Also La Cabañita park restaurant at Montaña la data is excellent. Roughly about €7 each way from PDI in a taxi. Really good food and beautiful setting. Can usually just walk in.
I’d highly recommend both.

"The best Tapas we have had is The rustico restaurant Maspalomas. It’s a hidden gem near La mirage. Quite small so you do usually have to book but it was really beautiful food and will be going again next time.

"For somewhere with white tablecloths, if that's important to you, try Chez Luigi in the Sandia centre. It's right above 2x2 if you want to have a look at that too. " Quite fond of Chez Luigi, great portions (not that we're big eaters), plus the added bonus of the free bottles of spirits on the table for after your meal. | |||

" Indeed, The Teriyaki banquet at Sakura is excellent - especially if you go as a group" Looked at Sakura when we were on PDI in June but never found anyone to go with. Glad to hear it's good we love sushi. | |||

"If you wish for a choice of quality restaurants, including tapas where many many of the locals choose to eat, head for Calle Partera Leonorita in San Bartolome. " Just to avoid confusion, San Bartolome is the name of the county where PDI, Maspalomas etc are located, and also of a small village up in the hills. The Calle Partera Leonorita I think is meant here (and where one of the restaurants we recommend is located) is in San Fernando in the country of San Bartolome - what feels like the northern part of PDI, but is totally different in character. Hope that helps! | |||

"Not tapas, but Restaurante los Porches near the Cita serves lovely food. For somewhere with white tablecloths, if that's important to you, try Chez Luigi in the Sandia centre. It's right above 2x2 if you want to have a look at that too. " Chez Luigi - our `go to` restaurant. In there most evenings. Also El Poncho - on the roundabout just down from Cita - so not far to walk to the bars and clubs afterwards. | |||

"We are in PDI 4-11 Oct and looking for restaraunt recommendations. Our preference is not too ‘touristy’, local cuisine with good tapas being our fave. R speaks fluent Spanish so we are happy to venture out to find hidden local gems. Hit us with your recommendations "La Tapita Los Jose’s (///snack.splurge.overheard) has been a worthy mention a few times. Also Ibericos J. Cruz (///lining.sternest.commutes). Miss Asia (next door to Ibericos J. Cruz) is a good Chinese and Asia House for Chinese all you can eat (not buffet, but cooked to order and brought to your table). But if you head to Calle Partera Leonorita, where these restaurants are situated, then you’re just slightly outside the main tourist areas, and will find a few gems where locals eat and have to opportunity to hone those Spanish skills. There’s a place called Tango Tapas not far from Gran Chaparral, which is pretty good as well. Nice surroundings, friendly owner (makes an awesome crème brûlée), great staff and lovely sangria. | |||

"Can anyone recommend a good Indian ?" We’ve yet to find one. We’ve had two meh experiences in Gran Canaria and the best Indian(s) in the canaries to date I’ve found in Tenerife. However, the pick of the bunch we’ve heard in PDI is Gorkha Palace (///overthrown.exerting.torchlight). We haven’t been here so can only go on other people’s comments. We might have one last stab at finding one and give this a try next month. Otherwise, we’re giving up on finding a decent Indian in GC. | |||

"People have been critical of the restaurants on the front but we've found them to be lovely, if a bit busy. There's a lovely restaurant right by the Faro and the Chinese/Thai a bit further along was fabulous. " Yes they are pricey and can be busy but they food is generally very good. I've tried most of them over the years as have yet to have a bad meal. Had poor service on occasions but always top food. | |||

"We like El Poncho Asador just near Cita Cente " Been meaning to go for years. It’s on our to do list this time round. Heard good things about it. Usually go to Marco Polo inside the Cita. Fantastic meat. Their chateaubriand is to die for and great VFM. | |||

"......Had poor service on occasions but always top food." TBF yes we did see that once or twice, but we tipped well anyway as the food was still good, and it was gratefully received by the waiters. From then on we got very good service, and lots of free drinks on our last day. | |||
