El Barracon de las Tapas

Best tapas in Marbella. I have been coming here since 2012 and I have had just about everything from their extensive menu multiple times and everything has always been of consistent quality and exquisite. Extremely friendly staff which goes above and beyond. I especially suggest their seafood which is of the freshest and finest quality.

Wir haben uns gefreut in der Umgebung des Hotels ein Tapas Restaurant haben. Leider wird hier dem Gast keine besondere Bedeutung zugemessen. Die bestellten Tapas kommen — oder auch nicht. Mal sind sie kalt, mal warm, niemals heiss. Die Qualität ist eher schlecht.
Schade eigentlich

We had dinner here last night. Having been many times over the last few years we were looking forward to the usual huge choice of tapas and main course delight’s. Whilst the choice is still there we felt the quality wasn’t as good as previous visits.
Sharon always has the chef special chicken salad and although the home roast chicken they use was excellent the actual leaves were tired and the fruit dry.
My braised pig cheek was its usual perfect self. Meat braised for hours in a thick tomato and garlic gravy married with fresh French bread and little fried potatoes. Perfect.
The service as usual was erratic with the first two drinks being wrong then the wrong bill presented at the end but all that’s par for the course here.
It was busy with about 70\30 mix Spanish \ tourist.
Price wise its not cheap but its usually worth it.
If you do decide to visit be firm with waiters as they will try to up sell you from tapas to racion (main meal size) and try to get you to order king prawn etc.
However 50 euro will get plenty of food with a couple of drinks for two people easy.
