Hustle n' Flow Eatery · San Pedro — Restaurant in Marbella

NEVER AGAIN… 😠 When you spend more than 20 minutes setting up a restaurant table prettily for the birthday girl to arrive and not one member of staff asks if you’d like a drink even though it’s 28 degrees and literally baking hot, you feel unseen. When you wait with your friends well over 40 minutes at the table to receive ANY food it is very frustrating. 5 of us were seated. A further lady arrived to complete our table of 6, she arrived late. Her order was placed after ours but her meal arrived first!? We felt like we were going to pass out after waiting 45 minutes for any food to arrive at the table. None of the dishes ordered were ‘complicated’ and the terrace where we were sitting was only half full. After 2.30pm the terrace cleared out and by the time our food arrived there was literally ONE table with 3 people on it, besides us on the terrace-you can’t ply me with the excuse that it was ‘a very busy day for the restaurant’! Mid week in June. Not even officially ‘high season’ yet-July/Aug.! There is no doubt at all that all the servers were working non-stop, they were all trying hard and racing around at top speed. But there needs to be MORE HUSTLE N FLOW in the kitchen for this eatery to survive! Sadly most of the 6 of us had eaten here once before and found it to be exactly the same situation-waiting forever after you place a food order! The server to our table, who was charming and helpful, was trying her best to placate us-we asked THREE times ‘Where is our food?!’ but sending the manager out to apologise, armed with a few slices of bread, olives and a small plate of cheese would have been more welcome than doing what we did-sit there forever waiting for our meal and getting increasingly irritated.

As it was, when the food DID arrive, two of the orders were wrong and went back! To see the food for the lady that ordered LAST show up FIRST was the final insult. Two women at our table received their meals at least 10 min ahead of the other four and were half way through before the others began. A very awkward shambles!!!!!!

Whilst we are grateful that the restaurant, over the phone in the run up to the day, accommodated our changing reservation number of diners and allowed us to bring non alcoholic cava and birthday cake for the birthday celebration, this doesn’t place sufficient ticks on the page to merit a very positive review.

Summary: The waiting staff are trying hard and are constantly on the move, though very few are smiling and welcoming. The food -when it actually arrives(!!!) is good. The kitchen is thoroughly understaffed AND/OR needs a heck of a rethink in terms of order prioritisation! As an aside, having to have the sliding ladies’ wc door explained in person by a passing server each time a female client approaches it is another waste of time. For heaven’s sake, paint or stencil an arrow so we understand to SLIDE the door open rather than step through it, conventionally! The number of women clogging up the busy area waiting outside the ‘locked bathroom’ to find out that to their annoyance that there actually was no one inside, was ridiculous. Streamline your systems and you will find your HUSTLE turns into far...

Honestly, I don’t even know where to start; everything was perfect!!!! I ordered food through Glovo, and I should mention that I’ve been ordering from there for a week now since I’m staying in San Pedro, quite far from the restaurant area, and my experience up until now had been a disaster. Fortunately, I came across this incredible place after thoroughly reading many reviews, and it truly did not disappoint! Quite the opposite, I highly recommend it!! From the amazing food to the packaging, it was like opening a bag of happiness when the delivery arrived!! Everything was perfectly arranged, wooden cutlery, and beautiful packaging! It arrived super quickly, as if it had just come out of the kitchen! Perfect temperature! (This is the only place I recommend paying for priority delivery, because the food arrived in 10 minutes and in excellent condition.)

We had a wrapadilla and a bohemian wrapsody with fried sweet potatoes, and honestly, it was unbeatable! I was so excited I forgot to take pictures haha. Keep up the great work, because it’s so refreshing to know that there are still places offering this level of incredible food, service, and customer attention, everything perfect!! Thank...

We came here for breakfast on a Sunday, and it turned out to be the perfect start to the day after our morning walk. My fiancée and I ordered a variety of dishes to try, and here’s our take:

The coffee was delicious—just the way it should be to start the day. The sweet potato pancakes with avocado were absolutely amazing! The chicken tortilla, on the other hand, was somewhat disappointing; it lacked flavor, and there was a bit too much liquid coming from the chicken. However, the sweet potatoes were fantastic.

Now, let me talk about the OG pancake—honestly, these were some of the best pancakes I’ve ever had in my life. I’ll definitely be coming back just to have them again because they’re simply incredible!

The interior of the place is great, the staff was extremely friendly, and the restaurant itself is quite spacious. The only downside is finding a parking spot if you’re...
