The gastronomic offer at the El Capitan restaurant is quite wide and of quality. In his letter you meet the basics of canarian cuisine, in addition to the Mediterranean diet. We recommend you try their delicious salads, an exquisite salad, roasted octopus with mojo and even paellas. They also have a fridge displaying the fresh fish.
In addition, There is no shortage of good wrinkled potatoes in their menu. Here they are served with Canarian cheese.

The price per person is about €20-25, depending on whether you order wine or not. If you order a fish of the day, the price per person goes up quite a bit.
