Great seafood restaurant in Malaga, we had dinner here during our visit to Malaga, we had made a reservation at a different location but mistakenly arrived here instead. The staff were kind enough to let us stay. The seafood were very fresh. and all the dishes ordered were tasty. Would recommend to try when traveling in Malaga.

About the neighbourhood: Distrito Centro
Málaga's historic core, bounded by the Guadalmedina river to the west, the port to the south and the slopes of Mount Gibralfaro to the east. The district contains the Cathedral, the Roman Theatre, the Alcazaba fortress, the Picasso Museum and the Pompidou Centre, plus the main shopping street Calle Marqués de Larios. Inside Distrito Centro sit the well-known sub-areas of Centro Histórico, Soho, La Merced and Lagunillas. The area is almost entirely pedestrianised, served by Metro Atarazanas and the Málaga–Centro Alameda rail station.

9,219 total reviewsThe restaurant is tucked away in a small alley and is always packed. I recommend making a reservation in advance, or you’ll end up waiting a long time. The food is delicious, and the seafood is fresh and plentiful. If you visit, I highly recommend trying their local sangria.
Good paella but pretty expensive. The restaurant is on a narrow street opposite a large building, therefore you will have no nice view and cheerful vibe. Maybe it is suitable for an intimate dinner
Tasty food, friendly service. Excellent value for money. Relaxed atmosphere. An excellent choice also for persons dining solo.
The food was disgusting, frites without salt, rest of food so salty that imposing to eat even I’m a salt lover. All things like calamartitos, french fries, all fried seafood is more boiled that fried. Everything comes late, communication with waiters is TERRIBLE !!! They just don’t understand english in one of the most touristy cities, and because of that things are wrong. Found hair in paella and when I said the waiter gets extremely pissed and trying to tell me that is from gambas. First time have seen blond hair by gambas :) Huge disappointment! The worst experience ever.
