Woow a great experience for someone who wana try someting different then a normal casual restaurant , nice tapas., the food perfect and the staff verry friendly !

I love this restaurant. The food and service are always great. Their Christmas menu this year is amazing value for money.

Went to Malvarosa on a Wednesday night with some friends and it was a big beautiful hearty homely meal, and a very enjoyable evening. We ordered one or two small plates for each of us, shared some paella, and then went through the whole dessert menu. Food was excellent. Delicious, and cooked and plated right beside us in the small kitchen area. It was exciting to see the measured theatricalilty that goes into creating the dishes, now that they have been perfected through years of service. Among the small plates, I believe we liked them all. The aubergines were great. Chicken, fish, prawn, all were tasty. Loved the gravy on the meatballs, had to order extra bread (which was excellent as well) to soak it all up. The paella was fantastic as well. Special mention goes out to the Choco Loco (coffee with coconut rum and cream) and the Churros (comes with excellent thick chocolate sauce - with just enough bitterness) and the basque cheese cake (just the right hint of sourness). All in all a very enjoyable meal. It strikes the proper balance between being a reliable neighborhood restaurant but also a quiet special place. Recommended.

Preferimos la sucursal de George IV, el personal es amable, la comida es excelente y realmente se siente como si hubiera estado en España durante un par de horas. Tuvimos la oferta previa al teatro, tres tapas por apenas 15 cada una, que incluían ensalada mallorquina y andaluza, calamares, langostinos y alioli, chuletas de cordero y mejillones. Todo servido a la perfección y con una tapa decente. Solo un pequeño gemido, no tenían chiperones debido a un problema con el proveedor. En general, un gran lugar para comer con las reglas de Covid 19 cumplió perfectamente. Estupendo!
