Candelita Restaurante by CANDELA MARBELLA

If you’re looking for a rare combination of:
- Good quality food
- Spanish dishes and Spanish carefully selected vines
- Sitting facing a beautiful view and also having a feelin of privacy
- A service which you can confidently call Great.
- Good taste in interior and in music
- Not for all money in the world
I’d say it is a place.

I’ve been selecting a restaurant for the last dinner of the vacation and out of four finalists I’ve picked this one and couldn’t have been more happy. All of those things matched.

What we ordered (and I’d order it once again if I come there):
- A tasting plate of starters (it combines different starts well and they are high quality products you wouldn’t buy in a supermarket because of the price but here you can taste a bit of everything)
- Classic paella (it has been several days since I’ve eaten it and I still crave it. I was eating it till the last rice piece). My sincere gratitude to the chef for this dish!
- A bottle of Spanish vine of our choice (it was expensive but it was totally worth it. I haven’t tasted one like this).
- One of the best cheesecakes I’ve ever eaten. Fresh, creamy, tender… that’s exactly what you want to experience when you order it.

We were hosted and cared for by Kyrill, who is a very thoughtful. If you are lucky to visit this place when he is working, be sure you’ll really feel how guests should in a restaurant that cares for long-lasting impressions.

I only wish I had time to come there earlier during the day to enjoy the view on the sea and the sunset that’s right in front of the restaurant.

This place was absolutely wonderful! It was our very first stop in Marbella, and we couldn’t have been happier. The food was bursting with flavor, every dish was delicious and full of personality. The staff made the experience even better; they were so welcoming and attentive, and even gave us great suggestions on places to visit during our stay. We left feeling grateful and excited, and we can’t recommend this restaurant enough. Definitely add it to your list when you are in Marbella!

Best paella ever I tried in Spain and I love good quality food. Service the best ( Erik is amazing) view OMG ♥️ the must have waiting list

Come for the view… stay for the food. Absolutely beautiful view of the beach. The paella took a while, but they made it to order so it was understandable. 30-35 minutes waiting for the entree. Passed by quickly with the beach and the bread. They don’t have smaller portions, so if you are alone, be prepared to take some home.

Very nice ambiance and the tapas were good! We had the tartar and salmon. With bread and free fries :) The paella was okay, but I must say i’ve had better.. the sea food inside didn’t taste too fresh.
