Elegantly prepped traditional dishes like berros (watercress) soup, tuna with mojo, and grilled cheese with lashings of palm honey make this smart yellow-washed restaurant a perennial hit. Old-Hermigua photos hang from the walls; tables are decorated with candles and fresh flowers; and the owners take pride in their homemade desserts, including quesillo (a creamy custard). Bar open 9am to 1am.
