Tipico Canario - Tías

This is now an Indian restaurant Bombay Babu . Visited during stay at club del carmen.The food was cooked to my taste by the chef and was served by a friendly and knowledgibe staff. If you like indian food give this place a try,you wont be disappointed

Local cuisine, excellent food, very friendly staff, the goat was off the scale. So so tasty. Garlic mushrooms to die for. They could just serve garlic on its own it was that good. Not to be missed. Opposite the San Antonio Hotel. Spanish PR excellent.

This place is excellent. Lovely, friendly staff delicious food. We stopped in towards the end of our holiday and quickly realised that we should have stopped in a lot sooner. We asked what was recommended that day and went with the sea bass and the goat. The rose wine was clean and fresh, the beer and the coffee strong and rich. Crispy well seasoned skin on the delicious sea bass and the tender and flavourful goat did not disappoint. Another group of dinners who left shortly after we arrived had the paella. It looked and smelt amazing. They highly recommended it. They said they came frequently and that it was one of their favourite restaurants. We will definitely be returning before we leave. The place is overlooked due to its location off the strip and being surrounded by numerous all inclusive hotels but it is well worth visiting. Our total bill for three courses, wine, beer and coffee came to less than we 'd paid for regular service and average food in some of the better known restaurants on the strip. Please do not be put off by its well worn exterior and empty seats. You will not be disappointed. A special mention to the guy doing the (friendliest) hard sell on the street. He promised tasty food, friendly service and a range of traditional Canarian food. That is exactly what we got. Step away from your manic, bland, generic all inclusive buffet and relax with a REAL holiday atmosphere and REAL food. Fantástico.

Intended to eat at a nearby restaurant but as it was shut chose the tipico canerio. I started with prawns in garlic that was was OK but my wife’s mussels were not; the white wine sauce was tasteless. For mains we had zarzuela and grilled fish. Both dished appeared to have the same ingredients except the zarzuela was in a oily tomato sauce. The grilled fish seemed to be pan fried (oily) and so over cooked that it was very difficult to cut and inedible. When we complained the cost of the main corse was taken of the bill. I am concerned as the restaurant has rave reviews, perhaps it has changed hands or the regular chef was off.

We had eaten here for many years but found that since our last visit it had changed hands several times and had stayed away. One evening we decided to give it a try and were it disappointed. The food was great and served fast by attentive staff all at very reasonable price , this one is now back on our list of regulars
