Taberna de Nino

Puerto del Carmen


Tempting pintxos (Basque tapas) are piled up on the bar northern-Spain-style at this easy-going old-timer with a roomy terrace overlooking the fishing port. Heartier mains include grilled meats, while tapas run from fish croquettes and potatoes in Cabrales-cheese sauce to vegan-friendly bites of falafel, green-curry tofu and tempura mushroom. Great for a sunset drink with a tapa or two.
