Reviews for Restaurante Varadero Marbella
Review highlights
Based on 708 reviewsRestaurante Varadero Marbella is frequently highlighted for its prime beachfront location along Playa la Bajadilla, offering scenic sea views and a pleasant atmosphere. The restaurant is known for reasonably priced seafood dishes, particularly grilled fish such as sardines and Lubina, which receive consistent praise. Service is generally described as friendly and efficient, although some language barriers have been noted. While the food quality is considered good, reviewers often mention it as solid but not exceptional, with occasional variability in seasoning or preparation. The venue appeals especially to those seeking a relaxed dining experience by the sea, balancing quality, price, and ambiance effectively.
Nice place, next to the beach on the boardwalk. Reasonably good service and prices also not on the expensive side although looking at the menu there are some high priced items. I had the sword fish which has the potential to be dry… and it was…not bad but not great. But I’d say for the price and service and quality this is a good choice.
Great and quick service, amazing food, especially the Lubina fish, fair prices, by the sea and great view and breeze, strongly recommend!
Quiet for a Saturday dinner. Review wasn’t great but we’ve tried it anyway. If you are in for fish, it is a good place! We have great service, though they aren’t well versed with English but they did try. Grilled Sardine on open fire is a must! It has tainted grilled smoked flavour to it. The clams is a bit salty but if you pair with bread it’s perfect.
Very nice sophisticated boulevard with many restaurants and hotels. Many of them are not cheap but the view over the sea and passing people is just fantastic. Strongly recommend for those whose wallet is not empty and can spend € 3 for a nice, cool drink. In fact, it is very cheap, compared to Venice, Paris and Amsterdam. And the views are at least as beautiful. The weather is 320 days/year very nice.
A typical beach Restaurant with good but not best food. I suggest to have the grilled fish or sardines. The fish soup is also good but again, not the best you'll get. They also offer tapas.
A good sea food restaurant that had been recommended by my host. We ordered three different fishes, desserts , soda wine, tonic water, coffee. The sum is approximately 50 euro. This is a typical local restaurant, old-fashion. We love all the food we had, delicious, juicy. After all, my host will never let us down.
A Gem by the Beach – One of Our Favorites in Marbella We’ve visited this small, local restaurant several times, and it’s always a wonderful experience. The food is simple yet incredibly tasty – every dish feels prepared with care and a love for the ingredients. The staff are always friendly, attentive, and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. It’s also a perfect spot for families with children. Since the restaurant is located right by the beach, kids can run out and play between courses, making the meal both relaxing and enjoyable for everyone. Special dietary needs are no problem at all – the staff are attentive and happy to adapt to your preferences. A genuine, warm, and flavorful experience that we warmly recommend to anyone wanting to enjoy truly delicious food and a lovely seaside atmosphere.
Friendly, been going years, lovely welcome by Pepe and staff .. Reasonable prices, accommodating and lovely food.
