Marbella is much more than luxury, high-quality cars and yachts at the Sports Marina. Marbella is also gastronomy, from the most modest and traditional to the most experimental and sophisticated dish. Here the tapa is the star, bites that make you feel the heaven. We hope you come hungry!
Historic center
Walking around the center of Marbella in the evening is a true luxury. Among narrow streets and orange trees you will find lots of places where you can taste countless tapas. These bars are the favourite ones as much for local as for foreigner customers., since they keep that charm and tradition only possible when passing from parents to children. To have tapas is not only eating, but also discover the city having a walk at sunset enjoying a Mediterranean gastronomy that makes you fall in love. San Lázaro street is a reference point for tapeo: it is a tiny alley between Vistoria square and Fortaleza street, Here, four of the most authentic bars in Marbella are located: Tierraranda, Bar Bartolo, La Niña del Pisto and Bar El Estrecho.
For all budgets
High-quality products and good prices are possible in Marbella. We can taste ancient dishes like porra, fried aubergins with honey or the typical ensaladilla rusa for a very low price!
Starred tapas
Marbella is the cradle of Michelin starred restaurants. Up to 5 from the 9 awards in the province are located here. Dani García, one of most creative and with the greatest international projection Spanish chef, is the only one having two stars in his restaurant at the Milla de Oro.
Skina Restaurant also has a star. Only four months have been enough to became one of the references in the country. Other options are Restaurante El Lago, Juan José Carmona’s, and Restaurante Messina, whose distinguishing mark is the uncommon cooking of dishes, very elaborate and with a delightful taste.
