There is plenty of restaurant choice in Torremolinos.
For a good price/quality relationship on tapas, head for Calle Quintana
Rosado in the old part of town where bars like Mi
Carro and Casa Pacos serve tapas
like "boquerones en vinagre" (fresh anchovies in
oil and vinegar) and slices of tortilla with bread for just 1 EUR.
For a more substantial meal, the Restaurante Nuevo Lanjarón
on nearby Calle Europa is kitchen table informal and serves basic
local fare.
A more upmarket choice, although equally popular with locals,
is Mesón Galego Antoxo (95 238 45 33) at Calle Hoyo 5 which
specialises in Galician cuisine and is fronted by a cosy dark wood
bar.
Fussy families may prefer La Boveda, halfway between the
beach and town on Cuesta del Tajo 22 (95 237 7355. This 14th century
former mill still has original barrel vault roof, stone floor and
woodwork and has a vast choice including duck and orange, curry,
seafood and grilled meats with main courses starting at 7.20 EUR.
For good value seafood, including "fritura malagueña"
(fried fish), the regional speciality, La Carihuela has the
best restaurant choice and a bustling Spanish atmosphere. Sit on
a bar stool with sand between your toes at chirinquito Antonio
Jaime, on Playa Miguel which dishes up superb tapas, like "gambas
pil-pil" (prawns in chilli sauce). Nearby, Restaurante
El Roqueo, Calle Carmen 35 is owned by a former fisherman
and a favourite for locals with a 3-course menú del día costing
just 5.50 EUR.
