La Matanza de Acentejo takes its name from a battle in which Guanche warriors defeated the Castilian invaders. Today this green stretch of the north is wine country, and its guachinches cook with fresh local produce and serve their own home-made wine.
Some of the island's most old-fashioned guachinches are here. Menus cover meat dishes, fresh fish and desserts made in-house, and the mood is easy-going, so a weekday lunch with friends or a family dinner both work well.
