La Fuente Del Mirador — Restaurant in Adeje

In the artificial holiday world of Costa Adeje, the beach section "Playa del Duque" is one of the tastier ones. Around the small shopping centre "El Mirador", which creates the illusion of a Mexican hacienda, there are four restaurants, all of which are among the "better" ones in Costa Adeje.

We paid about 75€ each, and didn’t drink any alcohol at all. The staff was very...

Nothing wrong with the dishes at all - good cuts of fish that were cooked fine but just a little bland would be my only comment. Healthy though. Staff lovely though and a really nice area.
