Wow! Such a historic place in the heart of Málaga.

We had several courses of tapas before the main dish and dessert. Everything that I tried was exceptional!

The sea bass with white garlic sauce was the standout protein, in my opinion. But surprisingly, the best thing I tasted there were roasted carrots and hummus. It was the perfect example of taking a basic ingredient and cooking it to perfection to make it a star!

If you are ever in Málaga, you have to eat here at least once.

Simply amazing. The food is traditional and delicious. The tapas pairs so perfectly with beer and everything compliments each other. The octopus is the most tender I have ever eaten. Friendly staff, beautiful views of the ancient theatre and fort from the outside, and super efficient. A wonderful place to have dinner.

I think this is the first time I give 5 stars regarding each aspect. Have to say that everything was very good. Service is really top. They work so hard. Everyone. Food was really great, not a big portions but absolutely enough. Real value for money! Need to point also that this is so spacious place with so many corners and rooms that I was lost being here for the first time. Well done El Pimpi.

Very good finding! We celebrated my husband’s birthday here while visiting Malaga and it was the best decision ever! The food was beyond our expectations. Oh, and we totally had to come back again in our last night spent here! We had (and recommend), Maki Akami and Maki Ebi Tempura, the grilled octopus leg, mediterannean tempura and some more. Oh, and sangria is the best we’ve had so far! Thank you!

I guess 3 stars is perfect for this place.
I didn't see anything out of the ordinary, the food was good but not ground breaking and you can get the same quality in other places with much lower prices.

It's very overpriced, but I guess you pay for the experience.

The shrimps and the patatas bravas are recommended, the seasoned fish not so much.
