The bodega's cavernous insides are adorned with hanging legs of ham and wine barrels, foreshadowing a dining experience heavy on the meat (cooked and served here in a multitude of different ways) and accompanied by an extensive selection of house wines. Pick up a bottle at the adjacent shop on your way out.

Enriclai (Santa Cruz de La Palma)

Enriclai (Santa Cruz de La Palma)

Enriclai only seats a few and is in high demand, so book ahead. The intimate restaurant has no written menu, so all the day's offers (these change depending on what's fresh or in season) are talked over with Enriclai's amicable hostess Carmen. Local wine varieties are represented in abundance.

La Casa del Volcan (Fuencaliente)

La Casa del Volcan (Fuencaliente)

Steps away from the San Antonio Volcano Visitor Center is La Casa del Volcan – a longstanding local establishment heralded for its innovative approach to cooking Canarian culinary classics. It's been producing its own wine for nearly a century now, too.

Chipi-Chipi (Santa Cruz de la Palma)

Chipi-Chipi (Santa Cruz de la Palma)

Located off the trodden path uphill from Santa Cruz de la Palma, Chipi-Chipi's lush garden setting and excellent meat grills make for some great value, filling lunches. Meat comes with a side of ubiquitous Canarian wrinkly potatoes and dip sauces to go along.

La Placeta (Santa Cruz de La Palma)

La Placeta (Santa Cruz de La Palma)

The popular La Placeta serves quick bites and tapas on ground level, and turns into a more refined dining venue upstairs, from where a typical plant-bedecked balcony looks over the quaint Borrero square. Menu offerings range from international to local fare.

Casa Goyo (Los Cancajos)

Casa Goyo (Los Cancajos)

The unassuming Casa Goyo serves up some of the best seafood on La Palma, which is saying a lot for an island where fresh fish is easily acquired by nearly any eatery. Try one of the grills or deep-fried octopus and calamari – one of the island's specialties.

La Placita (San Andres y Sauces)

La Placita (San Andres y Sauces)

La Placita's palm-tree-shaded outdoor seating area with a view is rarely empty – arrive early to secure a spot in one of San Andres' favourites, a restaurant that serves a refreshing mix of Thai and Canarian flavours. The coffee selection is extensive to match.

Casa Osmunda (Brena Alta)

Casa Osmunda (Brena Alta)

Heralded by many as the island's finest, Casa Osmunda is miles ahead of most upper-range restaurants on La Palma. The menu is heavily focused on Canarian flavours, and chefs are there to accommodate diners' dietary requirements. The wine selection impresses with labels of a varied price range.

Parrilla Los Braseros (Santa Cruz de la Palma)

Parrilla Los Braseros (Santa Cruz de la Palma)

Uphill from the island's capital lies a true find for meat-lovers and diners with dietary restrictions. Parrilla Los Braseros offers a mouthwatering selection of meat grills kept hot and steamy by the delightful miniature BBQ grills they are served on. Special meals for those with allergies and/or dietary restrictions are also available.

Restaurante Azul (Garafia)

Restaurante Azul (Garafia)

The sought-after Restaurante Azul is only open on weekends (from 1pm onward), so be sure to make a reservation if your intentions to dine here are serious. The glorious vistas are accompanied by excellent fresh fare, ranging from prime cuts of meat to seafood to a few vegetarian options.
