Descubrí este sitio y me ha parecido increíble. - El trato y la profesionalidad de los camareros es de 10. Atentos, serviciales y amables. - El ambiente es rústico y acogedor. No tienen mesas de terraza pero tiene un interior muy amplio. - La comida esta riquísima. Las carnes muy sabrosas con una buena calidad precio. Pedí queso y estaba espectacular al igual que el jamón. También estaba muy rico el revuelto de morcilla de arroz con piñones y la chistorra. - La cerveza te la ponen helada y la de barril es Victoria. Tienen buenos vinos. De copeo suelen tener Portia. La verdad que un lugar que me ha sorprendido gratamente y 100 x 100 recomendable. Volveré.

Vamos desde hace un par de años y no nos cansamos, los camareros siempre están atentos y desde cocina sacan los platos tal y como los pides. Recomiendo probar los champiñones que están buenísimos.

Very good and friendly service. They are always available to assist guests in case they need anything. Reservations are preferred. This restaurant has a clean, rural feel. The meat cooler is visible at the entrance. A wide selection of wines. Ham and cheese sliced ​​to order. Grilled meats are beautifully cooked, with roasted potatoes served to perfection. The grill master is an exceptional professional. Highly recommended.

INCREDIBLE. We went on a recommendation and it was truly a great choice. Everything was delicious and authentic. The waiters were a rare breed these days: attentive, helpful, and charming. Something that's been lost in many "trendy" places: they change your plate up to three times to ensure you enjoy every last bit of flavor. A family-friendly place with a great atmosphere and top-notch food. And not expensive at all, €30 per person including wine, a generous meal, and dessert. We chatted for a while with Sergio, the owner… and he's fantastic. You can tell he's passionate about what he does. His father must be so proud of the legacy he's left behind. We'll be back, very soon. Because it's a place worth returning to.

A quality restaurant; you can tell they've been providing good service for many years. The young waitress was very pleasant and helpful. The food was super fast and good. The price was in line with the quality, and the wine was delicious. We'll be back :) You can also order your shoulder of pork so it's almost ready when you arrive!

The steak literally melts in your month, and so flavourful without any addition! I’d recommend the simple entrecote without any sauce. From our first visit, my hubby had one with sauce, and wasn’t satisfied, and from 2nd visit, he had the plain one, and had to agree with me :)

Wonderful dinner in a pleasant traditional ambience with my friend who lives just round the corner on Calle Pacífico. I had the jamon ibérico and the leg of lamb, both delicious. The wine was excellent and the service friendly and unfussy. I will definitely go again when I'm back later this year.

Un restaurante de los de antaño. Fuimos a comer paletillas de cordero, y la camarera nos dijo q había q reservarlas, cosa q no nos avisaron cnd la reserva telefónica. Menos mal q había de sobra. Las croquetas buenísimas, y la guarnición tmbn; quizás eche de menos más sabor en la paletilla y en las chuletitas. Habrá q volver para dar otra oportunidad para las 5 estrellas

No está mal el sitio y la comida que yo he probado está sabrosa sobre todo el entrecot muy tierno y jugoso. Los días clave es mejor reservar o lo mismo no comes. La milhoja está espectacular. De precio un pelin subido pero como en casi todos lados. Para ir de vez en cuando si lo recomiendo.

A very good restaurant. We loved it, although the prices are very high; it's not cheap at all. It's very busy, so I would recommend making a reservation, but there are days when there are free tables (not the case on weekends and holidays). We made our reservation a week in advance. Lamb is one of the restaurant's signature dishes, so I recommend calling to reserve it about three days in advance. With a bit of luck, you can get it without ordering it, but it's better to order it. All MEAT dishes include baked potatoes, although I recommend the restaurant replace the tartar sauce on the baked potatoes with aioli, as is the case in almost all restaurants. The T-bone steak ranges from 800 grams upwards, so it's quite large; I recommend sharing it. Otherwise, very good.

Restaurant specializing in grilled and oven-roasted meats. It has a small bar and a spacious dining room. High value for money. The suckling lamb shoulder is excellent. Professional service. Easy parking and wheelchair access. It's highly recommended to reserve both the table and the main course (shoulder of lamb, etc.). Vegans and those with celiac disease should refrain from ordering; please inform the establishment beforehand.

Wonderful cheese and iberico ham, deliciously cooked steaks and great Ribera reds - all with excellent service. A traditional Spanish, family-run restaurant in Malaga.

Hemos comido bien, la comida estaba rica y el producto es de calidad. Sin embargo, el servicio ha sido bastante regular y ha empañado la experiencia. Pedimos dos ensaladas y un cordero lechal, pero el cordero lo sacaron junto con los segundos, descoordinando completamente los tiempos. Además, hubo olvidos constantes: tuvimos que esperar porque se dejaron platos sin servir y uno de los segundos no llegó hasta que lo reclamamos, con bastante retraso. Lo peor fue el vino. Pedimos un Ribera de la casa sin preguntar el precio y la sorpresa llegó con la cuenta: 50€ por botella. Consideramos que un vino “de la casa” no debería tener ese precio sin avisarlo previamente. Nos pareció un aprovechamiento por parte del camarero. En resumen, buena cocina, pero el servicio y la falta de transparencia con el vino nos han dejado mal sabor de boca.

Lucía Balbuena Pacheco

La comida era de calidad y se notaba en el producto, además de que en general estaba buena de sabor. Sin embargo, los puntos de cocción no fueron los que habíamos solicitado, ya que llegaron distintos a lo pedido, lo que resultó algo decepcionante. Por otro lado, la botella de vino “de la casa” nos pareció excesivamente cara (50€). No preguntamos el precio porque confiábamos en que estaría en una franja más razonable. Además, el vino que finalmente nos sirvieron fue el segundo más caro de la carta, algo que no se nos indicó previamente. La sensación fue que se nos orientó hacia esa opción sin darnos información clara sobre el precio, lo que no nos pareció del todo correcto. También hubo un descuido con uno de los platos, que se olvidó inicialmente y llegó bastante más tarde tras comentarlo. En cuanto al servicio, aunque el trato fue aparentemente amable, echamos en falta mayor profesionalidad, transparencia y atención durante la comida. En conjunto, la experiencia tuvo aspectos positivos por la calidad del producto, pero estos detalles hicieron que no cumpliera con nuestras expectativas.

The perfect place for your Christmas lunch and to leave hungry. The €50 menu includes a croquette, a piece of black pudding, a spoonful of Russian salad, and the main course. Open bar with drinks and bread.

Very poor service. The food was good, but the waiter seemed annoyed by everything we said. We ordered fries as a side dish, and they brought us a ridiculously small plate for three adults. Then we saw that another table received a plate overflowing with fries. It was really bad, to be honest; everything bothered him.

The food takes forever, the waiter is arrogant, laughing because I asked for my meat well-done. I eat it the way I like it, not the way he wants it; I'm paying for it. What a disgusting place.
