    Poke Skewer - perfect snack!!!
    Alex B.

    This was an amazing find - great food, friendly service, and very reasonable prices. Nerja is a VERY touristy place and most places cater to tourists - that isn't necessarily bad, but we prefer authentic places that locals visit. Bar Dolores El Chispa is definitely that - most patrons were obviously locals, and the food was full of flavors and prepared and served to be enjoyed. The added bonus is seeing them grilling fish and roasting vegetables right outside next to the dining area - that crated a sort of an outdoor barbecue vibe. We tried a lot of dishes - fresh fish, more seafood, several veggies, pork skewer (great for kids), and a few drinks. Everything was excellent - fresh, very tasty, and seasoned just right with delicious sides.

    Having fun

    Great food, great service, great atmosphere, and great value! Of course, you also have the wonderful Costa del Sol weather.

    My favorite restaurant and tapas bar in Nerja, recommend by several locals as the best do high…read morequality food, reasonable prices and good service. All of this proved true and resulted in not one but two evenings to enable enjoying more of the menu! Thr tapas were so amazingly delicious and flavorful, sensory rich , fresh, creatively presented, savory and satisfying! The flamingo chorizo was fun and tasty, the fried eggplant and molasses was so so good! Thr goat cheese with walnuts and jam, creamy and nutty like some sort of dessert. A pitcher of Sangria was had the deck second visit after enjoying a glass the first time and the pitcher gave 4 plus glasses of tasting and fresh red wine and fruit. flavor that is a local specialty. The white sardines are so light and wonderful, not as rich as the ones in the US. The ambience is very charming, authentic and feels very local with many Spaniards dining here and the staff are all friendly, helpful and patient ! Service was overall excellent! The seating is close and intimate inside and outside a bit more open and cafe like. The facilities an bathroom are all clean and well kept despite the obvious age of the bldg. It's on a corner across from a music club called Fitzgerald's and they had Irish music for St Patrick's Day! Both dining experiences were excellent and it's the most tapas I've ever ordered and been able to eat at a single meal time ever, because it was so damn good! The food taste is Michelin level but has a neighborhood charm and locals feel to it! A must do for anyone in Nerja or traveling through Andulusia!

    This place is amazing! The food is killer. We had the sautéed artichokes with jamón. The free taps…read moreis a ridiculously delicious piece of chuleta with butter and bread. Sangria is also good. The cocinero made us a special plate of sautéed mushrooms with garlic and manazanillo and they were out of this world. Lots of locals here for the football match on the tele - a great place for a drink and food.
