Great desserts! – I have yet to go to the new 2nd street location, but am going this week. I enjoy the service as it has always been spot on. The desserts are my favorite and I have to say that I like all of them. The prices though, are way above tapa prices in Barcelona. They should be priced lower because the purpose is to have many appetizers, not just a couple. Still, it is a great place. Responding to Klua's post on 7/14/08. YOU were rude, not the restaurant. Restaurant's are places of businesses. Businesses are expecte... read more
Excellent Tapas – Just tried the new location on 4th and I didn't think it could be better than the old location... but it is! The wine selection was great as usual and the food even better. We had the Quail Legs and the Portobello and the Lomo. All were excellent. The atmosphere was a fun and exciting (but a little loud for me) since the place was packed on a Friday night. I think we had a new server, she could have know the wine list a little better. But, we were having so much fun we hardly noticed!
WOW! WHAT SERVICE – I have yet to visit the new location, My date and I finally checked it out on Sat night. We started out at the bar bc it was packed. The bartender , Mike I believe, turned us on to an amazing martini called Mona vie. It was delicious and he was very friendly and funny. We then went on to our table were WE were served by a charming young man named micah, he was very knowledgable and anticipated all our needs. Great service!!.
I found my new favorite brunch spot – So we hadn't been to the new location in about a month and decided to get our Malaga fix this past Sunday afternoon. To our surprise they had just started a new brunch menu. In short, it was amazing. It was my husband, 2 friends and myself. We all ordered different items off of the brunch menu and as usual Malaga did not disappoint. To top it all off they have Mimosa's and 4 different Sangrias for $1.00!!! That's right one dollar. I think I just found my new favorite brunch spot and can'... read more
Malagas I + II – Malaga I (old location): Nearly everything about this place is perfect so it is easier to get the only "con" out of the way. The food selection is somewhat limited, or should I say, not as adventurous as I've had in Spain, Boston (Dali restaurant in Cambridge), or even Raleigh (Red Room Tapas). What was ordered (portabello mushroom, scallops, asparagus, and some type of tortilla pie) was hit or miss. The rest was excellent, from being seated immediately and accomodating our late arrival, to the wine selectio... read more
Better than Spain – I just read through the reviews for this restaurant and was shocked that anyone could have had a bad experience at Malaga! I've been going there for years with friends, family, dates, you name it. Every time it's been a perfect, unforgettable, delectable experience for all. From the moment you walk in you feel that you've left Austin (or the US for that matter) and entered romantic old-world Spain. The ambiance, the music, the lighting, the smells all enchant your senses. The hostesses and waitstaff only ... read more
We've never been treated so poorly. You get better service at MacDonald's. – RUDE, RUDE, RUDE! I have been going to the Malaga for the past three years and have very much enjoyed it. I was eager to bring friends of mine one recent evening. However, that evening ruined it for me. My friends and I came in and were shown a table. As simple as that. When we said we were not going to order food, the waitress became visibly annoyed and left. A minute later, the host (the same that gave us the table) told us we had to wait at the f... read more
This place gave me PTSD! – This was the worse restaurant experience I have ever had in my 25 years of living (I know that?s young but I'm old enough to know how a good, paying customer should be treated). Beware of Adam (the host) this man quite literally has never had any social training. My girls and I were trying to have a girls night out and we loved the look of this place but you can forget about the service! Bad bad bad! There are so many places in Austin where you can have a great time, this is not one of them. Please... read more
Tasty Tapas The Tapas here are excellent! Everything I tried was amazing, especially the beef tenderloin. The people I went with loved the lamb (I'm personally not a lamb fan) and I loved everything we ordered with goat cheese!
