Ritas Resto Bar — Restaurant in Málaga

The food was ok, but the service was terrible. Located in La Merced, lunch on the terrace is great for people watching. However the food was edible and the service was even worse.

We ordered two of the menú del día.

The tomato and avocado timbale was the best dish we had. In addition to the title ingredients there was also a chimichurri-like sauce with them.

The spinach croquettes were average - nothing special about them.

The problems arose for the second course - we waited for over an hour after the first course was served - and we had to call to waiter over. Sergio seemed surprised that we didn’t have our food. We were equally surprised since the order is taken electronically. At this point the table behind us was ready to leave and they arrived about 10 minutes after us.

The second course was below average. The steak tips were overcooked and tough and lacked flavor. The chicken wok with rice was also subpar. The rice was mushy and overcooked, and the chicken also lacked flavor.

Again we had to wait 30+ minutes after we completed the second course for the dessert to arrive.

We should have left earlier and paid. The yogurt with strawberries was unimaginative and consisted of yogurt with literally three strawberry slices. The ice cream had a slight flavor of mandarins but was also stringy.

Overall, we spent 2 hours for a lunch that was entirely forgettable while being ignored...

Quite confused how this place has so many 5 stars when truly this was the worst food I’d eaten in Spain. We arrived to be greeted by a man who provided us with a menu, we looked and decided to get some food and drinks. We sat outside as you do in Spain and there were a few heaters around as it was quite late and cold. We ordered our drinks initially which took ages to come. A table that arrived much later than us got their drinks first. We ordered a few starters which came quickly and I will say the oxtail croquettes were okay. However my main, the Thai chicken was the most blandest thing I’ve ever eaten in my life. There was no flavour to it whatsoever and after adding an immense amount of salt, it still was bland. I was truly fooled by how it looks but it was very watery and very tasteless which is strange for a Thai dish as Thai food is known for its flavour, but this was bad. There was no one around or a waiter to call for help and when I eventually told the waitress the food was bad she laughed. We did end up getting the food taken off the bill which I guess was great but I would definitely not return. The 2 stars were for the cocktails as...

On our way to Malaga FC game. We decided to stop here after reading some reviews.

Had a table on the patio where we had a great view of the greeter picking his teeth, picking nose and cleaning his ears. As well calling passerbys names when trying to usher them into the restaurant from the street. Maybe he was having a bad day but the erratic behaviour made us feel quite uncomfortable.

Food was bland but salty? Didn’t taste like anything you’d feel good about eating. Kind of like a slightly above tier Taco Bell.

When the bill was due the server neglected to present an itemized bill until I requested it.

Weird atmosphere, bad food, bad sangria.

Not sure how this place gets good reviews. Convinced they could be fake?

Consider this a heads up for a...
