Ikako Moraira — Restaurant in Teulada

Owned by a Venezuelan family who are delightful to deal with.

Omar is the chap who served me. He used to work as an offshore engineer before opening this little wonder with his sister.

Moraira is packed with delightful restaurants, but few are as relaxed and quirky as this little gem.

I wanted something a bit casual as I wanted a rest from so much of the rich food moriara has to offer.

Omar suggested I try their hamburger, which I obliged. Never underestimate the flavour and joy a great hamburger can bring. This is possibly the best hamburger I've tasted. The pattie, along with the crispy bacon, compliment each other to perfection. That pattie!!! That bun!! I'm not sure how that's prepared and cooked but you know your burgers!

This was a crisp burger throughout, not greasy and not filled with any distractions.

At home I travel over 30 miles to get a quality burger! I'll be traveling 1300 Miles now.

Those little fries as well! Crisp and not oily greasy little numbers. Very fresh.

Finished off my meal with the romeo and Juliet. Rather sad as there was no Juliet with me just poor romeo. It was amazing. There was so much going on both in flavour and visually.

Well done.

I'll be back for...

After three amazing days exploring Moraira and trying out different restaurants, we finally stumbled upon this cozy gem with such beautiful decorations! The menu was super innovative, offering a delightful mix of flavors that really impressed us. The staff was incredibly friendly and excited to explain the dishes and share their recommendations, which made our dining experience even better.

My boyfriend is a huge fan of empanadas, while I couldn't decide between the smash burger, New York-style pizza, and Katsu Sando, talk about tough choices! Other customers mentioned that the restaurant changes its menu every year, so we’re definitely planning to come back to try out some new dishes.

They also whip up some fantastic cocktails. We couldn’t resist trying a couple of their desserts to cap off our lovely evening.

Everything was...
