This small but elegant restaurant is located centrally in Playa del Inglés, below the Hotel Las Walkirias, on the main road leading to Playa del Ingles beach. It is also located close to the Yumbo Shopping Centre.

We were impressed!

When we heard talk about La Gustera’s opening and of its interesting menu, we took it to the test straight away. And we were impressed! For starters we had the king-prawn special, nachos with guacamole, and a salad with caramelized goats cheese. The presentation was elegant and each dish impressed.

For our main courses we chose a fresh fish fillet in a delicate sauce and perfectly cooked steak, which melted in the mouth. Everything was again presented in modern style and served swiftly. The menu is extensive and the prices are affordable even though the dishes are of a higher quality, presentation and size, compared to many restaurants in the area.

Their Specialties Are Not to be Missed

The owner of La Gustera has a clear vision, which is to create a modern space with a relaxed ambiance, which would make diners feel instantly welcome. He has succeeded. With their great choice of international and local dishes everyone, from adults to children, can find something to enjoy.

We loved the flexibility of being able to enjoy traditional tapas one evening, Mexican dishes on another and one of La Gustera’s Italian specialties on yet another and know that each dish will be of the same quality.

The restaurant is open at lunchtime and evening, meaning you can enjoy a simple one course lunch or a more leisurely dinner. The vibe at La Gustera means your attire can be relaxed or more formal, depending on the occasion.

The Decor

The decor of the small restaurant has the feel of a chic French bistro. The monochrome colour scheme works effortlessly to create a very inviting atmosphere. The interior of the restaurant houses approximately twelve tables, whilst the pretty outdoor terrace accommodates eight. So lots of room to accommodate its guests.

La Gustera’s very central location, means that diners choosing to sit outside can enjoy a cool drink as they watch people strolling along the popular street. The terrace area of the restaurant is ideally shaded under large modern parasols. This means that even on the hottest summer day the temperature remains very comfortable.

How to find the Restaurant La Gustera

If you arrive by car, we think it is best to park on the main road just above called Avenida de Tirajana. The road directly in front of the restaurant, which leads all the way to the beach, is partly pedestrianized.

Also, the Yumbo Centre is short walk away and here you will find ample parking. It is a place we can recommend you to try any of the meals and we are convinced you will come back for more.

This place is a little jewel. A very quite place to enjoy your dinner with a very friendly service. Perfect customer service. I went few nights to try tapas and fillet and everything was tasting so good and I'm Italian so if I say it's very good it's true. One Min from Don Miguel and Ritual hotels near Yumbo.

Unfortunately my own experience was very different to my partner who enjoyed his fish. I ordered the chicken curry which I didn't enjoy much. The chicken tasted strange and didn't taste fresh. I should have voiced my concerns to the staff but I didn't. I later had and still one day later have stomach cramps. I blame myself for not pointing my concerns. The waiter was partly very attentive and friendly... yet was looking away at her friend and talking to him in the street when my partner was ordering the food. I gave the food a two based on my partner's positive comments on his food.

* Extremely good fish soup!!!!!!!!!! The soup asked for bread (better still a crunchy toast) with butter. Nobodody asked. Easy money not earned.* Chef's sole interpretation a bit disappointing. Too much happening on the plate. Not consistent. Less is more. The fish was dry, with too little flesh.* It took 10 minutes after the meal was finished to be suggested a dessert. Not home made so I refused.* Nice attention of one of the waitress to fill in the glass of wine that was empty with the wine I had ordered.* Too much time waiting for a bill. I made a sign which was confirmed and understood and the bill did not arrive. After a few minutes I left and paid at the counter. Tip easily missed.* The evening was busy. Only two, at times three ,waitress/waiters were seen for the whole restaurant.

Very nice and good behaving waitress. Service was simply amazing and very cute - simply splendid. And food was good, I ordered seafood soup and paella and friend got some tapas with peppers. Everything was rlly nice, maybe the soup could taste bit more fishy, but still good and paella was rlly good and well-prepared, maybe it should taste more seafoodish, cuz it was too dipped in some tomato sauce.

Great food at a reasonable price. Looked after very well by the staff who served lovely fresh and hot food and despite us visiting on a cold evening, they put the heaters on and gave us blankets helping us to enjoy the evening with our friends. We'll worth a visit!

Poor end to an otherwise good evening😕 Good service and very nice food. However, at no point did the staff bother to advise that they could not take cards, until we asked to pay by card! They then insisted we go across the road to the hotel cash machine as their machine was not working. Funnily enough only 10 minutes before this a customer had come in and asked could they pay by card tonight seeing as they couldn't last night, which finally made sense!! Turns out there's previous reviews posted where the same thing has happened. The waiter suddenly didn't understand English despite having spoken it all night, and his other English speaking colleague had also disappeared. As I said, very poor end to an otherwise nice meal, but sadly we will not be going back 😒

Dali encouraging clients to come in is very good at his job, enthusiastic, professional & knowledgeable. Beautiful restaurant, the mixed fish & seafood grill and the mixed meat grill both delicious, presentation perfect. Lovely sides. Best meal so far on the island is the fish grill. Great staff, value for money, worth every penny. Definitely recommend.

Nice restaurant. Authentic food, quick service. There is allergen information on the menu but it's not always accurate (e.g. paella /patatas bravas said it's got gluten in it but they said it wasn't).Good portions, good staff.There is no baby change available in the restaurant but you are given a separate table to use.Service depends on the waiter you get. One time it was fast and great, the next it was slow and you struggled to get the guys attention.

Nice food but service can be slow. Kids menu available with typical kids stuff. They would have made more money from us, if they actually were more attentive as I left from being thirsty!Toilets are relatively small and there is no baby change available. Also, be aware that despite saying they have an allergy menu available, they do not. They are able to just point at things that are ok but definitely not comprehensive.

Possibly the biggest plates we had during our holiday. The mixed grilled fish for two was enormous and included salmon, tuna, sole, sea bass, prawns and king prawns, mussels, squid with potatoes and salad on a side. Don't forget to order a jug of sangria, it's really good and refreshing! They offer a nice personable service, they really took care of us.

A great restaurant! Really nice and welcoming atmosphere, the service is great as well. Went there twice on our week long holiday, very satisfied with both meals. Would especially recommend for families and also if anyone is looking for a place to go on their holiday birthday:) The waiters sing and bring a huge ice cream platter. All in all a good restaurant.

Lovely restaurant, friendly staff and atmosphere was good. Ordered a beef skewer with peppercorn sauce and chips and a seafood paella for one. The peppercorn sauce was to die for and it was the first restaurant we'd seen that does a paella for one as all the others say minimum two people.I would definitely eat here again and would recommend to anyone looking for amazing food.
