Idil DadanApril 17, 2016Very touristic, but delicious food and very quick service. Decoration is very authentic. I tried paella (just Lunch time they have) and the cheesecake. Paella was good, but cheesecake was amazing
Elin GunnarssonJune 11, 2017The atmosphere is nice but the food is nothing special. The drinks are nice though so I would recommend to go here after you have eaten.
Chris R (thechristophe)February 12, 2022Food was random. Limited vegetarian options, random portion sizes and needed to chase for the rest of our order.
Mavis ChenApril 29, 2019Really disappointing that it has high score, but the food quality just really bad. The restaurant is huge, and looking professional, but not aligned with the food they serve, Not recommended.
Malte L.February 23Not a fan. Seems to be one of those places tourist frequent. Deep fried food. To my mind: Money is better spent elsewhere.
- BivitriJune 25, 2017Outside lunch was amazing. The fried dish with various fish is really good, same as the shrimp mango salad (both pictured). The croquetas were not that good.
Elke Van HooghtenJuly 5, 2017Nice location and fast service. The dishes are small and quit expecive for what you get. Not what I expected.
Karen De BaetsAugust 20, 2016Autentic , nice place to visit with friends and kids. Great Tapas and drinks. The paella is top! We visited El Pimpi during la Feria the atmosphere was great!
Alexey ZiyangirovMay 1, 2018If you enjoy fish burned in tons of oil, come and don’t forget your puke bucket. The food is disgusting
FrankFebruary 22, 2019Too commercial and popular to my taste. It was good, but prefer something smaller and authentic.
Brandon BurnsApril 5, 2019Everything is terrible. The food gets a zero, and the service gets -1000 points. There are so many bad reviews on Foursquare, how it got an 8.9 is beyond me. The algorithm must be broken. ABORT!!
Lars Anders FlingtorpSeptember 3, 2017Very nice place, but the waiter was an asshole and we left before we ordered food👎
Oliver ThalmannOctober 15, 2013Bit too big and touristy for my liking. Not a tapas bar at night but restaurant portions only. No Wifi
Pieter W.February 15, 2019Very crowdy, too touristy for my taste. The food was ok; the service was fast but not friedly
Daniel MartinAugust 14, 2019Overpriced and overrated in comparison with some of the amazing places in Malaga. Tourist trap. Don’t do it
Yasemin FidanAugust 28, 2017Over rated tourist trap ! The food is mediocre . They serve pre- cooked stuff thats why their famous service is too quick. To cut the long story short ; stay away .
- Humberto RezendeMarch 3, 2019Horrible service! Seems they are simply seating on legacy and treating customers very badly! I’ll never go back to this place and won’t recommend it to anyone.
