El Surtidor is located in the center of Agaete where typical Spanish tapas and beers are served in a picturesque dining room. It has an outdoor terrace.
Lovely little spot outside to enjoy a small tapa. The ambience inside was less than desirable with some stacked chairs and gentle storage.
Just ordered a juice, sparkling water, and “ropa vieja”
The food was nice, although nothing leaving me wanting more.
Service was lackluster as the people didn’t seem too pleased with their jobs ..
On the corner of a cosy town there are two tapas restaurants. We came specifically for El Surtidor, and it was the best tapas we had on the island!
The food is super, the grilled squid was amazing, so were our other choices. The waiter is a friendly guy, although he did forget our drinks at first, but nothing to complain about as the rest was perfect. There’s some traffic, but not too much or annoying.
One tiny advice: create some homemade desserts, as the prepackaged desserts we saw on another table had us deciding not to go for it.
Parking is best done across the bridge where a large parking area is.
Sitting on a traffic island, you'll be pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable the experience can be. We ordered fried fish accompanied by local Canarian potatoes, dressed with red sauce and Padrón peppers. Everything was fresh and delicious.
Canary Island cuisine restaurant must-visit! Recommend trying the chickpeas and a wide range of delectable dishes, it offers an authentic taste of the archipelago. The staff is incredibly friendly, adding to the warm and inviting atmosphere. For an unforgettable experience, I highly recommend dining on the terrace, where you can enjoy your meal while soaking in the charming ambiance and savoring the flavors of the Canary Islands.
The place is very nice for sitting outside. The service was terrible, the lady who served us seemed angry and impatient. The food was average, similar quality like in McDonalds.
