Reviews
Amazing place, great staff, atmosphere and food. Definitely wort checking. The personnel was amazing, offering us to have an amazing experience and the owner is a super cheerful person and he makes the atmosphere so pleasent. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 We tried the fajitas and the nachos, both were great
Two of us went in to have a little meal. We ordered some salads (burrata), same tapas, Tataki ATUN ROJO, a few brioches, some wine. Every single bite was delicious, everything was fresh. The tuna, the brioche sandwiches, everything was just full of flavour and fresh. Absolutely delicious. My wife and I really enjoyed the food, and the little jokes the waiters made. The atmosphere was very casual, I did not expect the food to be this good. I ordered a cheesecake desert for my wife, and was not going to eat any, but after a little bite, it changed me. I think I like deserts now. The only comment I have: it's very difficult to tell portion sizes from menu or prices. I understand some ingredients are more expensive and price goes up, but some things are priced like tapas but are more like pinchos. This is not an issue specific to this restaurant-bar, but generally in Spain, you could spend 12 Euro and have 2 very massive dishes or spend 20 Euro on 4 little bites. I wish there was something to show, "this is 1/3 of full meal" or "this is 1 meal, do not play games, do not order 4", "this is a delicacy you should only order 1 and several sides". Overall, very positive experience, I would love to come back next time I am in Malaga.
It was absolutely delicious with very friendly service. Highly recommended. A real insider tip.
An amazing restaurant experience! Everything we tried was absolutely delicious, and the food was truly the highlight of our visit. The staff were outstanding—attentive, friendly, and incredibly proactive, even resolving issues we hadn’t mentioned ourselves. The space was spotless, with a beautiful, modern design and great music that added to the atmosphere. Overall, a fantastic dining experience from start to finish. Highly recommended!
