Bar Restaurante Casa Gómez — Restaurant in Fuengirola

First, let me thank previous reviewers as we chose this place solely on the basis of your feedback.

We took a short bus ride to this lovely town from Benalmadena on a rainy day and planned lunch here as an anchor for a day trip. Great decision!

The kitchen opens at 1pm . We were early but the friendly greeter offered that we could wait and have a drink. The menu de dia was diverse yet simple...we picked a starter, an entree and a side including drink, coffee or dessert for 13 euros each!

The selections went from salads to soups to rice.

I chose the white bean stew and my wife had the meat ball sopa...both were very basic and traditional. Tasty with fresh local ingredients.

For my main I had pork sauteed with onions and green peppers with potatoes while mi esposa enjoyed the fried hake and a green salad.

Portions were generous and the flavours were traditional and executed well. Tender!

We each finished with a coffee.

I had a beer and my wife had a glass of white wine. Total: 28 euros including alcohol.

We left stuffed and vowed to come back before we head...

Great restaurant. Lots of locals. When many restaurants are empty but this one is full at lunch time, it says a lot! We had to wait 15-20 mins, may be more. Waiting time could be better organized as it was difficult to know when it would be our turn, but hey, when it Rome....

We had excellent menu the dia for a very fair price. We enjoyed all our tapas. Days are hot in the summertime and we had a nice break and a great meal at Casa Gomez.

I recommend greatly, if you want an...

If popularity with the locals ( including being happy to queue for a table) is any test of a restaurant then Casa Gomez passes with flying colours. Open from breakfast until mid afternoon the Menu del Dia is in my view the star turn. On my last visit I chose Gazpacho, Cerdo and Flan washed down with a Victoria. All for less than 15€. The quality was outstanding and the service, despite the place being very busy, was first class. It's well worth a visit - I just hope that this review doesn't make the queue...
