Malavida Jaén Reviews
Un bar especial en Jaén. Destacaría que puedes elegir tapas entre más de veinte opciones en cada consumición. Muy buena cerveza, trato y servicio exquisitos. Volveré
Lugar idóneo para salir saciado en todos los sentidos .... solo con las tapas , ya comes . Mi recomendación de tapas el serranito bastante bien . . . . Pero en general todo muy bien
He ido al lugar y la he pasado de maravilla , desde que llegas el trato es inmejorable , te sientes muy a gusto , gracias a JUAN CARLOS siempre con la mejor actitud. La comida es un 10/10 el servicio igual. Lo demás es cuestión de gustos personales Lo mejor de JAEN para salir a despejar

Superándose más incluso. Enhorabuena a todo el servicio!!! Lugar de referencia en Jaén. Muy contento, muy amables.. Hoy más..... Superándose.... Momentos únicos y acogedores atendidos extraordinariamente por Juan Carlos, Mario y Luis... Hoy más, extraordinariamente bien!! 👏👏❤️
Extraordinario, Juan Carlos, Luis, Mario y Vicente un personal muy amable un "Equipo 10". Ambiente muy bueno con tapas y raciones variadas y muy bien hechas. Aconsejable siempre.
Mi experiencia en el Malavida ha sido siempre excelente, tanto en el desayuno como en la comida. Se tapea de lujo y tiene un servicio fantástico, atento y de buen trato. Absolutamente recomendable.
The food is excellent, but the best thing is definitely the service; it's a pleasure to come to places like this. The guy couldn't be more attentive and friendly. A 10 out of 10!
A group of friends and I went to run the San Antón race and, luckily, we found the perfect restaurant. From the moment we made the reservation by phone, they were fantastic and saved us a table without any problems. Dayri served us and, honestly, what a wonderful woman! She's amazing. We were a bit of a handful with our jokes (I was the most vocal) and our group chatter, but she played along perfectly, laughing with us and making the dinner absolutely perfect. It's so nice to find such professional people who are also so friendly and welcoming; she made us feel like we'd known each other forever. If she and her boyfriend Jaime (who is also fantastic) are the ones running the place, I can assure you that Malavida has a guaranteed top spot in Jaén and has won our hearts. I'll say it again: Dayri (or Isabel, as we call her 🤣) is a real ray of sunshine. Attentive, quick, and with endless patience for a group of hungry runners ready to party. She also gave us great recommendations. If you want to eat well and have even more fun, this is the place for you. We'll definitely be back next year for the race and, of course, for the restaurant!! 🏃♂️🔥
Aside from the atmosphere and the food, what I appreciate most is the service from the staff at this establishment. They make you feel comfortable with their friendly treatment, and always have a smile on their face, especially Soraya and Dairi. The waiter service was quick and the food excellent—a perfect 10!
I'd like to highlight the fact that both the dining room staff, Soraya and Jaime, and the kitchen staff, Javier and Ivanna, are very friendly, attentive, and professional. The food was delicious, and for dessert, they gave us a delicious slice of homemade cheesecake when we told them it was my birthday. ☺️ Thank you so much, everyone ❤️ We'll definitely be back!!!
GREAT 👌 restaurant located in the Boulevard area of Jaén City. Spacious, pleasant, and bright inside. It has a large outdoor terrace. It's always packed with customers of all ages, predominantly young people. Excellent service and attention, especially from Jaime and Deiri, who go out of their way for their business and are always on the lookout for its smooth running. Javier is another employee who provides exquisite service and cordiality. With every drink, they provide a free, varied menu of tapas to choose from, all of which are substantial and delicious. They also have a menu of main dishes and portions, and they also serve breakfast. Highly recommended for lunch or tapas.
We didn't know this place, and some friends brought us. We were truly surprised; the staff were excellent, the food was delicious, and the place was very comfortable. We really enjoyed it. There were 11 of us, and it's true that you have to book because it's small, but everything else more than makes up for it. Thank you so much for the wonderful service, and we will definitely return when we're back in Jaén.
My friend and I went on March 30th. We ordered two tapas with our drinks. We also added two portions: the grilled meat and the sirloin steak with Roquefort. It tasted good, and the service from both waiters was very good. The only negative aspect, I'd say, was that they didn't have any tapas with eggs. But everything else was great. We ended up paying €30 each, and we weren't even hungry. We'll be back.
Fantastic tapas, the best we've ever had, if we lived in Jaen we'd be here every night. 10/10
I lived in Jaen for about a year and Malavida (both locations) were favorite spots for me. The tapas that come with beer are unbeatable in price and quality, and the staff are incredible. Would also recommend this spot to English-speaking tourists as the owner speaks English and is super friendly. Se come muy bien a Malavida
Decent service, bit of a language barrier but muchos alcohol and tapas es bueno!
Very good place to pass the evening with friends. The waiters are polite and very fast. The snack that goes together free with the drinks is very delicious. With four five drinks you can dinner. Great !!! And of course everything at very good price 😊
Ok
Si lo que buscas son tapas abundantes este es el sitio. Por 3 euros tienes una larga lista de tapas para elegir...no se puede pedir mas por ese precio...y las raciones también muy abundantes, es el típico sitio lleno de estudiantes. El local es bonito y los camareros rápidos y amables.
La comida súper rica y una atención al cliente de 10, en mi caso nos atendió Deiri, una camarera de 10, súper amable y con mucha carisma. Volveré a repetir local, me encanta
good
Local bonito y acogedor en su interior y amplia terraza en el exterior. Y ahí termina todo. Bajonazo de calidad en los últimos tiempos: - Tapas más reducidas y sin sabor alguno - Servicio lento - Cerveza que no está fría - Lo de 2 tapas por mesa a pesar de ser ridículo se dejó de llevar hace años. Además no viene especificado. - Cocinero se equivoca al servir las salsas, siendo alérgica una de las personas de la mesa.
The service was so bad because a waiter who has grey hair was very rude and he doesn't have energy neither to take order nor to change the false oder.
The waiter, who is an old guy, serves with 0 emotions. Today, he took our order wrong, and not only did he bring the wrong order, but he started to convince us that he was right and we were wrong. Very unprofessional.
