When it comes to food, at Marbella Mountain Resorts we are very proud to have extensive knowledge on the subject. Being so involved with tourism in our city, it is crucial for us to gain first-hand knowledge of many restaurants, many very popular, others may be high-quality hidden gems. Below we present a selection of restaurants that have succulent dishes, excellent tapas and a variety of drinks:
Hacienda Patagonica was born in 2002 due to the demand of our clientele to be able to try our product, grilled meats, but in a more informal and agile way, less structured. La Cocina de Hacienda Patagonica is an agile kitchen, in view, to share with friends, family or tasting our Lunch Menus, which we launched in 2008 and continue to be a success. Grilled meat is our specialty, but in a format of portions, half portions, barbecues and sandwiches. At Hacienda Patagonica you can share or not, you can order our juicy Montaditos while the others enjoy a glass of wine or a beer. Hacienda Patagonica is a “parrilla al paso”, but with soul, professionalism and superior quality standards, a popular classic that has carved a niche for itself in local gastronomy.

Los Marinos José restaurant has magnificent rooms, as well as an extraordinary terrace. Its relaxing decoration and its proximity to the sea provide an always relaxing, comfortable and relaxed stay. This restaurant is the ideal place to eat well any day. It is also highly recommended for company meals, groups and celebrations in general.
José Sánchez and his family have run this spectacular establishment for more than thirty years. They have achieved the perfect chain because, in addition to the restaurant, they own a boat with which they go fishing every day and that is how they ensure that their fish is always fresh, since it goes directly from the sea to the kitchen.

Marabierta is a great addition for fine dining in San Pedro and a most enjoyable evening, peppered with highs and lows, but definitely one to be repeated over and over! The extensive menu has many old favourites and staples in, but includes some interesting, and innovative dishes such as the cheese croquette starter that was presented looking like toffy apples, others had the fish soup inappropriately named ‘reused’ and a goat’s cheese salad.
For mains, Beef sirloin, Lamb chops, and a Sea Bream in salt. In presentation, flavour, texture, and quantity, every single dish was faultless.

Taberna Gaspar is the best kept secret in Marbella, so if it has come this far it is because someone has whispered our name in its ear, in a low voice, so that no one else can hear it.

This tavern invites us to come in and sit down because the table is already set!

In 1998, the first Tragabuches restaurant was created in Ronda. His intention at that time was none other than to make the first KM.0 restaurant where the product takes center stage. 24 years later, we rescue that same philosophy and cook Andalusia again.

With a historical tour of well-known Spanish wines such as Marqués de Murrietas del Castillo Ygay 1925 or CVNE Imperial gran reserva 1928, also offering some more recent ones such as Alión 1991.
