Le Bistrot d’Alain

Delightfully cosy French Restaurant in the commercial heart of Los Cristianos. Friendly, attentive and generally excellent service, but above all mouth-​watering cuisine. Originally owned by the celebrated ‘chef Alain’ and now run following his retirement by an enthusiastic compatriot who relocated from Paris to Tenerife after the financial crash and who relishes the pace and quality of life here enormously. If you hanker for an authentic gourmet experience amid all the tapas and paella, or just fancy a change, take your palate on a trip to Alain’s Bistro and savour the flavour. The rabbit and sole meunière are especially good, but the menu is varied and tempting enough to easily justify several return trips. As this was only our first visit we have awarded 4 richly deserved stars but look forward to making it 5 next time.

Restaurante ideal para una cita ideal. Con grandes facilidades como parking con lo que no tienes que perder tiempo en buscar aparcamiento, sin problemas en la reserva de mesas y es un local muy bien acondicionado

I love Restaurant Le Bistrot D’Alain in Los Christianos. It’s unashamedly french, providing specials in french on a blackboard in addition to the printed menu (in many languages).I’ve been going here for many years, it’s one of the first French restaurants I ever visited in Tenerife and I keep going back. It’s cosy, the food is classic french and well prepared. Steaks are always perfect, soups are full of flavour, salads are classic and wonderfully dressed. Blackboard specials are a real treat, with snails, rabbit, foie gras and scallops frequently available. Desserts are simple, classic and delicious. I’ve had the occasional disappointing dish, much the same as with frequent visits to any restaurant, but given the number of times I’ve eaten here, this pales beside the number of fabulous meals. Always book, and earlier is better because as the evening wears on and Alain is overloaded with orders things can get slow — he’s in the kitchen on his own.(Sorry Alain) If you want to make a night of it then you wont mind this though. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough. I know it’s not Canarian, but if you eat French just once in Tenerife it should be here.
Superb it just has to be 5 Stars!!!1
