Gabela
About
In Tenerife, Gabela is a restaurant on Carr. General, 146, Loc, 38370 La Matanza de Acentejo. The address places it on the northern side of the island, in the Acentejo district between Santa Cruz and Puerto de la Cruz.
The kitchen serves food that has drawn a steady following, and the setting on the main road through the municipality makes it a practical stop for anyone driving between the capital and the northern resort. First-time visitors can expect a sit-down meal in a venue that trades on its cooking rather than its size, with the dining room arranged for both couples and small groups. A 4.8 average across 66 reviews places it among the higher-regarded addresses in the north.
The Canary Islands have a mild subtropical climate, with warm, sunny weather for most of the year, so the northern road is pleasant to drive in almost any month. Whales, dolphins and sea turtles live in the surrounding waters, and several islands have protected laurel forests, which gives the higher ground above the coast a green character.
Carnival is celebrated across the islands with parades, music and satirical performances, and the northern towns hold their own versions alongside the larger events in Santa Cruz. The main islands were home to the Guanche people before Spanish conquest in the fifteenth century, and the Acentejo district takes its name from a battle fought in that period.
