Da Carlo Pizzeria Trattoria con Arte — Restaurant in Málaga

Average pasta, average sangria. Overall it was alright, close to my hostel but check out other restaurants around before you go to this one. I really wanted to go to "Madame Suzanne" but it was closed unfortunately. But the following story is important: BEWARE OF THE BALD WAITER. My total for pasta in tomato sauce (11.50 euros) and a glass of sangria, was 16.5 euros. A bald guy, who seemed friendly, was my waiter. When I had to pay, he added 2 euros extra to my bill, snatched my debit card from my hand and tapped it to the machine (pretty much tried to steal 2 euros from me). Since my debit card had a "tap and pay" limit, the payment didn't go through. After that he put in the correct amount (which was 16.5 euros) and then I entered the pin to authorize the payment.

In short, we had a really bad experience with not all dishes hot and...

I would highly recommend going to Da Carlo to really taste something special. I have eaten seafood platters all over the world but the favours and how every piece was perfectly cooked really blown me and my partner away. The sauce was a mixture of flavours that come together and explode on the top of your tongue, almost like magic. Everything was fresh and delicious you will not be disappointed. The shared platter is worth every pennie, I have eaten in the highest of restaurants and no one done a platter like that.

I give a massive round of applause to the cheff I will return before I get on my plane back home. Thank you to all of the staff that went...
