Paco y Benito son los mejores. Sitio muy rico para desayunar (jamón espectacular) y servicio top. Hemos ido 11 personas y han sido todos muy atentos y organizados. Paco tiene su rinconcito donde corta jamón y prepara todo con mucho cariño. Sin duda, volveremos!

Restaurante muy aconsejable, en pleno centro de Málaga, Plaza del carbón. Comida muy rica, pedimos solo puntas de solomillo y gambas al pil pil, porque no nos gusta pasarnos en la cena. Servicio sin esperas, en su justo momento y precios dentro de la normalidad. Benito, un crack. Gracias por el detalle, paisano. Volveremos.

Hemos ido mi pareja y yo, y el trato ha sido 10/10, la comida estaba muy buena. Sin duda vamos a repetir ya que ha sido una experiencia muy agradable

Great Spanish tapas restaurant in Malaga! The dishes are very traditional, authentic and tasty. Same as the restaurant itself, being traditional and typically Spanish. Service is good, a bit hasty but still friendly. On the menu you'll find all the usual suspects and the wines are quite good, all Spanish. Pricing is very fair, for both the food as well as the drinks. It is very popular, so it is almost always busy, so expect to be waiting in line. It won't take long, and it's definitely worth the wait. Looking for a typical Spanish lunch or dinner? In a typical Spanish setting? Then you found the right place, highly recommended.

Our hotel was just around the corner from Casa Lola, so we passed by all the time. This tapas spot is small and pintxo-style. We had seen it recommended on TikTok and noticed there was always a line. The place is never quiet! It definitely lives up to the reputation. The food was very good, and the service was friendly. It was very fast as well. Fortunately, we didn’t have to wait for long either. IMO, it’s better both in taste and price than El Pimpi, which is just nearby.

We had to wait about 25 minutes to get dat during peak lunch rush, but it was worth the wait! We didnt even think about taking photos of the first couple of platters from the excitement of it. We had the anchovies and mussels, then la malaguita and something else I can’t quite remember those are the two things I did take photos of. Definitely would come back to try more!

We visited one of the three Casa Lola’s we saw. They all seem to serve the same dishes at the same price so I wouldn’t recommend any over the others. On a Friday afternoon we got seated right away but we did see queues the following day (Saturday). Food was nice, atmosphere too. Staff friendly and helpful. This restaurant did feel a bit more comercial than others we visited but I have no complaints at all.

Seriously the best service in Málaga!! The food was so delicious, and the service we received from Mohammed and Lafina was absolutely fantastic. We will definitely be back 😗

A super popular restaurant in the heart of Málaga. There are long lines outside, but at 6 p.m. on a Saturday we got in quickly. When we left, the line was already ten meters long. The menu is huge, so it’s worth taking a bit of time to look it over. Especially consider ordering dishes from different sections, since for example all the pintxos seemed to come with bread. All in all, a very good experience!!

Arina

It was my third time there and the service and the food were amazing all 3 times!! Special shout out to Mohammed, he is an amazing waiter that was so kind and attentive the whole time. If you come to Malaga you should definitely come here at least once. I highly recommend the octopus carpaccio, but to be honest whatever you choose you won’t be disappointed!

We didn’t wait long to be seated, and the food came out fast, which was great. Overall, the dishes were good. I recommend the ribeye steak it was really tasty. The side potatoes, however, could be improved; they were too fried and a bit overcooked. Pimientos were a solid 10/10. Patatas bravas were nothing special in my opinion basically fried potatoes with a spicy sauce. We also had the Pita Pita, which was good and served hot. The grilled loin was around a 7/10 for me. I was a bit disappointed that it came out cold; I expected the meat to be warm and freshly made. Overall, it was a good experience.

Casa Lola completely lives up to the hype! We came here based on recommendations and it did not disappoint. It serves authentic Spanish tapas with incredible energy. We tried a variety of tapas and everything was fantastic. The espetos de sardinas were a standout, perfectly grilled and full of flavor. The boquerones en vinagre were fresh and zingy, and the tortilla española was amazing. It's popular and you might have to wait for a spot, but it's 100% worth it. The service was fast despite the crowds. We'll definitely be back!

When me and my friend were in Malaga Spain, this past summer, our tour guide suggested this place. It was really good. Service was a little slow, but that’s completely normal in Spain. You definitely have to always ask for your check when in Europe. The vibe inside was really energetic and really fun. It seems like everyone was day drinking and just having a good old time. It was my friend‘s birthday so we definitely joined in the party! Everything we had was delicious! And my friend even got a few birthday shots and a complementary birthday dessert. I highly recommend!

My best friend recommended Casa Lola as his favorite tapas place in Malaga… and I am very happy he did! I loved their food. Such an overwhelming choice but everything was perfect. I also tried their vermouth and loved it. The place is super popular and during dinner time I observed a big queue of people waiting for a table, so try to get there early, luckily I didn’t have to wait at all! The service was nice, too. The prices are fair.

Bar Andaluz donde tomar un buen tapeo. Disponen de platos, raciones completas y medias raciones. Los postres fueron cortesía de la casa. Un detallazo por su parte. Lugar al que volveré con toda seguridad.

Los camareros un encanto y atentos en cada momento. La comida muy buena, recomendable la lasaña y la hamburguesa.

Muy satisfecho de la comida, atención y precios. De verdad los felicito, recomiendo y volveré. Esta lleno y me consiguieron un acogedor espacio afuera. Por eso servicio es top!

A pesar del mal olor por la alcantarilla, se pasó un buen rato. la atención muy buena de las chicas siempre atentas en todo. la comida bien resaltó las croquetas muy ricas del resto normal. rico vino blanco. precio razonable para la zona

As a chef and someone of a food critic and food lover, most of their dishes were good but for the amount of reviews they get, they can make improvements on their certain dishes. The shrimp on the crostini could improve, there are not enough shrimps to the proportions of the bread. They could add more variety of veggies to fill up the spaces between the meat this way the presentation is good too. My husband and I loved the lamb and beef wraps which had a taste of middle eastern. The ambience was very inviting .

Casa Lola has a lot of variety of tapas available. We tried various dishes and all were flavourful and the vegetables were fresh. It’s a large restaurant but always busy in the evening. We had to wait 20/25 minutes. Also, when it is busy the service is slower, recommended to try this if in Malaga.

Chaotic and super busy, this tapas spot is packed with tourists. The waiters are rushed, so don’t expect much chit-chat, but the food is worth it. We especially loved the Dona Mariquita, the prawns and the octopus with potatoes 🐙🥔. The flamenquín wasn’t really our thing. Tip: Come early to avoid the long queue!

El restaurante siempre se nota que está lleno, pero aún así el personal fue muy amable. Es bullicioso el lugar, pero nada mal. La comida estaba buena, pero no era super top de sabor.

Bogdan Hurtupan

This place is extremely crowded! Everything about this place is average. I understand this is a sort of a "traditional" restaurant, but there simply wasn't anything great about it. We had to wait in line for about 30 mins and all pinchos used what seem to be old, hardened bread.

Rafael “Rafo” Saldaña

Highly Recommended by the Front desk young lady at our hotel. Usually packed. Got a table and Javi from Sevilla is taking awesome care of us. Javi made great recommendations. Vermut and several small plates. Order from the Lola Specialties; they are truly different and delicious. However, the whole experience was ruined by two customers smoking strong foul smell Camels at a table. So Sad. I started coughing and had to leave without dessert and coffee. ☹️

Traditional tapas bar. Average food, very salty. Do NOT recommend Callos de Ronda and grilled octopus (not fresh octopus). Avoid peak hours as very crowded hence long queue but not worth it!

I ordered a glass of Sangria, a skewer of prawn and Canelon berenjena ( a grilled eggplant on a bread). The drink comes soon but the food takes ages to come. The Sangria is the expensive one I have after visited 5 cities in Spain but the taste is the worse one, like chemical drinks or from a bottle of cheap priced ready made Sangria from supermarket. Prawns is average. Eggplant is ok but the bread is very hard, I can’t totally chew it. Service: staff is quickly take order and give you the checks, very cool, no greetings. When I checked the food from the google map with the staff for my order. He told me they don’t offer it and customer may confused the store as there are 5 Casa Lola in Malaga. There’s no wonder why some high score placed here - it’s a mistake! The worst thing is when I back to hotel and translate the items on my bill, find that they count a basket of bread on my bill, I never order it and I haven’t get it. It’s very frustrating! Not recommended. Vibe? Boring.

El pero sitio en el que he estado en mi vida, para empezar llegamos y nos dieron la peor mesa que había y ya empezando con mala cara, era el día de mi cumpleaños y me lo arruinaron completamente. Fui con mi pareja, pedí una paella para comer yo sola de CARNE, ya que en la carta ponía a elegir de verduras, carne o vegetariana. Mi pareja pidió un entrecot que estaba más seco y soso que otra cosa, le dijimos el chico y nos ignoró. Cuando me llegó la paella, ya especificada que era de CARNE, me llegó de POLLO, y me dije el gerente que son de pollo no de carne, pero que me iba a hacer una a mí de carne, ya que le enseñé en las fotos del restaurante que si hacían de carne. Me tocó esperar otros 30 minutos, y me vuelve a traer la misma paella de POLLO pero con el doble de verduras. Aparte de tener que aguantar ese mal trato, tuve que soportar que dentro, cuando iba al servicio, se comentara sobre mí que era una pesada y que me comiera la puta paella, especialmente un chaval de la barra. Hasta que se dieron cuenta que estaba escuchando todo. El señor moreno calvo, un completo horror trabajando, no sabe trabajar ni tratar con la gente, es un mal educado y lo único que hace es mirar mal. No sé si se pensaban que éramos turistas pero ni aún así se debería de tratar así a las personas. Gracias por arruinar mi cena de cumpleaños, justo que quisimos parar en este sitio por su estupendas reseñas. Ni la comida ni el tratado valen la pena. Si no quieren que les amargue el momento, porfavor sigan más adelante que tendrán mejores sitios donde cenar.

Fui a almorzar el martes 22 de abril, lamentablemente viví una accidentada experiencia, y accidentes puede haberlos, pero la disculpa, la preocupación e intentar, o al menos fingirla, es esencial, entre los platos que pedí fueron unas alcachofas con jamón, bien presentado, con un pequeño corazón y hojas abiertas muy fibrosas, prácticamente incomibles, e inundadas en aceite de oliva, que el mozo se ocupó de colocar en mi pantalón, en lugar de acercarse por mi lado, pretendló levantar el plato desde el otro extremo de la mesa, el resultado los cubiertos y parte del aceite confirmaron la Ley de la Gravedad, gravedad agravada porque tras decir sólo ya lo arreglamos se retiró rapidamente, pensé traerá un quitamanchas, pero apareció con una porción de postre y dos cucharas, por supuesto que no lo comí, sólo precisaba algo para mitigar la mancha, y principalmente una disculpa, pagué a una moza, ya que el joven mozo no volvió más y me retiré de allí, mi esposa me preguntó porqué no fui a hablar con el encargado y/o propietario, le respondí porque ese era el principal responsable, por contratar mano de obra barata, por emplear gente sin experiencia, y principalmente por no capacitarlos. Es acnedótico que el pantalón no se ha logrado limpiar en la tintorería. Les he contado sólo mi pésima experiencia, para otros será buena... o nada de ellas si no van.
