Authentic Artisanal Italian Flavors in Costa Adeje
In the heart of the Fañabé tourist area lies Big Nonna Tenerife, an establishment that has secured a prominent spot within Costa Adeje's vast gastronomic scene. This restaurant focuses on a traditional Italian kitchen concept where artisanal preparation and respect for time-honored recipes are the hallmarks, offering a quality alternative for those seeking the authentic taste of the Mediterranean in the south of the island.
Fresh Pasta and Traditional-Style Pizzas
Big Nonna’s culinary proposal centers on the freshness of its ingredients. Its menu features a wide variety of pastas made daily and thin, crispy pizzas prepared following the standards of classic Italian cooking. This is not just fast food; here, the process is carefully managed, from the selection of the flour to the perfect cooking point, resulting in dishes that stand out for their balance and technical simplicity.
A Family-Friendly and Welcoming Atmosphere
What sets Big Nonna apart from other local venues is its warm atmosphere and focus on friendly service.

It is the ideal corner for a leisurely meal after a day of sun at Playa de Fañabé, away from the fast pace of the larger hotel complexes.
Insider Tips: Advice from a Local
- Secure your table: Although the venue is spacious, the Fañabé area is very busy, especially in the evenings. We recommend booking in advance if you plan to dine on a weekend.
- Transportation: If coming from other areas, the guagua (bus) will drop you very close to the Fañabé stop. If you drive, be patient with parking or use nearby public parking lots, as finding street parking can be a real struggle.
- Daily specials: Don’t stick only to the fixed menu; always ask about seasonal specials. They often prepare stuffed pasta dishes that are true gems.
- Relaxed vibe: You can comfortably arrive in your cholas (flip-flops) and casual wear after the beach; the vibe is completely informal and welcoming throughout the day.
Big Nonna Tenerife is the smart choice for those who value real Italian cooking without the frills. An essential stop in Costa Adeje to enjoy excellent value for money in a genuine setting.
