Banana Kitchen — Restaurant in Mijas

BK is a boutique type of café-restaurant, set in a lovely patio, where a peaceful atmosphere may generally be enjoyed. I have visited many times over the last three years or so, either for brunch, lunch, or afternoon coffee and cake. I met the owner-manager when she started the business, and she has always shown herself to be a charming lady with a distinct flair for dealing with a multi-cultural clientele. She has shown to be hardworking in supervising all aspects of the business, with special dedication to each and every dish on the menu. It has been a pity, therefore, to have had an experience tarnishing such pleasant and unusually tranquil place for a get-together while enjoying their gastro delights. From my viewpoint, a high quality service must always prioritise respect and discretion by the waiting employees toward clients, no matter how amicable the verbal exchange might be on the surface, no matter what affinities might arise. It is not acceptable for an uninvited waiter/waitress to sit at a table for "a smoking break".

She used the Toilets on site, the Slightly older Lady Waitress in Blue with the Dark Hair was in the ladies at the same time. She came out of the cubicle and walked outside without Washing her Hands. For someone who works in the Food & Drinks industry it absolutely disgusting. As this Woman is Handling Plates, Cups Glasses etc let’s just hope she uses tongs for touching FOOD. It made us cringe to think about she had touched and handled our Glass Beakers with Coffee in that we put up to our Mouths, we teach our kids basic Hygiene, Wash your Hand after using the Toilet, so when fully grown adults don’t do it, what chance do we have to control and contain...

Awesome place with super cute and charming set up in a courtyard patio. Great vibes and food.

Staff was welcoming, kind and attentive. Their food is good. Their hummus is so so so good. It’s spicy and it’s very rare to find spicy food in Spain.

Their coffee is great. Their plates are huge so keep that in mind when you order. The presentation was great. Their egg Benedict had good flavor but I didn’t like the way the made their scramble eggs. They were too light, a bit runny and not much flavor as it seems they put too much milk in them.

Great variety of options and I will for sure return. Also, for the quality and the amount you get, their...
