Guachinche Casa Estela
★ 4.5 (309 reviews)
Guachinche Casa Estela is one of those authentic spots that keeps Canarian tradition alive in La Orotava. Located on Calle Las Eras del Marqués, this traditional guachinche opens its doors only four months a year, coinciding with the harvest season, making it an even more special and anticipated experience for locals and visitors alike. Here, Estela welcomes diners with the warmth and charm of someone sharing their home, offering homemade wine while you prepare your palate for what's to come.
The culinary offering is simple yet hearty: traditional Canarian dishes like papas arrugadas, salted fish, and grilled meats, all prepared with that homemade touch you can only find in genuine guachinches. The wine, both red and white, is from their own harvest and stands out for its smoothness and nuances. Weekends get quite lively, so booking ahead is highly recommended. If you're looking for an authentic experience, unpretentious and with the true flavor of traditional Tenerife, this is your place.
