About the neighbourhood: Málaga-Este

The Eastern district stretches along the coast from La Malagueta beach to the village-like fishing quarter of El Palo. It contains some of the city's most distinctive areas: La Malagueta (urban beach next to the port), Pedregalejo (palm-lined seafront paseo, traditional espetos), El Palo (working fishing community and casual chiringuitos), and El Limonar / Cerrado de Calderón (residential hillside with sea views). Local buses 11 and 34 connect the entire strip to the city centre. The seafront promenade is continuous and walkable end-to-end.

I've been to el Tabanko many times now so can say with conviction that the quality of the food is fantastic. The russian salad and the special Tabanko tabanko are my absolute favourite dishes. The atmosphere is great and the staff are friendly and accommodating. The terrace is large and a lovely spot to catch some sunshine.

Great new restaurant in El Palo. Good traditional food served in a typical Spanish style restaurant. Good service and atmosphere. We live in El Palo and will be visiting again soon. Recommended.

We visited the place last night and it was a great choice.
Among the wide variety of dishes to try, we ordered the braised pork cheeks, which were delicious, among other things.
Javi served us and was very attentive throughout the entire meal.
We'll definitely be back! 👍
