Taste Buds la marquesa golf — Restaurant in Rojales

This was my first visit since they opened only a few month back. From looking at the signs outside I first got the impression that it was Italian and Mexican but it offers food from so many other places maybe a bit more Indian dishes. I sat outside and looked at the menu and it was a new waiters first day so she couldn’t really recommend other than the curry. That’s okay, I like supporting the local restaurants so it’s a start for everyone. I ordered today’s soup, tomato soup, as a starter. From the picture it’s probably always the same soup if the day😉 For main I wanted to test the Mexican section with a burrito with beef. A few minutes later a small basket with two pieces of nicely homemade and freshly baked bread arrived together with a dip. At first I thought it was aioli but I couldn’t figure it out but it wasn’t. Then after a few additional minutes my main dish arrived🧐 Where is my soup? Oh sorry the new waiter forgot to write it down we can redo the entire order if you wish. I’m not into throwing food out so of cause they shouldn’t do that and I just told them I skipped the starter. Soon after an embarrassed waiter came out and apologized. Again they offered me to redo it and we all make mistakes. So the food review….. yes of cause. Well the burrito was sorry to say a bit disappointing. The filling was dry and the beef was very tiny pieces, tender yes but all have the same texture and in this case also the same taste. “Real” Mexican restaurants have larger pieces of meat and onions, peppers etc give different textures. I would have loved a salsa sauce and that the guacamole was homemade. Chips potion was big and good amount of salt on them but the potatoes was floury. It’s a big thing to try and master so many different kitchens. Maybe I was just unlucky and should have tried another dish. I do wanna support the local restaurants and I give them an additional ⭐️ just for that but I’m not sure what kitchen they represent as the best place...

October 2025 update- Friendly helpful welcome, food selection is great we had Mexican this evening. The Burrito was excellent packed full of tasty chicken rice and beans, served with a side salad & triple cooked chips. Mum did want abig meal so she enjoyed the beef natchos, we also had a serving of onion rings. This is a great place to enjoy a meal at the end of the day overlooking the golf course as the sun goes down.####July 2025 Update- Still a favourite standards are being maintained and the food is very good. We helped celebrate the 1st anniversary this visit.###Friendly welcome & fast efficient service during my visit. Nice decor inside with some outdoor seating. The food is very tasty & filling with a variety of dishes from around the world, you can enjoy a Indian starter, Mexican main & Italian dessert if you wish. This is a good addition to the La Marquesa offering & is a new favourite of mine.##Update May 2025- Fantastic again, I really enjoyed the Bruchetta to start, then tucked into the chicken Burrito, which was stuffed with everything you wanted. I also had a serving of chips but really didn't need them as the Burrito was more than enough! Service is still of the highest standard. A...

For anyone looking for something to eat at La Marquesa this place is an absolute must! A group of seven of us came across Taste Buds more by luck than judgement but we wished we had found it sooner! Such a wide variety of food to choose from on the menu to suits everyone’s tastes. We all had something different and each us of us said how great the food was. Decent sized helpings all at a really reasonable price. A really nice, comfortable restaurant and the staff were absolutely amazing! We were made to feel so welcome and nothing was too much trouble. If it wasn’t for the fact that we were flying home a couple of days later we would have gone back but we will definitely be going back there again the next time we are in Guardamar. Would...
