Pensión Victor

San Sebastián de la Gomera


With tables in a tucked-away courtyard or out on the street, the unfussy restaurant at Pensión Victor has a short menu of local-style staples like sopa de berros, almogrote (a spicy pâté of soft cheese, pepper and tomato, usually spread on bread), grilled cheese and patatas arrugadas or tuna with mojo, plus a couple of vegetarian dishes (moussaka, vegetable couscous).
