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.

Just passing by this place, saw margarita had a happy hour two for one, so we stoped. And wow great margarita but end up ordering some taco birria, and they are really really good. Great snack and margaritas!! Well Mexican tapas for us😂And the service was just on point!

The mixed started plate was absolutely amazing! Everything tasted fresh and all of the flavours blended togheter amazingly. Everything blew me away! I definitely recommend the birria tacos.

The atmosphere was lovely and the service great! And the cocktails 😋😋

The Tacos were incredibly delicious!!! You have to try the Cochinita Pibil. The taste is extraordinary 🥰 Upstairs, you can sit very comfortably and enjoy a lovely atmosphere. Downstairs, it can get a bit crowded. The chef was also super friendly and in a great mood, just like the waiting staff 😃 They were both really brilliant and we’ll definitely be coming back here again.

Nicely designed & cute Mexican over two floors. Staff were efficient and friendly despite the crowds and Semana Santa craziness going on out the front. Pork pastor burrito was flavorsome and had a warm spicy kick (side salad was also very well dressed - could have been more offered on plate though). If am being picky - Should a burrito be wrapped at the ends too? (this one wasn’t). And felt odd to be charged a bit extra to add rice inside (I thought this was standard - and it didn’t mention that on the menu that I could see). But overall - happy to have visited, food was authentic, tasty and pretty good value.

High expectations given the amazing reviews but unfortunately our experience was not very good. The waitress who seated us and took our order was very abrupt and lacked patience. Our first drink order was incorrect and asking them to fix it seemed an inconvenience, we ordered a nacho starter to share which took an incredibly long time to arrive and was slightly burnt.

Not even half way through that the mains arrived meaning everything seemed cooked at the same time.

The food wasn't anything special, lacked any real flavour, The chilli is very pale looking. I asked for mine to be spicy but was not particularly very spicy. We never got asked 'How was the food'? We never got asked if we 'wanted any other drinks'? I noticed tables of Spanish speakers got looked after more than we did which made us feel less valued.

We noticed someone had a birthday because a desert with a candle and fuss was made, it was my partners birthday so I asked if the same could be done? A dessert was brought and just thrown on the table with no candle. Upon finishing the meal and asking for the bill the waitress said 'Do you want tequila shot'? We said yes please, upon getting the bill we had been charged for them and also they added on drinks we never asked for so double check your bill before paying.

This was one of the most poor table experiences I have received in a restaurant for a very long time. The only time the waitress seemed interested or polite was when she was explaining that a tip is not included on the bill... if the tip was included I would have asked for it to be removed.

Regrettably, I will never come here again.
