Qapaq
Los Cristianos
At Qapaq, an experience awaits you that goes far beyond the typical Peruvian restaurant. It's led by Rosalía Díaz Cieza, a Peruvian chef based in Tenerife who has masterfully blended her native cuisine with local island produce. This fusion is evident from the very first course: fresh ceviches, vibrant tiraditos, meats, and attentive service that conveys warmth and expertise.
Located in Los Cristianos, the restaurant boasts a modern, welcoming, and unpretentious atmosphere. The open kitchen allows you to watch each dish being prepared, adding a special touch and fully immersing you in the experience. It's one of those places where attention to detail is evident, yet there's no formality: the focus here is on enjoying the food, not on showing off.
One of its main attractions is the tasting menus, "Al Toque" and "Karu Kay," designed to explore various flavors of Peru in a single meal. They're perfect if you're unfamiliar with Peruvian cuisine or simply want to let yourself be guided by the culinary experience. They also have a menu for those who prefer to choose at their own pace, with options that change seasonally.
The service is friendly and attentive, and they explain each dish in detail. The clientele is usually varied: curious locals, tourists looking for quality, and people who return because the food is always good here. It's not a place you just stop by; it's one of those places you end up recommending to others.
Qapaq has that elusive balance: technique, flavor, and authenticity. You'll love it if you enjoy lovingly prepared food and the pleasure of discovering something special without leaving Tenerife.
