La Caldera De Tirajana

We had the mixed tapas of the day. A fish stew, meatballs, a seafood(possibly squid) dish and canarian potatoes. All came with bread. It was delicious. Especially the meatballs. There was a lady singing. Which really added to the atmosphere and authenticity.

Spent a week in SLdeT with 4 other hungry cyclists and this was our favourite place to eat in the evening. Very friendly staff and if you are looking for traditional, unpretentious, well prepared local food at sensible prices, look no further.

La Caldera sits on the main street of Santa Lucia, just a short walk from the parking lots that most visitors will use if they are driving up for a day trip. It stays busy, but I was disappointed in both the food and the service. The menu is eclectic: a bit of rabbit here, a little goat there, steak, lasagne, fish croquettes... sort of a themeless attempt to cover all bases. That should have been my first warning; I went for the goat, which turned out to be full of fat and gristle not exactly the tasty morsels I had imagined. I also ordered iced tea and got a can of fruity flavored liquid that wasn 't what I had imagined, either. None of this seemed to concern the staff; customers here are almost a captive market , because few tourists will see anywhere else nearby to eat. That may bring them in once, but if they are like me, they won 't come back.

Buen lugar para comer, buena calidad y buen sabor, carne de cabra sabrosa, muy recomendable .

Subir a Santa Lucía y comer en este restaurante, es un lujo. Comida excelente, camareros muy amables. La carne de cabra y los caracoles sublimes. Sin duda lo recomiendo porque cada vez que puedo repito.
