Arco Tapas Bar is a very cozy and charming tapas restaurant located in the Old Town historical…read morecenter of Marbella, Spain. The owner, Anita, was so friendly and invited us to sit wherever we preferred. My husband, sister and I chose a table in the back room next to the fireplace since it was a chilly night in January. We were dehydrated from drinking wine all day during our wine tour in Ronda so we immediately ordered several bottles of water and soda to accompany our wine. I was dreading the bill after ordering so many beverages, but prices were very reasonable and this was one of our cheapest meals in Marbella! The menu at Arco Tapas Bar consists of a variety of hot and cold tapas and small plates. The Iberian ham, fresh buffalo mozzarella, sliders, and goat cheese salad were some of our favorite dishes. We later found out that Anita's husband is the chef. Anita's husband is from Italy so you will notice some Italian influences on the menu. This was the perfect spot to relax with friends and enjoy some great wine and tapas. Would highly recommend this spot. Unfortunately, they are not open for lunch or we would have returned the next day!

One of my favorite meals in Marbella was our dinner at The Orange Tree. The friendly owners, Frank…read moreand Irene, warmly welcomed us into their restaurant and made us feel like family. Shortly after we ordered a bottle of wine for the table, Irene brought us the most incredible homemade bread that was accompanied with olive tapenade, whipped butter, and pickled garlic cloves. I could have ate the bread all night, but I finally had to push it aside so I could save room for my dinner! The Orange Tree offers a two-course and three-course early bird menu. Since the early bird menu was so reasonably priced I decided on the three-course menu since it was only a few dollars higher than the two-course menu. (Calories don't count when you are on vacation, right?) For my appetizer I ordered the Thai-style Mussels served in a green curry and lemongrass broth, for my entree I ordered the Duck Confit with mashed potatoes and red cabbage, and for my dessert I ordered the Pear Tarte Tartin. Please note that the menu does change frequently to incorporate seasonal ingredients. The mussel appetizer is amazing and I highly recommend ordering this dish. The broth is so fragrant and each bite was an explosion of different flavors. I stole a few bites of my husband's scallops and pork belly appetizer and it was fantastic! The duck confit was delicious, but I was too full and couldn't finish it. I tried to cancel my dessert, but Frank insisted there is always room for dessert so somehow I managed to polish off a pear tarte with vanilla ice cream. Originally we had planned to turn in early since we had a 6:00 am flight the following morning, but our dinner was leisurely spread over a three hour period. Everything is made from scratch so expect food to come out of the kitchen at a slower pace. We didn't mind at the time since we were enjoying our meal and chatting with Frank.

From the way staff greeted a number of the guests, I assume it is very popular with locals. The only thing on the menu, along with the sides, is fish so you have to want seafood! It is so fresh and you can see it all inside. On one side of the menu, they have the listed per piece, and on the other side, it was done per kg. Prices seemed incredibly reasonable. Many you also have a choice of grilled or fried. There were three of us and between us we had the swordfish, grouper, and squid. All grilled and all delicious. We also started with the pepper salad which was great. We enjoyed our experience here and would highly recommend.

This review will be shorter than most because there is not a lot you can say about hamburgers other…read morethan this was one of the best I have had in quite a while! Who would think that one would find an outrageous burger joint in Spain? I would not have known New Burger even existed had I not peered down an alley next to another restaurant while strolling down the street, but then I saw their sign. The young man at the counter, the owner's son, spoke excellent English and was very helpful. He even bought me a beer! Beside hamburgers, they have a range of items including bocadillos (sandwiches on a baguette - €3 to €5.80), "normal" sandwiches (e.g. club, tuna), salads, combo plates, crepes, and more. I ordered the "Doble" (double cheese burger - €6) with bacon (€0.50 extra), an order of patatas fritas (French fries - €1.80), and a glass of San Miguel beer (€1.20). With my beer, I received a complimentary plateful of wonderful green olives as is the tradition here in Spain ... tapas ... Ole! The fries came out first, thin, hot and crispy, just the way I like them. The burger arrived five minutes later with two beef patties, cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and some of the best bacon I have eaten. Not your garden variety store-bought bacon, but slices of fresh bacon lightly browned and tender with little fat. All of that on a fresh bun, not the hamburger variety we are used to in the States, but more the consistency of a soft baguette. Where most burgers this size and juicy would fall apart half-way through, this bun held the contents together nicely until the last bite. I was a little sad after taking the last bite, it was that good. All tables are outdoors, several under a covered patio next to the kitchen and many more scattered around the large terrace. There were several tables available when I arrived around 8:45pm, but less than 30 minutes later the place was packed - on a Monday night! The only complaint I have was that the size of the order of fries was a bit small at nearly $2 a pop, but otherwise I was a very happy camper, paying less than €11 for an incredible meal. Inexpensive meal options are a rare commodity in Marbella, so New Burger was literally a breath of fresh air and an option you should not miss if in the neighborhood.

It was a fun experience! The tasting menu was exceptional as expected. However, what truly stole the show for me were the wine pairings that accompanied each dish.
