Lizarran — Restaurant in Orihuela

You can sit inside, as well as outside. We sat outside with a lovely view of the sea. The waiter explained the concept. You could choose one of the already prepared pinchos (bread with a topping and a skewer) on the counter. You could order from the menu, or you could sit back and relax and have the waiters come by with a tray to surprise you. Up to you if you take one of the pinchos offered (€1.80 each) or a small plate (€3,- each). And again, you could also order from the menu.

We choose a mix of those 2 options. We ordered a plate with patatas bravas/aliolio and picked some of the bites that were offered. Everything looked and tasted delicious. They waiter that offered most of the choices was great, very friendly! Some of the other staff were ok.

As a desert you could order one of the options on the menu, but they also had a great choice in fresly bajes cakes. On our day it was an Apple cake, chocolate cake and a cheese cake.

Great...

Handing out food should be the responsibility of staff wearing vinyl gloves. Disappointed to have witnessed this as it is a nice place, but hygiene should be paramount for...

After visiting in April 2019 and many times before.The quality of the food has gone down substantially. In April it was top quality meat and portions being brought out. We waited a long time for someone to bring anything out today. Yes its summer and there was plenty of cool food available but we didn't want that. When hot food did come it was crochets, fish that we had which didn't taste good and seemed to have been fried twice. Belly pork that tasted off. Steak that was like boot leather. ( To be fair the waiter didn't charge us as he could see we hadn't been able to chew it.) The beer seemed smaller too. I know it's summer but you can't afford to let standards slip. Very...
