Ghio’s Burger Crafters — Restaurant in Santa Cruz de Tenerife

The best burgers we tried so far in Tenerife! Coming close to the best burger we ever had, which was in New York. My husband had the Pink Floyd and I had a Burger al Gusto, which meant I could pick 4 ingredients (apart from the bread, the meat, the sauce and the fries) for the price of 11,90€ (my pick: Crispy Chicken with Mushrooms al Vino, Coleslaw, an Onion Ring, Manchego Cheese and Alioli Sauce in a Parmesan-Oregano Bread). I usually don’t eat my burger with chicken but I wanted to try it this time and it was perfect! The prices are very fair too and the service is very nice, although you should bring some time with you as my husband and I were here on May the 3rd (Día de la Cruz) from about 16:30 till 19:00 and despite the city being empty, the restaurant was completely full (inside and outside) the whole time. But it’s definitely worth the wait. Even the dessert (Apple Crumble) was a dream. We took a bit of our burgers home (as we wanted to have space for the dessert) and they tasted great even the next day. Just three little suggestions for improvement: 1. the Onion Rings could do with a little less coating or should be thicker sliced. 2. better, sharper knives would be handy (maybe steak knives?), as it proved to be quite difficult to cut the burgers without making a mess and 3. better plates that offer more space to handle the burgers. I know that the “slates” used to be trendy a while ago but I had to prevent my burger from falling from the slate onto the table the whole time. When dealing with such great, stuffed burgers, bigger plates offer more comfort. 😉 Anyway, as we live on the island, we will definitely be back again coming all the way from...

My husband loved his burger from here. The wait staff were very helpful and multilingual. They were also upfront about the degree of cross contamination that takes place in you have any food allergies. I have celiac disease and did not head their warnings thinking that a salad and gluten free cheesecake would be safe options. They were not. I was able to narrow down my exposure because we had only eaten at a gluten-free bakery other than eating here the whole day. Also, my tongue swells slightly and almost immediately when I am exposed to gluten. If you do not have a gluten intolerance then this is a great place to grab food but if you do, I would definitely look for another option. I also wanted to thank the server who gave me the heads up and was honest. Because of him, my symptoms weren’t...

Everything is quick and friendly, and no one pushes you to order dessert or anything else.

The restaurant is located on a quiet street in the center of Santa Cruz. The interior has a bar-like feel, while the outdoor tables are cozy and sheltered from the sun by umbrellas. In the evening, the warm lights create an even more inviting ambiance.

I believe this is the best burger we've had on the island so far. Although the burgers are large, they're easy to eat with your hands, which is a big plus. We can tell they use high-quality ingredients, with everything balanced, from the sauce to the vegetables. The sweet potato chips are particularly delicious. Our favorites are the Bee Gees and Pink...
