Calamari sandwich in Ojos de Garza
The squid sandwich in question, for us the best squid sandwich on the island, is in the town of Ojos de Garza, at the Dos Hermanos Restaurant Bar. It is very close to the Gran Canaria airport in the municipality of Telde. If you come from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria You must take the Ojos de Garza exit which is just before arriving at the airport. On the contrary, if you come from the south, the Ojos de Garza exit is just past the airport.
Dos Hermanos Restaurant Bar
El Bar Restaurante Dos Hermanos offers more meals, but what it is famous for is its calamari sandwich. They usually put Cabbage salad with carrots and homemade aioli, but you can also order it with just squid. The squid is battered and fried. What we do is ask for one to share with a good Natural orange juice for breakfast or we take it to the beach or excursion.
Opening hours are Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 16:00 p.m. and from 19:30 p.m. to 22:00 p.m. On Saturdays they are only open from 9:00 a.m. to 16:00 p.m. and on sundays they close. We also leave you the telephone number here: 928574968.
Squid sandwich to take away
