La Gomera is an island of sensations that can be enjoyed with all five senses. In addition to the wonders of nature that characterise it, our island has other kinds of charms, such as its gastronomy, which will make your stay an unforgettable experience.
The products of our land such as ñame, almogrote, guarapo or gofio, among others, make our dishes rich in flavours and textures, making them a real pleasure for the palates of all our visitors. In addition to this, there are other products that nature gives us because of our marvellous geographical location, such as those that come from the sea that surrounds our island.
For your trip to La Gomera, here are the restaurants where you can enjoy the best tasting experiences on our island:
- Mirador de Abrante. Visiting the Mirador de Abrante is much more than a gastronomic experience. It is an architectural masterpiece, designed by José Luis Bermejo, consisting of a transparent cantilever suspended over the Atlantic at a height of 625 metres. A place where visitors can enjoy the pleasures of La Gomera’s gastronomy with unbeatable views of the village of Agulo and the island of Tenerife in front of them. In addition to the gastronomic offering, this experience at the viewpoint will allow you to discover a language that was declared by UNCESCO Intangible Cultural World Heritage and which has been a form of communication of the islanders for years, the silbo gomero.
- Las Rosas Restaurant. This restaurant, just 1 kilometre away from the town of Agulo and with spectacular views of Tenerife and Mount Teide, will immerse you into a typical atmosphere of La Gomera. The traditional cuisine of the Columbian island finds its maximum expression here, with a wide variety of à la carte dishes that will delight your palate.

In the heart of the Garajonay National Park, it is true benchmark of the traditional cuisine of La Gomera, in addition to a meeting point for those who like to enjoy the infinitely many trails that this enchanted forest has to offer.
