Where to eat in Los Escullos

Los Escullos sits next to San Felipe castle and Arrecife beach. Here are the village's best-rated restaurants, with a link to each listing and its phone number to book. It's a practical guide: the places are ordered by customer rating.

Los Escullos is a small place and that's its charm: a handful of houses, San Felipe castle and a few spots to eat without leaving the coast. It's more a comfortable break after the beach or a walk than a grand dinner, but the setting settles the bill: nobody can take the cliff views away from you. Off season it empties right out, so don't take it for granted and call before heading up. If you're around the cove or La Isleta, this is the handy stop.
