Casa Osmunda is a restaurant in an old house in Breña Alta, on the climb to the Concepción viewpoint, between the island's main road and the hospital. It opened on 15 May 2007 and cooks Canarian recipes with its own touch: it presents itself as a specialist in meat and fish, with market produce and off-menu suggestions. It has had a Repsol Sol since 2022 and in February 2026 announced on its website that it had renewed it.
Doña Osmunda's inn
The house was a humble dwelling where traders travelling from the capital to Los Llanos, the fertile valley where goods and livestock were bought and sold, used to stop; the restaurant takes its name from Doña Osmunda, the woman who looked after them. The renovation kept the hipped roof, the porch and the interior walls of volcanic stone. There are two dining rooms, a terrace and a vaulted room in what was the cistern, reserved for private celebrations, as well as a large wine bar.
Papas with rabbit, tuna and Palmero cheese
To share, confit potatoes stuffed with rabbit in salmorejo (€14.50), aubergine sticks from its own vegetable garden with cane honey (€11.50) or the Palmero cheese board (€14.50); the garlic prawn or Iberian ham croquettes are €1.50 each. For the main course, the fish of the day or the tuna ingot with passion fruit and teriyaki (€19.50); among the meats, the sirloin with Palmero cheese cream and vermouth pear (€24.80) or the braised Iberian cheek (€21.50). Its beef steak tartare costs €23.90. There is a children's menu from €14, and homemade desserts such as tiramisu (€7.50). The menu published on its website shows two lists with different prices and does not make clear whether they include IGIC (Canary Islands tax): take them as a guide and confirm at the table.
Open kitchen from one to eleven
It opens Tuesday to Saturday from 13:00 to 23:00, without closing in mid-afternoon, and the house prides itself on not rushing anyone. That allows a late lunch after coming down from the Roque or an early dinner before a stargazing session leaving from Los Cancajos, about ten minutes by car. Sunday and Monday, closed. Book by phone on 922 412 635 or 609 623 970, or from the form on its website.
With children or in a group
For children there is their own menu, and for baptisms, communions, weddings or courses with a meal the house organises the whole event. If you sleep at the Parador de La Palma or the Casa Rural Carlota, in Breña Baja, you are a few minutes away by car.
