Not $ – This restaurant is listed with one dollar sign and it is NOT inexpensive (unless you eat just one plate of tapas for dinner).
Noisy, cramped and pretentious – Tapas... Well they were good, but not enough to make us want to return here. Indifferent waitstaff, obnoxious manager - they must be spending a lot of money advertising with these guys, can't think how the reviewer had such a wonderful experience!
The Worst Service Ever!!! – After entering the restaurant and being told to seat ourselves, we proceeded to sit for 15 minutes without ever seeing anyone on the waitstaff. I finally went to the bar and ordered a bottle of wine. Ten minutes after that our waitress finally showed up. We told her what food we wanted and that we had ordered a bottle of wine at the bar. We didn't see her again for 20 more minutes when she brought out our food (with only two plates for four people - we never did get the other two plates we asked f... read more
Real spanish charm.. – We love the atmosphere and foot at Malaga. The closest thing in town to an authentic Spanish tapas bar. Try the shaker drinks if you aren't a wine fan. The wine classes offered several times a month are great as well.
don't think so... – I would say that I love Malaga, until last night. We had to constantly hunt down our waitress to order more drinks, the appetizer was brought out only after we asked where it was - and it was cold. Then the waitress added a 17% gratuity when it clearly states on the menu "gratuity added to parties of 6 or more - WE HAD FIVE! When I asked her to take the auto gratuity off she said "oh, you didn't want that added?" I'll probably never go back...
Malaga's tapas vs. Spain's tapas. – Me and my husband went to Spain last month and proved that Malaga has the best tapas. I'm from South America and in Malaga I can find the best wine from my country.
Great Place to Start the Evening – Malaga is a great place to start the evening and the wine list can't be beat! It seems to be a "starting place" for the younger, trendy crowd out for a night on the town, so if you don't like crowds and noise, go early. The wait staff are attentive and knowledgeable about the food and wines. If you can't decide, ask the manager to recommend a wine for you -- he's always right on target. Three or 4 appetizers will make an inexpensive dinner for two. It's a fun place for "old married couples"... read more
