Their website highlights the chopped tomato, the squid, the prawns and the octopus. 2025-2026 reviews: squid croissant, gazpachuelo, croquettes, boquerones, garlic prawns, baked scallops and fried fish. In March 2026 a diner warned that the scallop sauce is now spicier.
About
Small, unpretentious seafood restaurant that GastroRanking ranks no. 1 in Torremolinos. Everything made in-house, and tight prices according to customers.
Good to know
Book, because it fills up. Ask about what is not on the menu (the croquettes are on a blackboard). Dogs are allowed inside, according to one customer.
