BLANCA SQUARE — Restaurant in Puerto de la Cruz

Do try this new hotspot if you are visiting. It's a new owner. Great menu. High quality life music. Friendly waiters. Awesome fresh food. New chefs!

I have been a local regular customer since 2019. I know what the old owner offered. It wasn't bad at all, but this is the best grilled vegetable plate I have tasted on the island so far. I want to try out more.

The location is unbeatable! Hence, the attraction. Musicians come and go. I paid the bill but stayed for the music! Best guitar player I've heard so far on Tenerife.

I tried out the new owners experience today.

It's a massive upgrade! I don't drink alcohol but they still have a lovely piña colada sin alcohol.

I always feel like a tourist in my own hometown when I sit here and soak up daily life of the beautiful Plaza del Charco.

They deserve the 5-star review! Just don't rent a hotel room close by. If you prefer sleeping over noisy and happy neighbors.

Plaza del Charco is where it all starts and ends. You might prefer the buzz from your balcony. I guarantee interesting scenery. Especially late at night.

Locals come to this spot to dance. Summer is my favorite season of the year, and I always take a jacket with me. It can be chilly here with the sea close by. Depending on the time you arrive.

So take layers and stay for 5 hours. Like I did today. No one bothers me like waiters in Paris are supposed to do.

I ate lunch, ordered green tea, coffees, and lots of water. I went up and down to the toilets, and no one ever pushed me into ordering. Toilets are actually really clean now. Massive improvement.

So simply said! Go and find out for yourself. You won't be...

Horrible service 45 minute wait for 2 meals servers stepped on my toes without and apology (pretended not to see me) Prawns still had all the poop in them Steak was still raw even though medium was requested Set price is on the menu, but they fail to mention that there is a 7% tariff added that cannot be removed … Before ordering we asked the man who reeled us into the restaurant whether chips with the stake could be changed to rice, in which he stated that it is possible but we must tell the waiter too. We did this and he was hesitant and then said yes he can do that and also asked who said we can request this (we pointed to him). It comes to paying for the meals now, the guy has added rice as an extra charge, we tell him the same thing as earlier, and acts like we didn’t tell him, he begins to get angry and hurries off to change it, he comes back and slams the card reader on the table and then angrily tells us to get up and go inside to pay.

Would not recommend this place, the atmosphere is disgusting, smokers at every table while you eat, dogs around the table, and also a strong smell of...

We enjoyed a very pleasant evening at Blanca Square. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by a very lovely French hostess who gave us a charming and warm reception. ​The overall atmosphere in the restaurant was fantastic. This was partly due to the live performance by a fun singer who created a cosy atmosphere. The music was so catchy that people were even dancing in the restaurant! ​Food and Value for Money: The food was excellent! Everything we ordered did indeed taste delicious and the portions were large. Considering the high quality and the generous portions, we found the price-quality ratio to be excellent.

​Service: The service, in addition to the charming hostess, was outstanding. Our orders were taken quickly and also brought to the table fast. Moreover, the staff paid a lot of personal attention to us. We felt very welcome and pampered throughout the evening.

​Conclusion: This is an absolute must-visit for anyone looking for tasty food, generous portions, a wonderfully cosy atmosphere where you can even dance, and fast, personal, and hospitable service. We will...
