Social News NetworkJune 30, 2012After studying in Spain, this was nostalgia. Fave: queso de cabra frito. Wine selection is great. Happy hour and flamenco! Not most authentic but close enough. Downside: THEY DON'T SPLIT CHECKS.
v. v.March 18, 2010sangria is great, also enjoyed their Spanish spin on the mojito! its my first and only time here, and already know the fried goat cheese is must!! enjoyed the live flamenco as well. good place.
Tony CervantesJune 27, 2011Order an El Freson - a superb drink with a little bit of kick! Order 4 or 5 tapas and I highly recommend the Banderillas de Pescado Asado.
Amy JacksonMarch 10, 2014Try the Queso de cabra - Life changing fried goat cheese with lavender and honey (bonjour Provence!)
CheapismNovember 15, 2011Specialty drinks are $5 Mon-Sat 5-7pm and until 10pm on Sundays. Try other specials like their tapa and drink pairing for $8. Beers are $3-4.
Chad BlevinsDecember 26, 2009Eat Here! Eating at Malaga is like making a full dinner out of several exquisite appetizers. The wine selection is superb. The menu is mouth watering. Plus, FLAMENCO on Wednesday nights, 8 to 10. Read more
Lucy RamirezApril 28, 2013This evening's culinary orgasm brought to you by the fried goat cheese with honey and lavender. Holy smokes!
ShanklinFebruary 19, 2012Brunch is underwhelming for the price. I was excited to eat here because I've heard good things about the food. I'll try again some time during regular hours for sure because the staff was friendly!
Jerry BritoJuly 24, 2010Skip the sangria and the tortilla. Far from authentic (or tasty). Everything else is excellent. Get the pinchos.
Antonio Caridad HidalgoAugust 7, 2011Great atmosphere and awesome food! Get the lamb and the piquillos!!!
Fried goat-cheese balls are the BOMB! Get 'em and you will not regret it.
Jim ThornsberryOctober 3, 2011Try the sangria, it was like a rabid koala bear crapped a rainbow in my mouth!
June LApril 21, 2013Not great with reservations here. They think you won't show up and are surprised when you do with all 11 people...
Tammy GordonMarch 13, 2010Wine flights are a great deal. Loved the crawfish patties & fried avocado.

"This is a popular laid back coffee spot with a simple but stylish Scandinavian interior. The coffee is excellent and very well presented. A good selection of wines, and normally a range of baked goods"
