Restaurante Topo Gigio — Restaurant in Benidorm

Sadly, a very mediocre place. The kind of place that punishes you for having the menu del dia instead of ordering from the a la carte. Fast service with the starter but slow with the main and getting the check, I think he forgot. Considering there were 3 tables full throughout the meal, it seemed strange that service was so hit and miss. The starter of Prawn cocktail with a luminous bright pink dressing was average at best. Basic at most. When we didn't want bread (which costs extra) it seemed to perturb the staff. But I didn't feel like explaining I'm gluten free. The meal of lamb chop cutlets didn't come with gratin potatoes but fries and while the fries were good, they were fries. With nothing else. A few chops, some fries, but no salad or veggies. The meal was pointless. More bone than meat on the lamb. By the end, I legit had more of the lamb in my teeth than was on the bone. So, it just felt like what was the point of the dish? It didn't showcase the menu at all. I like to go on a menu del dia for the first time and then revisit and explore the menu if the initial visit merits it. Spoiler alert: I won't be back. The dessert was a scoop of ice cream which had the faint flavor of rice pudding. Very nice but again, not awe inspiring. For 15 euros, not worth it, tbh. Harsh, maybe when everything had a decent enough taste but in this market, the menu del dia price is at the higher end. I wouldn't come again but not only for the above but because the music was uncomfortably loud. The staff were pleasant enough but service was just hit and miss and I felt like we weren't special enough. The lady outside is kind of pushy and says you could ‘maybe have lasagne or share a pizza as part of the menu del dia,’ but once they get you in it's a different...

This is one of the most unprofessional and rude restaurants I have ever had the displeasure of visiting. We walked in and waited about 10 minutes to even be asked if we needed a table. We walked out and made the mistake of coming back about 45 minutes later. This time we were greeted by a really grumpy waiter who said abruptly "there are people before you" and walked off. We waited. Eventually another bad tampered waiter walked by and rudely told us to follow him and sat us down and almost threw the menus at us. What then followed was 20 minutes of us asking for service, waiters blatantly ignoring us and being told "only my boss can serve you." The staff, and the "boss" who frankly couldn't manage a break out of a paper bag, which happened to look like the suit he was wearing was a total waste of time. We walked out and were verbally abused by on of the waiters as we did so. Reading the reviews of the poor quality food, we certainly...

Worst place ever!

Me and my friend ordered a tuna pizza but what we got was extremely greasy and not tasteful at all! I ate a slice and felt sick from all the fat.

When we told the manager we did not like the pizza because it was extremely greasy. He was very rude right away and told us that we made a wrong choice then and tuna pizza is supposed to be this fat and greasy. We told the guy that we could not finish the pizzas and he said: too bad because you still have to pay for it. Wrong choice, wrong choice!

He yelled at us in the crowded restaurant and did not have a problem solving attitude. He did not ask us what we wanted or what else he could give us instead. I have never seen a manager this rude, yelling at his customers.

I have eaten pizzas all over the world and this did not even look like a pizza let alone a pizza in a restaurant.

Do yourself a favor and don't eat at...
