I really enjoyed the food; there was a great selection of tapas on the pre-theatre menu. The service was a bit slow, but we had plenty of time, so it wasn’t a problem. The waiter was very attentive and friendly, but there was only one server for all the tables. Overall, it was good value for money, as we weren't charged the full pre-theatre price since we didn't have dessert or coffee. I will definitely be back!

This small restaurant is very welcoming, offering fresh and delicious food with great service. The only downside was the lack of towels or a working hand dryer in the men's restroom, but I would gladly return!

More information

The kitchen at Malaga Tapas often highlights a rotating regional special—one week you might see Andalucían-style seafood, another a Catalan-inspired tapa—paired with small-batch house mermeladas made in-house or sourced from Spanish suppliers to give desserts and cheese boards a distinct, local-meets-authentic twist.
