My colleagues and I came here for dinner based on a recommendation from some locals. It's a great place to have dinner, drinks, and enjoy the views. Venue: Come for the food, stay for the ocean view and sunset. This place is in a great spot next to the beach and easy to find. You will need to park your car somewhere in town, we parked a few blocks away near the Embarcadero parking lot. The restaurant is also very clean and if you arrive right at 8pm, you don't really need a reservation. Staff: Great service, especially for our for customers that don't know how to speak Spanish. They are fluent in English and very helpful in ordering local favorites and fresh fish. Food: We loved every item we ordered and it was nice to be able to share the dishes so we can all experience each other's plates. The grilled octopus was tasty and not too smoky or salty. The croquettes weee surprisingly tasty and not fishy at all. Definitely come here if you want to have dinner with a group or want to relax and enjoy a fun meal. We came here during the week and did not need reservations, but it can get busy on weekends, so make reservations if you can. read more

If there was a button for 7 stars, I'd click it. We came here twice in 1 week and both times were incredible. The food is fresh and out of this world. They are situated right on the beach in Rota, and with them being on the second floor it gives an even better view of the beautiful sunset! Service was great, very timely and patient. From the photos you can see how picturesque the view is. Definitely recommend going during sunset. Perfect romantic spot. When I go back to Rota this will be first stop! read more

Great food and great view. The service was excellent they spoke English and the menu was in both English and Spanish. The food is made perfectly I had the pork appetizer it was sweet spicy Thai very nice blend of Thai and Spanish food. I also had the sea food rice. The view was amazing, you sit above the boardwalk facing the Atlantic. I would definitely come back. I ate there for lunch and passed by during dinner and the place was packed. read more

The views are impeccable. You are literally sitting right in front of the beach, which I could not take my eyes off of. Seems like a great place to go out on a lunch or dinner date with significant other, or friends. It was my first time going and I tried the beef stroganoff. It was just okay, nothing amazing to be honest. My husband and I ordered different foods and we still felt the same. For ambiance/scenery purposes, this is a great restaurant, however, if you are looking for delicious/flavorful food, it's not the best place. The bread & butter that is served prior to the food is absolutely delicious though. read more

Badulaque - Beef stroganoff - Spanish Near Me - Rota, California

I have always enjoyed being here especially not at peak times. The squid, the ceviche, the shrimps in garlic, the wine! The staff are always kind, and it goes a long way if you learn how to speak a little Spanish instead of walking in with your American accent, demanding that they understand you. It's a beautiful view to the ocean and quite frankly can be a quiet place to be if you come with the right time. read more

The view was great. The server was wonderful. The beer was cold. But what killed the entire meal was the food. The tuna tartar absorb too much flavor from the other ingredients which detract from the natural flavors. The worse part was the expensive main dish, The Squid. It tasted days old and was so over cooked it was like chewing on rubber. It was so bad I decided to not even try to choke down the second half and have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich back at the hotel. The presentation was wonderful but the rest, So disappointed. read more

I was hesitant to try this place since everyone I knew didn't have good things to say. When my friend decided to have her birthday dinner here, I figured this would be a great opportunity to test it out for myself. it is right in the heart of downtown rota. Enjoy your lunch or dinner with beautiful views along the beach. We were a big party of 14 but they had no problems accommodating us. The service was excellent and they were able to keep up with our group as well as another big group that was seated next to our party. Food came out in good timing which surprised a lot of us. I can only vouch for my entree and it was amazing. I ordered the salmon in a puff pastry with creamy dill sauce. A very simple dish but packed with so much flavor. The dish comes with 4 pastry puffs and it is very filling. A majority of the group was a first timer here and it looked like they all enjoyed their orders. As i was eyeing everyone's dishes, they all looked good and makes me want to return again to bring my foodie partner here. read more

This place was recommended to us and the first restaurant we tried in Rota. Very disappointed. I ordered a pork thai dish that came with an extraordinary amount of teriyaki flavored sauce. Absolutely swimming in it. My husband's steak was bland and extremely under cooked. Perhaps we hit it all n an off day, but I definitely won't go back. Too many other places to try. read more

Delicious. This classy looking place also has a great view right on the water. I went there with a friend who'd been here many times. I went out on a limb and got a fish I'd never head of. The hollandaise sauce was really good. I loved my meal. The bar selection looked great. There were plenty of top shelf liquors. The also had several types of beer and not just Cruzcampo. read more

Badulaque - Spanish Near Me - Rota, California

Came here with 12 hungry teenage boys after our soccer match. I ordered steak and fries! The food was amazing!!

A friend stationed in Rota took us to this restaurant, one of her favorites. I can see why! The dining room looks out over the expanse of Rota's white, sandy beach. Exceptional food at a great price. The sea bass, tuna, and steaks were heavenly, and the house vino tinto left nothing to be desired. This is a great place to dine and watch the sun set. read more

I just love local places. Good food. Fun atmosphere. Worth the visit if ou are in the area.

The view from this restaurant is amazing. Located near the heart of the city, the restaurant overlooks the beach and its beauty. Definitely a place to enjoy a beer or coffee. The food looked pretty and was prepared nicely, but tasted average. We tried the ox burger which was tasty but noticed a giant hair like item on top of the bun. Kind of grossed us out. The wellingtons, bucaria, calamari were all delish. If it weren't for the hair I'd probably go back. read more

THe location of this place is what makes it. The food is good too. Popular with the Americans and english speaking as well as the locals. I have been here several times now and each time has been good. read more

Great little place, with a wonderful view. We had the tuna, salmon and seaweed salad, cod, and thai pork. All delicious

nice atmosphere, creative food, the only thing i didn't like is they charged me in dollars and it was a 2% upcharge on the bill for it, after I asked the waitress why she charged me in dollars instead of euro, and she told me there was no difference, when I checked my visa it was more! Watch your bill! read more
