“ Great and traditional tapas for very fair prices. Went there twice during our holiday as these tapas tasted so good! Very friendly staff and although our Spanish is very limited, we felt very welcomed! Highly recommended. ”

“ Away on holiday with the wife and she wanted to try some real tapas (I lived in Spain for a number of years previously) so we had been recommended this place. The menu is in all languages and so not a problem to order, I speak Spanish but I am not sure that they would have a full description of food ingredients in English if someone has any allergies. It’s very traditional and nice and they are a really child friendly couple, the chef is really skilled, he was cleaning about five kilo of prawns, so although it was empty in the day when we were there, I guess he is nuts busy at night! There are a few Canarian specialities and we tried the local Morcilla and it was very different to the Adaluz versions I favoured in Spain, very sweet and yummy! Cool inside and took me back to time in Malaga City away from the Brits and tourist trails. ”

“ Fabulous little local tapas bar. Came across it accidentally. Super menu with lots of choice. Everything we ordered was perfect. We had both types of morcilla, calamari, meat balls, pork skewer, patatas bravas and stuffed peppers. Everything was delicious. €3.95 per tapas and the same for postres. Also yummy. ”

“ Lovely tapas! They are very tasty and value for money. The atmosphere was very cozy and the music was great (not too loud and good playlist). My favourite are croquettes, gambas, squid. The sangria was also very tasty. The dessert choices were great, just the right amount. The staff were nice even though they couldn’t speak English, we experienced good quality service. Just be mindful that they serve pan + butter/dips but there’s a small charge per person. Also prices do not include IGIC. ”
