10. Venta El Abuelo
Cosy,relaxing with the character of the country life in Andalusia. We serve Menu del Dia at 8 euros per person during the week. We have a full menu at weekends and serve dinner on a Friday and Saturday.

We decided to give this Venta a try as we heard it had recently reopened. We were pleasantly surprised. The outside terrace was very inviting with lots of plants and umbrellas and sails for shade. The inside was equally inviting with plenty of seating and friendly staff. We opted for the menu del dia which offered three courses for just 8 euros (no drink included) with the food being a mix of Spanish and English cuisine. There were five of us and between us we ordered 3 different starters. The gazpacho was homemade, served in a lovely mug with sides of homemade croutons and vegetables. The pasta bolognese was tasty and there were plenty of large prawns in the Tempura Prawns, served with a small side salad and garlic mayo. Three of us opted for the Estafado de Cordero (lamb stew) which was actually a tender lamb shank served with chips, fresh carrots and peas in a very tasty gravy. Our friends ordered the beef in green pepper and black bean sauce which came with egg fried rice and prawn crackers which was equally enjoyed. The apple pie dessert was also delicious - a fantastic meal enjoyed by all of us. Excellent value - let's hope they can continue at this level. They also had a really good choice of tapas you only wanted a small bite.

We love this place. There is always a welcome from Paco. Only open on Fridays, Saturdays, Sunday lunchtimes and feria days nothing much changes here. The menu is always the same which is fine and the menu is large and we have yest to eat our way through it. There is outside seating with good views of the village and countryside. On inclement days the interesting restaurant indoors never fails to please. Paco is very artistic and they have decorated the inside and outside in an interesting fashion.We go back as often as we can when we are in the village.

This bar is excellent value for both tapas and menu del dia. Friendly family atmosphere. Handily placed for the village of Yunquera, good to explore then return to the bar for refreshment.Parking can be difficult but side street behind the bar often has space available.

We visited Enara for lunch a few times whilst staying in nearby Alozaina. The staff are really friendly and the food is delicious. I'm not a coffee drinker but my husband says their coffee is lovely as well. We visited before their main restaurant menu became available so we're able to order tapas and sandwiches, all of great quality and quantity...and price!

6. Holly Rock
Reviewed By Stewart1234567
If you have had enough of Paella and Spanish food try this American restaurant for something different. The menu has everything from Nachos to Wings and even a Texas Torpedo for starters; in fact you could make a meal out of their starters alone. Or try a Cesar Salad or their salad with crispy bacon. Absolutely delicious. Hollyrock has a range of Hamburgers and Wraps and even a BLT and an all American Brownie to finish off with. Telephone 951 106 413.

This small family restaurant is good value for " menu del dia". Typical regional cooking, good choice for each course. The owner didn't speak English so good idea to have an idea of the names of meats etc in spanish, eg pollo = chicken. A challenge but good fun.

Being long time visitors to Yunquera we're always on the lookout for something better than the current crop of eateries.And having been loyal devotees of this establishment in its former guise "back in the day" it was great to see the place open again.We visited on consecutive Fridays and on both nights the place was buzzing. The service is attentive, prompt and friendly. The food doesn't disappoint either, my steak was cooked to perfection and very reasonably priced, in fact when the bill came we were all pleasantly surprised, considering what we'd had. All in all a cracking establishment, let's hope this high standard continues.Right, mini gripe time! The gents toilet.....it's medieval.....it's just a hole! My aim isn't too bad for a geezer of my age but this needs sorting, surely.

This is a very basic but good restaurant in a white village just over 30 minutes drive from Marbella. The food is fresh and served by friendly efficient staff. We shared a number of plates but the calamari and rosada were exceptionaly good. Salads are also very good.

We had hoped to visit this restaurant last year, so this year we were determined to get there. Not one for Hotel restaurants back home we were sceptical, but the menu sounded so good. Perched high up above Tolox, approximately 3 1/2 kilometres from the town it is beautiful drive up. It is a constant incline, and bendy in places but majority of the road is wide enough for safe passing.We arrive for lunch and are shown into the restaurant where we have the pick of the tables and decide on a table in the corner, near a window which was open but had insect nets so very comfortable. The restaurant is very much to my liking, very minimalist, but traditional and comfortable with big table and nice simple linen. IT was a Friday lunchtime and we had booked, but it was quiet and only two other diners came in during our time there, although some hotel residents were eating in the garden.The menu has a very agreeable ten or so dishes each for starters and main courses, it was a difficult choice. I settled for the warm goats cheese salad and my husband had the oxtail ravioli, the salad was a good size and could easily satisfied as a snack lunch, the ravioli was light and so tasty with tender oxtail and a drizzle of the gravy on top. For main, again spoilt for choice I had the comfi duck with cous cous, now this is a treat indeed, a breast of duck cooked pink and a comfi leg crispy outside, tender and pink inside; the cous cous was a triumph with the tiniest of veg in it, I have never had such lovely cous cous. MY husband chose the ox cheek, which a lot of people have never had, but you really should try it as you see it a lot on menus in Spain, having been a fan for a few years this was a choice I agonised over. It was caramelised with a beautiful rich sauce accompanied with beautifully prepared and cooked vegetables and a small jacket/roasted potato.Well we had to move onto the pudding, just a few choices, I had the pineapple mousse with coconut sorbet and crushed caramelised walnuts, which was so light a refreshing and my husband had the cheesecake, equally as good but not cheesecake as we expected, it was more like a yogurt with crushed biscuit and a fruit coulis. All this a bottle of wine, water and soft drinks for just under 100 euros of about £74 when it came in on the credit card. An absolute bargain for some of the finest fine dining I have experienced in Spain. Finally, I would add, the staff are helpful and friendly but extremely professional knowing how to serve, when to clear and giving you just the right amount of time between courses. Thank you for a wonderful experience, we will be back before we go home.

We were recommended to try this fairly new restaurant in the hills above Tolox. It cannot be denied it occupies a superb position in the hills with wonderful views but I was sorry the experience did not match up to expectations. I found the service to be quite slow and they were not particularly busy for this Sunday lunch session, and they seemed unable to bring the dishes for all six persons at the same time which we have found to be a frequent failing of restaurants in Spain. I would like to comment on the adoption here of the new trend of having the menu cards on clipboards - very trendy and it works well if the menu is changed frequently but when the clipboard arrives with grubby and well-worn pages it is slightly off-putting. Somewhere in the several pages of menu, we must have missed the line where it lists bread @ 1â¬; we didn't notice it and were surprised to find this charge on the bill. The prices were quite high enough to absorb the cost of a bread roll per person. So for those two reasons alone, I don't think I will be returning to La Lola in Tolox. Sorry, but that's the truth as I found it.
