hand to guide guests through an extensive wine cellar, ensuring the perfect pairing to accentuate the flavours of the sea.

Supporting the island's wine industry, La Vieja offers an extensive selection of Tenerife labels, inviting guests to explore the rich viticultural heritage of the region. This commitment to local producers adds another layer of authenticity to the dining experience, encapsulating the essence of Tenerife in every glass.

The carefully crafted cocktail menu adds another layer of sophistication to the evening, leaving no stone unturned in pursuit of dining perfection.

La Vieja's ambiance is a testament to its attention to detail, with décor that evokes the spirit of the sea and service that mirrors the finesse of silver service dining. The panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and La Gomera island serve as the backdrop to an unforgettable culinary journey, making every visit a feast for the senses.

For those with a passion for fine food, La Vieja represents the pinnacle of seafood dining in Tenerife. From its seafood platters and its unique take on paella to a modest selection of exquisite meat dishes, La Vieja is a celebration of culinary diversity and quality.

La Vieja is not just a restaurant; it's a destination—a place where the love for seafood, the beauty of nature, and the art of hospitality converge to create moments of pure gastronomic bliss.
