A Tempting Display of Fresh Fish and Meat
We loved the tempting display of fresh meat and seafood on display at the entrance to the restaurant. With such a wide selection of dishes on offer, it was a welcome relief to have our friendly waiter lead us to the chiller cabinet, where he talked us through the menu. We ate a small selection of Canarian tapas and the fresh fish of the day which was excellent.
The fish was cooked in the Canarian way and served with traditional Canarian potatoes or papas arrugadas and spicy mojo sauce and salad. We accepted the waiters wine selection and loved the crisp white he brought us from Lanzarote. Dessert was mango ice-cream and a delicious chocolate mouse, served alongside a rich Spanish coffee.
A Prime Location Overlooking the Beach
In addition to the amazing location, Restaurant El Capitán now has a complimentary cocktail bar in the outdoor section. We loved being able to sit at the bar, overlooking the beach with our delicious drinks. This busy restaurant also has occasional live music, mainly over the weekends and public holidays. We visited during the weekend and it was very busy, so it is advisable to make a reservation in advance if possible.
The restaurant is open 7-days a week, has ample adjacent parking, friendly efficient staff and a relaxed ambience, so it ticks all of our boxes on those practical issues. Take our advise, pop along to Restaurant El Capitán, soak up the view and enjoy a great meal as the Ocean glistens before you!
