Restaurante El Trillo — Restaurant in Málaga

We came back again after being here in August of this year. Again it didn't disappoint. Even though the staff were crazy busy and tired (Christmas light show in Malaga) they still had time to smile and greet and talk to us so professionally. Thank you so much Rosio spelt wrong!) Tamara and last but not least Pablo. Our meal was super, we had the croquettes again. Main courses were Lamb and Pasta, very tasty. And despite being intimidated by annoying customers who had not booked and wouldn't take no for an answer, Pablo was so gracious and friendly and professional. Thank you all so much. It was fantastic. 👏🏻👏🏻

August 2025 Returned and yet again did not disappoint. Love the interior of ElTrillo, and our experience is of very friendly staff. I had Lamb Chops and Mike had the Chicken with Pepper sauce. It was good. Pablo sang as he worked and gave us all the attention we needed. If I only had one criticism, it would be of the assortment of dessert plate. ( we choose this between two). There were four pieces of meuille feuille, 2 brownies and one crème caramel. I felt that we got a lot of what was slow to sell. Nevertheless it tasted okay, but a little bit more imagination perhaps might make it more appealing Thanks again and we hope to be back, God willing...

My good friend and I went there a few days ago and had to suffer trough some of the impolitest service we have ever encountered. The waiter couldn't be bothered to come to us.

All troughout the meal it was blatently obvious that we were seen as second class clients because we're in our mid twenties and the couple being older got first priority.

Apart form the service the pealla we ordered was alright. Not the best I've had but also not the worst. We had to pay for the bread (which we had to wait a long time for). The entree we had ordered (variation of croquettes) has just put on our table without any explanation as to the different fillings.

All in all the experience was unpleasant and that even though the restaurant isn't...

Our recent visit to the restaurant was unfortunately memorable for the wrong reasons. The service was excellent, with our waiter being exceptionally attentive and helpful. However, the food quality was a letdown. We ordered an avocado salad with mango and prawns in coral sauce and seafood paella. Regrettably, the next morning, my wife fell ill with symptoms consistent with food poisoning, including nausea and chills, which required a visit to the clinic. The doctor confirmed it was food poisoning. This incident has led us to question the freshness of the ingredients, particularly the fish and mussels, which seemed to be frozen rather than fresh. Despite the stellar service, due to the serious health issue that followed and the overall mediocre food quality, we are never...
