Fantastic setting for a restaurant. We visited with friends who frequented this place when they lived nearby. The ocean views are amazing, especially from the 2nd floor. We dined outside with 8 people total and had lovely waiter service. We were able to get drinks and walk along the beach while waiting on the rest of our party. The sommelier was a kind French lady who made us feel very welcome. We tried appetizers and main entrees, but no desserts. I loved the sakana roll and summer rolls, and my husband enjoyed his duck curry. We also had sangria and mojitos, all delicious. There is a small blue hut bathroom outside near the seating. The decor is beach eclectic and we loved getting to sit outside for sunset. The restaurant was busy, but every party was spread out so you did not feel crowded. This place feels like a hidden gem. Five stars for the incredible views and good service! read more

This place is 5 minutes from our house and we finally got to try it after almost 3 years of recommendation. We enjoyed our time here and thought the thai food was good. On the recommendation of others, we tried the salmon curry, fried rice, pad thai with chicken and the chicken satay. Our favorites were the salmon curry and the chicken satay. Both were so flavorful - the salmon was cooked to the right temperature and the curry had just the right amount of heat to it. The fried rice and pad thai tasted fine but not something we would be eager to order again. No room for dessert unfortunately. There is parking available at the restaurant but it is a small space. There is parking on the dirt main road and about a 2-5 minute walk to the restaurant. Beautiful views and nice staff. The prices here are a bit higher than most places in the area. Overall, Great place for date night, girls night, group night or whatever night you want..I recommend coming here during the golden hour to catch the lovely spanish sunset. Reservations are recommended! read more

Fancy bar and restaurant that's right by the beach. The servers are kind, willing to recommend dishes, and they're also bilingual. I loved the bird in the restaurant that kept saying "hola." Made my boyfriend and I feel welcome for sure. read more

This place is not a good value. Poor service. Had to ask 3 times about 3 dishes to be brought to the table. 30 minutes just for these dishes. Food was mediocre. Nigri withFois was the best. 11 euros for bread. read more

Delicious food: Mediterranean or Asian Fusion and full bar. Superb service! Absolutely incredible views (sunset time is gorgeous). We came for work to this part of Spain second year in a row and eating at this restaurant was a must. Hope to come again. Love it!!! read more

Wow!!!!! Who would have thought you'd find amazing Thai food off a random dirt road, on a patio, beach side? We surely didn't, but I'm here to tell you it exists! Ajedrez has it all: stunning view, fantastic atmosphere, great service and most important, amazing Thai food. This place is great for a romantic date or when you want to treat family / friends who are visiting. You can even book a private massage before the meal hour (kitchen opened at 1930). Between five of us we shared: California rolls, salmon rolls, chicken satay, spring rolls, tuna tartar, beef panang (omg), fried rice, steam rice. every.single.morsel = amazeballs We did try the sangria here: again, not our favorite. I think I'm starting to understand an article I read the other day about sangria in Spain .. and we need to venture into the tintos realm :-) Last note: this place is pricey -- most expensive meal we've had yet at 122 euro. We will be back, just not as often as we would if it was a bit less pricey. read more

I LOVE this place. The food is delicious. Best Tom Kha Gai soup I've ever had!! Green curry is so good. And they are happy to make almost anything vegetarian. Delicious mojitos! The venue is awesome, amazing decor & perfect views of the sunset. Owner & staff are very friendly & accommodating. During the fall/winter just call first to make sure they're open. In the summer, reservations are recommended. read more

Beautiful view, food was delicious, staff was polite and accommodating. Will definitely be going back!

This is a quaint place to watch the sunset before or after your dinner. They have a second floor lounge terrace with amazing views of the beach. The Asian food is delicious here. I'm in love with their fried rice. The staff is also very accommodating and can make most meals vegetarian. They have seating for small groups. They have one large table that seats about 10-12. Reservations are highly suggested during busy season. read more

We came on a windy day, Javier showed us all around and even had one of his staff take us home instead of calling a cab for us. I will 100% be coming back here. Great food and great atmosphere. read more

Really nice restaurant. The food is really good and the customer service it's awesome. They will do their best to feed you even if the kitchen is closed for siesta time. Only downside is the price, but if you don't mind that, you get great food with a great view. read more

Ate here on 25 Sep 2019. Food was amazing. Mussels, clams, and sirloin were great. Javier recommended a wine that was delicious. The scenery is phenomenal. Waves crashing on the beach, eating outside. Definitely recommend. Going back tomorrow for dinner. read more

My friends and I were on a trip to Spain and we wanted to eat somewhere good near the beach. A little research led us to Ajedrez, and we were not disappointed. There were seven in our group, and we were seated immediately. We ordered piña coladas, sangria, wine, and a variety of food, including dessert...everything was delicious! We also had someone with us celebrating their birthday, and we all received drinks on the house! Ajedrez even went so far as to provide transportation for us to get back to our lodging. Five star food and service, and I can't wait to return! read more
