La Caponata

We ate here on the last night of our girls trip and it was our favourite meal by far. The staff were friendly and attentive. They took the time to talk us through all the specials in detail (two of us ended up ordering from the specials menu). The restaurant itself was near the beach front in a lively location. The decor was quaint and the plates/food presentation was neat yet eclectic which gave it a more authentic feel. Not to mention that everything tasted amazing! 5 out of the 6 of us are vegetarian so Italian is always a good call for non meat options and there was plenty to choose from at La Caponata. The menu was not too large so did not feel overwhelming yet there was still plenty of choice. I think the restaurant could have benefitted from a bit of background music but other than that, I couldn't fault it. Thank you for an amazing experience and our limocello shots

Such a gem where you can enjoy Italian/Sicilian food prepared by a Sicilian chef and excellent service. Besides the standard menu, they offer fresh daily specials that are also great. Always ask the waiter's recommendations. She will patiently detail you the dishes, so you can make the best choice. I had here the best beef carpaccio, while the rolling swordfish was an exquisite surprise.

Really really lovely place, came here on the first night of our holiday as it was right outside the hotel we're staying at. Amazing service, incredible Italian food and drinks. Would highly recommend ! They gave both of us a free shot of limoncello after our food too :)

A genuinely lovely experience for lunch here today. Attentive, friendly, quick service and a well shaded terrace. The pasta was excellent, we also ordered a childs carbonara which our son loved. Will definitely come back, we felt the price was reasonable for what we got. Thanks again!

This is the best Italian restaurant in Tenerife. Hands down. Small coverage so if you don’t book don’t expect to be seated. I’ve not had better Italian food outside Sicily. Do not walk to this restaurant, run! Otherwise someone will take your seat!! 10/10

My husband and I always make reservations when we come on holiday to Tenerife to dine at this quaint and wonderful little Sicilian restaurant. A great menu with a specials board that is regularly updated. Each dish bursting with authentic flavours and is home made by the chef who is from Sicily. Recommend the cheese ravioli with pistachio sauce....I have to say, it was the best pasta I have ever eaten—perfectly cooked and incredibly flavourful. Desserts are all quite unique and tasteful rather than the run of the mill items you usually see on dessert menus up and down the resort. It was refreshing to see a thought out menu for a change, with the added bonus of everything being fresh and homemade. The service was top-notch, with attentive staff who made us feel welcomed and valued. Their recommendations were spot-on and they go above and beyond to make your experience there a good one . I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a delightful meal in Tenerife, well worth a taxi ride if you're not staying in Adeje. It is best to contact them to reserve a table although they do accept walk in's. 5* restaurant that gives you something a bit different. You won’t be disappointed!
