Malaga
is one of Spain's most popular tourist destinations and the mind-boggling number
of restaurants and hotels in the
Costa del Sol reflect the area's popularity. We have visited the Costa del
Sol several times (although to be honest, we prefer the province of Cadiz, a little
further down the coast, which we find to be more peaceful, more beautiful and
cheaper!!) and have eaten at the restaurants listed below.

in Malaga | | | Adolfo
Pº
Maritimo Pablo Ruiz Picasso, 12, Malaga
Tel: 952 601 914 | One
of Malaga's most famous restaurants. Delicious, creative dishes made from first-class
ingredients, attentive and professional service, comfortable surroundings and
an excellent wine list are all reasons why, if you come to Malaga, you should
make room for Adolfo. Very reasonable prices - taster menu costs just 40 euros. | | | Mesón
Astorga
Gerona, 11, Malaga
Tel: 952 346 832 | A
good choice for people wanting to experience traditional Malagan cuisine at its
best and at a good price. Assets: Good quality ingredients, professional service,
excellent wine list and the possibility to order half portions. | | | El
Higuerón
Costa del Sol Motorway
exit 217
Tel: 952 119 163 | Don't
go out of your way to visit El Higuerón if you are staying/living in Malaga,
because you have plenty other options open to you. But for the many northern Europeans
who find themselves driving down the Costa del Sol Motorway, El Higueron is definitely
worth a stop. We found it almost by accident, and felt fully fed and watered after
just half an hour there. Big restaurant and long bar, food is excellent and service
is very quick. Eat at the bar for cheaper prices and quicker service if you are
breaking a journey. Lovely views of Malaga's coast | | | La
Meridiana
Camino de la Cruz s/n
Marbella-Puerto Banus
Tel:
952 776 190 | One
of the most prestigious restaurants in Marbella and, if you want to feel part
of Spain's jet set for an evening (in the Summer months), then this is the place
for you. On the other hand, there are lots of other places offering better food,
in nicer surroundings and at much lower prices. So unless you are a sticker for
half-famous Spaniards, go somewhere else. We found it overcroweded and overpriced. | | | Restaurante
Santiago
Pº Maritimo , 5
Marbella
Tel: 952 770 078 | On
the other hand, this restaurant, also one of the best known restaurants in Marbella,
visited by well known faces from Spanish social and political circles in the Summer,
is well worth a visit. Santiago is a legend in Marbella. From a "humble family",
he worked in Madrid and in London's Savoy before returning to Marbella and opening
a beach cafe in the 1950s. He opened the first Santiago Restaurant in 1973, and
since then has gone from strength to strength. Excellent food, wonderful surroundings,
professional service and ok prices. | | |
