Best bistronomic restaurants in Morro Jable
1. Restaurant Salvaje
I’m sure you’re familiar with our taste for good food. Restaurant Salvaje in Morro Jable was one of our favorites in this town, and indeed on the whole island of Fuerteventura. We noticed that the establishment welcomed a lot of regular customers. The team in the dining room was very warm and attentive, and we felt very much at ease in a setting that gives pride of place to natural materials.
This table is a really excellent choice, especially if you’re looking for a place away from the hustle and bustle of the city but within easy walking distance. We loved the original and tasty tapas, as well as the soft homemade bread.
We opted for 3 courses of tapas, the restaurant’s specialty. First, lightly fried local shrimps, to be eaten with the shell on. We then opted for the artichoke confit with yoghurt sauce and Mojo, typical of the Canary Islands. Finally, the last course combined flavors and textures that were both sweet and full of character: cannelloni with goat’s meat and pumpkin sauce.
After all this delicious food, how can you resist a little dessert to end on a sweet note? We spotted the chocolate hazelnut cake before placing our first order. We were not disappointed, it was very tasty!

2. Restaurant Lo Nuestro
Another of our favorite addresses in Morro Jable, indeed in Fuerteventura: Restaurant Lo Nuestro. Elegance, tantalizing taste buds, impeccable service – there’s not a false note to be found at this bistronomic restaurant in town. Everything was perfect! When we arrived at the hotel, we loved the view of the palm trees and the ocean in the background. The large bay windows gave the impression of enlarging the space and looking out into the distance. It was a very pleasant sensation throughout the meal. We almost imagined ourselves in front of a painting where the large palm leaves and the Morro Jable lighthouse contrasted with the cloudless blue sky in the background. An image we won’t forget!
We were first tempted by the beet hummus sprinkled with fresh goat’s cheese, cherry tomatoes and basil. A light, melt-in-the-mouth starter to whet the appetite, with an interesting marriage of flavors and textures. For the main course, the smoked salmon with avocado ice cream and strawberry salmorejo won us over. It really was a superb combination of flavors, heat and textures, with a little sparkle on the palate to boot.
The chef’s creativity is impressive, and the dishes are full of surprising flavors and textures. Also, the team was very smiling and passionate. We have fond memories of this high-quality meal. Go ahead with your eyes closed!
