Restaurante Perla Beach Estepona — Restaurant in Estepona

We waited about 30 minutes to be seated, which is understandable given the popularity of this place. The day before, we were told they don’t take reservations, so waiting was expected. Once seated, we noticed the menu recommends ordering at least one dish per person, but since we weren’t very hungry, we opted to share a Hawaiian pizza.

The waiter seemed surprised by our order but accepted it. The pizza was tasty but far from authentic Italian or even New York-style. The thin crust broke easily, making it difficult to cut. We also ordered a beer and a glass of wine; unfortunately, the wine had a strong alcohol taste and was served in a chipped glass.

One concerning thing we noticed was a chef smoking outside and then returning to handle the pizza without washing his hands. Despite these issues, the atmosphere and location were nice, and the pizza itself had good flavor, which slightly redeemed the experience.

However, I’m not sure why people line up for this place. I believe there are better options out there. We paid €24 for a pizza, a glass of wine, a beer, and a...

Service spot on, friendly efficient and fast. Ordered pizzas. Shame so many things on menu otherwise. Can’t comment on test if cous but it’s difficult to offer various types of food such as burgers etc when you advertise yourself as an Italian restaurant, Now! I’m sticking my neck out here but I am fairly confident this pizza base was in fact a crepe! If not a crepe very very close to one.

Don’t get me wrong ‘pizza’ was good, just only giving a 3 fir the pizza because I honestly don’t think it is one in the traditional sense and the everyone seemed to be speaking French in kitchen so just feel wasn’t the ‘Italian restaurant or indeed Italian pizza that...

Honestly, this was the best experience we had in all of Estepona. The waiters spoke different languages, were kind and attentive, and really looked out for us. The food was absolutely delicious, everything we tried was so tasty. But what we appreciated the most was how welcome they made us feel, something we rarely experienced in other restaurants around Andalucía. It’s a wonderful place with a beautiful, romantic view of the sea, and we highly recommend it. We didn’t have a reservation on a Saturday evening, but since we arrived early (around 8:15 pm, which is early for Spain), we got a table right away. After 9 pm, people did have to wait for a table, but the staff handled it really well :)

Thank you for the great...
