Recomendable 100%. Restaurante acogedor con ambiente tranquilo en puro centro de Malaga. El personal super amable y atentos con todo. ¡La comida ha sido espectacular! Es difícil encontrar sitios dónde la comida sea de muy buena calidad con un precio muy razonable y este restaurante lo es y mucho. Nos han encantado todos sus platos en este caso: Croquetas de Jamón, Buñuelos de garbanzos y espinacas, patatas bravas y albóndigas con tomate. No pongo mas estrellas porque no se puede.

Riquisimo todo, el chef hace maravillas y los camareros junior y flor son encantadores, volveremos❤️

Todo estuvo espectacular! Muy bien atendidos por todo el equipo!!!! Los platos, uno más rico que el otro. Muchos no llegaron a la foto por verse tan tentadores, no pudimos esperar! Probamos mix de tapas, langostinos pil-pil, y el cordero que estaba increíble. Muchas gracias, volveremos!!!

maravilloso restaurante en málaga. Volveremos sin ninguna duda. Buenísima calidad- precio. Sabores increíbles y ambiente y servicio inmejorable. Muchas gracias!!

Excelente experiencia en Romancero. Fede y Flor se destacan por su atención cercana, profesional y con muy buena onda. Te hacen sentir cómodo desde el primer momento y saben recomendar perfecto. La comida y el ambiente acompañan todo. Sin dudas, un lugar para volver en Málaga.

Quien dijo que no es posible comer muy bien en un lugar céntrico y muy turístico? El restaurante es muy acogedor, las personas que te atienden son súper amables. Y que decir de la comida? Un pulpo grillado que te hace suspirar. Una bindiola de cerdo que se te saltan los lagrimones. Y como colofón final una tarta de Santiago estratosférica. Un 10 de 10. A mejorar: Opción para pedirte un café.

Hoy 28 de Febrero hemos estado allí por primera vez y nos hemos sentido muy a gusto. Hemos tomado el cordero, la Brocheta de Gambón y unas croquetas de jamón. Todo muy rico, un servicio excelente y un lugar con historia. Gracias, volveremos

El más impresionante restaurante boutique de Málaga centro. La comida es magnífica, los tragos espectaculares y la atmósfera es tranquila a pesar de que está a una cuadra de la plaza de la constitución. Desde las entradas hasta los postres: la sangría, el vino de verano, los langostinos pil pil, las bravas, el entrecôte, la tarta Santiago … todo es increíble. Reservar fue muy fácil y el servicio es muy atento. Felicidades!!!

Restaurante acogedor en el corazón de Málaga. Histórica esquina para apreciar y compartir. Carta muy apetitosa. Con buena técnica y detalle. El servicio muy cálido y profesional. Muchas gracias Fede por los cócteles de aperitivo. Recomendadisimo!

I really enjoy this place. I was with a group and we had the large tastings. I enjoy the thought put into each dish, the service, presentation, explanation of the dish and if there are any special recommendation on how to enjoy. Each plate is very delicious and brings a new experience.

What a great experience we had at Beluga. Secluded and calm area close to Main Street. One of the nicest terrazas. Food and service was Michelin level. Would highly recommend if visiting Malaga.

We had a beautiful evening at Beluga. We enjoyed the tasting menu with wine pairing. Great service and fantastic flavours. Some of the wine choices (including Sherry) wouldn’t have been my usual pick, but they worked really well with the menu.

What a lovely experience, my husband booked the tasting experience for my birthday, we were attended by beautiful faces like Fernanda, Jose Manuel and Genesis. What a delicious dinner. You’ll need to go and try the 11 course meal, don’t do like us and have tapas and drinks 4 hours before dinner, make sure not to eat 5+ hours because you’ll eat, it is a tasting menu indeed but the experience, the colours, the flavours and the pairing wine will definitely make your stomach happy :) this dinner was like a trip into the sea side - we loved it

What an incredible experience! We had the full tasting menu with wine pairing. The chef is a genius at combining flavours, even very bold ones, and building layer upon layer of incredible taste. And than comes the wine pairing: yet another layer of flavour, building throughout the menu. I would highly recommend booking at Beluga if you're looking for something extraordinary and are willing to be open to a new tasting adventure!

I had the tasting menu, and it was great. First of all, the service was excellent—very nice and helpful. It's a pleasure to see people who genuinely care about what they do. I chose the big tasting menu with wine pairing, and it was a pleasant experience. There were many interesting combinations and surprising flavors. The wine selection was excellent, and the desserts at the end were delicious. I definitely recommend this place for a great dining experience!

We visited Beluga on a Saturday afternoon in January. There were two set menus to choose from (in addition to other options) and we had the smaller one together with wine pairing. The whole experience was great; food that had been prepared with great care and attention with service to match. With it’s Michelin credentials this was never going to be cheap, but in our opinion the cost was reasonable for the quality of experience

A very high standard meal at reasonable prices given the skill/ quality of the cooking . The stand out dishes are the rice dishes . These change but we had the Iberia pork with beans and the mushroom risotto. Both Superb Served al dente as they should be. The other dish which lived long in the memory was a sandwich starter which included tuna , truffle and lots of butter .Lovely attentive staff.Also in a country that produces the most olive oil this restaurant somehow has the best one.

Fine dining in downtown Málaga. We had the smaller tasting menu as at 22:00 the large menu would have taken too long for them . Food and its presentation was excellent as was the pairing wine menu

Our final restaurant, on this trip, taken from the Michelin Guide, and we were delighted with our choice. Beluga is a smart restaurant, located in a small square in delightful Malaga. We sat outside, in the shade and we're served by a delightful team: friendly, helpful, smiley and very efficient. The menu included Tasting Menus and a la carte. We went for the latter. It was quite difficult to choose as there were so many delicious-sounding, creative dishes, but eventually I went for: - Nun's Puffs: oxtall & foie - Rice dish (similar to paella): Iberian pork pluma (boneless flank) rice, with broad beans and green garlic - 2ron: nougat soufflé, rum & tiger nut milk ice cream The Nun's Puffs were crispy, filled with delicious oxtail and surrounded by a foie gras sauce. The rice dish was excellent: the rice was nicely al dente with a rich taste. The soufflé was more like a fondant, with a superbly rich runny interior. Every course was superbly cooked and presented. Very delicious. The service was impeccable and we enjoyed talking to the staff and one of the owners as they looked after us. A really excellent lunch. Thank you team Beluga!

This is an excellent Michelin star restaurant in the heart of Málaga. As it was a celebration, we opted for the large tasting menu. It was more than I should’ve ordered, but every dish was delicious. The wine pairing was perfectly executed. Although expensive, it was an amazing way to experience southern Spanish flavors in a creative manner. It was also nice to dine al fresco at a Michelin restaurant. It isn’t a pretentious atmosphere, and the service staff were all very pleasant.

On our recent visit to a Beluga, we had the pleasure of experiencing attentive and friendly staff who were quick to react to our needs. The dishes that arrived boasted great presentation, making for an appealing dining experience. The flavors were both exciting and balanced, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. Furthermore, the price of the dishes was deemed fair when compared to similar level restaurants in Malaga. Overall, our visit to this Beluga restaurant left us satisfied with the excellent service, visually appealing dishes, and delightful flavors.

Sadly just OK. For the price expected better. Had the taster and paid €50 for a flight of wine that didn't include all the dishes. Had to buy a glass of wine with our first course and some of the pairings failed. Would have loved the desert wine with the first desert but had nothing to drink whilst the glass didn't go with the bland 2nd dessert. Also informed at the beginning that one of us didn't eat pork, only to be served gelatin based petit fours. Makes me think what else it was in. Hoped for better from fellow Alicantinos. Peach dessert was impeccable btw. Needs more for this price .

Entramos a tomar algo en este local debido al sitio tan bonito con el cruce de calles. Una vez que nos sentamos miramos las reseñas y vimos que tenían una gran nota y decidimos probar que tal se cenaba. Pedimos salmorejo ( salado) a lo que se lo digo al camarero y no le gusta la crítica dejamos la mitad porqué no se podía comer al estar tan salado y escaso de huevos y jamón . Luego unas croquetas de boletus que eran de champiñones. Y finalmente pedimos una lasaña,más de 40min esperando por ella además que no era gran cosa en cuanto a sabor nada reseñable y muy poco recomendable debido a la poca calidad de los platos, tardanza y servicio deficiente.

Our Spain trip was single-handedly derailed by this restaurant. We (a party of 2) ordered their course menu, and within 36 hours we were violently ill—vomiting, fever, night chills, and diarrhea that lasted a full week in my case. The culprit? A raw oyster served during the sweltering, humid days of mid-June. It was only the second day of our Spain trip, and unsurprisingly, this was the only restaurant where we had raw seafood. We had been cautious about the risk and generally avoided seafood—until it was served as part of the course menu here at Beluga. As anyone with basic food safety knowledge knows, raw oysters in summer are a high-risk gamble due to norovirus contamination. This restaurant apparently missed that memo. That said, this isn’t a one-star review just because of the food poisoning (though that alone would warrant it). Despite its Michelin star, the food was overwhelmingly salty, and we could not taste any original ingredients. For most dishes, with the exception of their desserts and asparagus soup, sauces bulldozed any natural flavor the ingredients might’ve had. One particularly disappointing dish—rice with Spanish ham—tasted no better (and arguably worse) than a generic Chinese fried rice you could get for a tenth of the price. It was simply salty, overcooked rice topped with ham—something a 10-year-old could throw together in 20 minutes. Overall, it felt like the seasoning was used to distract from a lack of culinary depth, not to enhance the dining experience. What made our experience even worse was the poor communication from the staff. They struggled to provide even basic explanations of each dish in English, often listing ingredients without any mention of preparation or concept. For example, the first dish in our course—titled “Cream, oyster, and seaweed” (ironically where we suspect the virus came from)—was presented without context or explanation. The server couldn’t elaborate on how it was made, and eating it felt like slurping an oyster out of a salty swamp—made worse by the aggressively seasoned cream. The presentation was beautiful—but that’s where the compliments end. Much of the food seemed more focused on fulfilling the chef’s experimental fantasies than delivering a cohesive or enjoyable dining experience. It was culinary theater, minus the flavor. At the end of the day, ingredient safety should be non-negotiable—especially when raw seafood is involved. If a restaurant can’t guarantee that, then no amount of plating finesse or Michelin accolades can save it. If you experience food poisoning after dining here, I strongly recommend reporting it to the local food safety authority. It’s something we would’ve done ourselves had we not been temporary visitors. No restaurant—Michelin star or not—should be above basic health standards.

A restaurant that focuses more on artful plating than taste, quality, or refinement. Served us contaminated, bad-quality oysters that gave us norovirus. Avoid -- there are restaurants with much better food in Malaga. The majority of the dishes on the tasting menu were drenched in sauce and/or extremely oversalted, making it impossible to taste the natural flavors of the ingredients. Additionally, the waiters did not explain the courses we were presented with--merely read off their ingredients from the menu, giving no attention to cooking method or intentionality behind each dish. Most concerning is that my party of 2 got violent norovirus after dining at Beluga. We suspect it was from the oysters in one of the tasting menu's early courses, as this was the only raw shellfish we had on our trip. 36 hours after dining at this restaurant, we woke up with nausea, stomach cramps, and diarrhea. We have been sick for more than 5 days and this has utterly ruined our vacation. The restaurant's careless handling of food is unacceptable for any restaurant, let alone a Michelin guided one that charges 110 euros/pp. Until the team reexamines their service standards and culinary philosophy I would not recommend coming.
