Restaurants in Malaga
Eating out in Málaga is a rewarding experience. The Málaga restaurants below have been grouped into three different price categories:
Expensive (over €60)
Moderate (€40 to €60)
Cheap (up to €40)
These prices are for a three-course meal for two or its tapas equivalent, with a standard bottle of wine.
Café de Paris
The quality of this gourmet Málaga restaurant continues to grow along with its reputation; advance booking is essential. Seafood treated with an assured but delicate touch is the highlight, and there are various impressive and regularly-changed degustation menus.
El Chinitas
Handily located just off the main pedestrian street, this is a favourite Málaga restaurant for its old-style décor and classic Andalucian cuisine. Meat dishes stand out, but they also know how to treat a fish.
Clandestino
Open from lunch, this popular central Málaga restaurant offers a laid-back, inclusive atmosphere reminiscent of an artists' café. The food is inventive, confident brasserie fare with a gourmet touch.
Tintero
This beachside Málaga classic specialises, like so many around here, in fried fish dishes. But you don't order them; the waiters bring plates out of the kitchen in a constant stream. If you want it, call out and take it from them. Very loud but lots of fun.
Bar Lo Gueño
If you can't find standing room in this famous atmospheric tapas bar (it is usually cheek by jowl), you can eat in their small restaurant opposite. A fabulous selection of tapas is on hand.
La Campana
Buzzing marisquería in the centre of town where you can feast alongside local office workers on the tastiest, freshest fish and seafood nibbles, washed down with good local wines. Typical and reliable Málaga restaurant.
