La Caldera Restaurant, Canarian food at a good price in Firgas

11/06/2021 - Ruth González

The La Caldera restaurant is one of our favorites in terms of local food in Gran Canaria. Their dishes are delicious and, in addition, it is cheap. It stands out for its specialty in grilled meats and, of course, for its boiled pork ribs with pineapple (corn). In few places on the island you can try this typical Canary Islands dish. Anyway, it's not your only delicatessen, their mushroom and spinach croquettes have won us over. Not to mention their watercress stew!

The La Caldera restaurant is in the municipality of Firgas, in a small neighborhood of the same name. It's found just 5 minutes by car from the urban centers of Firgas y Arucas. So if you plan to visit one of these two towns, it is a great plan to eat!

If you are more of a spoon dish, you have to try the Watercress soup. A very typical in the Canary Islands. Of course, accompany it with a tapa of island cheese and house wine.

Contact and hours

Asadero La Caldera does not accept reservations. Besides, On weekends it is a horror trying to get a table. You have to arrive before 13:15 pm if you don't want to wait in a long line. Added to the queues is that the place is quite noisy when it is full. Therefore, if you can choose to go during the week or order takeout by calling 928616140, better. The last time we went We paid €11 per person, so we could classify it within the cheap restaurants in Gran Canaria.

Hello! I am RuthTourism expert, Canary Islander and traveler. Although I write, Local Guide Gran Canaria has two engines: Jorge (my partner) and I.

Here we merge my academic training (Graduate and Master in Tourism) with his mountain experience (MTB) to show you the real Gran Canaria: trails, landscapes and local off-the-beaten-path gastronomy.

Besides being your hosts on the island, we share guides to our trips so you can plan your getaways with the confidence of Follow routes that are 100% validated by us.

If we're not traveling or "tasting" restaurants, look for us in the mountains with our fur babies, Silver and Plata.

Shall we discover (and devour) the world together?
