Restaurante Alingui Los Balcones — Restaurant in Torrevieja

I'll just get right to the point.. The seats are very uncomfortable.. Waiter scratches his bottom in the middle of the open floor and then touches everything and the plates... The spaghetti is microwaved, the middle was still cold and clumped together.. The waiters bring us 3 steaks, and it's all overcooked. 1 stays, but 2 are told to be wrong and still try to hand it over, told again, and the plates handed back to him.. told it's wrong, and they just nod their head and claim to understand and then bring it back so undercooked.. it'll moo at me - that kind of undercooked... don't want to send it back again because I'm sure they'll spit in it.. Kids food was devoured, so I'm sure that was good, only good thing about this visit.

It's genuinely...

We have been coming here for a few years while in the area but no more. During our last visit, the waiter (older man) was incredibly rude. We had to wait a while for the menus (which is not really a problem) and when he finally came he looked at us as if the cat dragged us in. He made it very obvious to us that we were bothering him just by being there and “threw” the menus on the table in front of us. While we tried to decide what to eat he had no patience at all and showed us he was very annoyed that we needed a few minutes to decide. We felt very rushed to decide on food. The whole visit he made it clear to us we were an annoyance to him just by being there and ordering food. It was a very unpleasant visit and we will...

I guess, the only upside about this place was the price - it is actually cheap, especially compared to the places nearby. One of those moments, when you see the menu and you know it can't be good, but stay and eat because at this point you are way too hungry.

It wasn't exactly terrible, but disappointing: tasting like semi-prepared food from a supermarket. I got tricked by good reviews, and I honestly do not understand why would someone consider the food served here "good", or the place to be one of the best in the area.

The place itself is okay - lots of space and natural light, good air conditioning, but terrible, not very comfortable seats. The staff had an okay, neutral attitude.

Definitely would...
