Dining

Three of Tenerife’s six Michelin stars have been awarded to restaurants at Abama, and the resort has become a true gastronomic destination for fansof famed Basque chef Martín Berasategui. Whether it’s fine or casual dining you crave, from near or from far, the 12 restaurants will delight and inspire.

M.B.
Abama’s signature restaurant has long held two Michelin stars for its inspired and inventive Basque cuisine. It is the only restaurant on the island with this double designation. Martín Berasategui’s longtime collaborator and protegée, Erlantz Gorostiza, has helmed the kitchen for seven years, applying expert technique to fresh local ingredients.

KABUKI
Ricardo Sanz’s Kabuki first earned its Michelin star in 2012, and since then it has continued to deliver distinctive Japanese flavours fused with traditional Western culinary techniques. The result is always visually stunning and impeccably delectable, with a view to the ocean to match.

MELVIN
This latest addition from the Martín Berasategui-Erlantz Gorostiza team has made its home in The Club at Las Terrazas, in a beautiful light-ﬁlled space with a broad terrace that looks out to the Atlantic and the island of La Gomera. Here, light and inventive Mediterranean fare has come home to roost in a casually elegant environment.
