Vaqueria Las Salinas - Agueimes

The service was very friendly and the interior decoration of the restaurant makes for an interesting dining experience. However, the quality of our food was a bit mixed my ropa vieja was excellent, but my wife's meal (unfortunately can't remember what it was) was quite bland.

It looks bad from the outside, even closed perhaps BUT.....Jean and I had the craziest food experience ever in this place. Sophisticated dining not, but a shed crammed with ****. Old bikes, radios etc etc...... the flooring........aggregate! A place alive with Spanish families. I chose the eggs Canarian style with potatoes as my starter followed by Ropa Vieja for main. The starter proved to be two fried eggs sunny side up with chips. I loved it! The main was a stew translated as old clothes . Pork, beef, chicken,beans, potatoes.......a traditional leftovers dish. I loved that too. Jean Cummings,more sensible, had tomato salad with oregano followed by a pork chop and chips. Both half portions allegedly. Plus a couple of beers a jar of red collapso.......and the bill.....the square root of not a lot! Suffice to say we are going back! Finish your trip off with a mile long stroll along the Arinaga seafront

I came here a few years ago but the only way to really show how quirky it is to someone else is to go! We left it until late as that's when the locals eat and there were six tables full when we entered. Be aware that if you aren't a big eater it's worth getting a half portion, I had the ribs which is one of the weekend specials, and it was literally three huge belly pork slices still in one piece with lovely crackling. The bread and Alioli are worth a visit on their own! Staff were very helpful and friendly and supplied an English menu as my Spanish is limited. . I still find the setting more fun than the food, with bicycles hanging from the roof and ancient phones/TVs/typewriters etc filling the display cabinets. Sadly, we remembered using much of this stuff! Maybe not a place you'd use regularly but definitely worth the occasional trip to enjoy the experience.
