Overall Ratings
4 based on 871 reviews
Recently renovated to very high spec, with a cool design and incredible sea views from it's upstairs bar and dining room as well as stunning new central marble bar downstairs where you can sit to eat and drink. Located on the frontline of Puerto Banus, right next to the boats, Jacks Smokehouse is a popular destination for both locals and tourists of all ages. Specialising in unique smoked meats Jacks Smokehouse is the only restaurant offering this type of classic, yet modern slow cooked meat. There is a fantastic range of homemade burgers, ribs, steaks, pizzas, chicken dishes, fresh salads and delicious desserts. All dishes are freshly made on the premises. Gluten free dishes also available. Children in particular are well-catered for with a kids menu, balloons, crayons and plenty to keep them occupied. You can book a private party upstairs with great views of the port, or sit downstairs on the sundrenched Terrace and watch the world go by!

Nice find. Lovely view of harbour and nice atmosphere inside . Medium prices and food and cocktails that we had were very tasty . We sat and relaxed for quite some time without feeling hassled . Would visit again . Lovely bean burger if you are vegetarian
2. Los Farolillos

Reviewed By Jeremy B - London, United Kingdom
My wife and I and her parents before us have been frequent visitors to this hidden-away restaurant over the years. It is a firm favourite of a mainly English clientele but on the latest evidence it is in decline. It is particularly unfortunate that when we visited the restaurant this time there was not the warm welcome we expected, which was followed by the worst steak which had been ever been served to us- tough, tasteless. As a loyal and devoted customer I did not query the bill but on the way out mentioned that the steak was disappointing, to which I received the response that everyone else liked it and that I should have raised this when I was eating the steak: as I was not looking for a discount on the bill this seemed an inappropriate response and we have reluctantly decided to remove this from the roster ahead of future trips to Marbella.
3. Taj Mahal Marbella

4.5 based on 387 reviews
Serving great authentic Indian cuisine for the past 20 years. The Best Indian Restaurant in Marbella (Malaga). We serve constantly good food and excellent service to our clients with ample parking space and reasonable prices. We are in heart of Nueva Andalucia in La Campana close to Correos ( Post Office ) 5 minuts from Puerto Banus. Now Taj Mahal Indian Restaurant under original management by Raj & Lucky.

Without doubt, have tried them all.. either eat in or take away. Friendly service and inexpensive.. It’s a locals favourite so you would definitely need to book at weekends.

Popped in here to rest my weary feet after walking round the local market. I was hungry too so ordered the Fetta Cheese Salad. The restaurant is clean, modern and the staff are so friendly and very accommodating. Although I had to wait quite a long time for my salad to arrive due to a huge group order staff brought me a delicious complimentary Mimosa and to be honest I was more than happy to sit and watch the world go by, watching the market pack up and enjoying the Sunshine so the wait was no problem at all. When my salad did land on my table I must say it was fresh, very tasty and a perfect size for lunch. Very reasonably priced and the such a bright friendly place. Would most definitely recommend this place!
5. Cafe Yanx

Reviewed By Eatthemeat - Marbella, Spain
We love Yanx and have rated it very highly in previous reviews. Unfortunately, and it is a shame, the ribs have been very dry on two occasions lately. The wings, which we love were also dry and tasteless which is rare because these marinated wings are usually outstanding. On top of that we had a soggy chicken quesadilla with not much flavour. Cannot believe this is happening in good old Yanx. We really hope that these experiences have been exceptions and that they still keep the high standard we are used to from their kitchen.

perfect evening - great food, atmospheric background music and overall service including a nice touch at the end with toffee vodkas and baileys - excellent
7. Bollywood Indian Restaurant

Reviewed By JulesVerne2312 - Newport, United Kingdom
I've eaten here a few times over the past couple of years and have never been disappointed.
My wife, who is not particularly a curry fan, enjoys this establishment.
Undoubtedly great value for money. If you've ever eaten at one of the two Indian restaurants at the port you'll appreciate bother the quality of the food and the size of the bill at Bollywood.
I have one gripe though.
We recently ate here on two occasions within the week. Appreciating that they would be busy we made a phone reservation for both evenings.
It was quite obvious that on both occasions they had made no allowance for the fact that we had made a reservation. Not a great start to our evening.
We will be returning but Bollywood, you have to realise you don't have a monopoly, Masala is just down the road!!
8. Fresh Food Cafe
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 141 reviews
The Fresh Food Cafe is a bright airy cafe serving breakfasts, sandwiches, wraps, quesadillas, toasties, oven baked jacket potatoes, salads, cakes, treats and more. To drink we serve a full range of regular coffees as well as vanilla, caramel & hazelnut in 3 sizes, a fantastic selection of fine herbal, fruit & regular teas, fappachinos, freshly squeezed juices, milkshakes (made with ice cream & milk) & fruit smoothies. We love great flavours and smiles on our customers' faces. This is why our food principles are all about simple ingredients, always freshly prepared to order.

Secd time we visited this place. Reallyyyyy worth it! Great staff and great food. Healthy options with fresh and delicious ingredients. We had the superfood salad, the peanut butter toast (de-li-cious PB), the oatmeal and the 'performance shake'! 5/5 for sure!
9. Pasta Factory

Reviewed By vista p - Marbella, Spain
I last reviewed this restaurant in the summer and I have visited it on several ocassions since. I write restaurant reviews regularily and try to reflect my experiences as accuratly as I can.
The team at the Pasta Factory never cease to surprise me!
On Saturday, I let Joaqiun, (one of the team) choose something from the menu for me. I had tried nearly everything and I could not make up my mind. So much to choose from.
Wow! He had Raul, the chef, prepare a new dish. Ravioli, stuffed with crab meat covered with prawns and an unbelieavable Limoncello sauce.
Not on the menu yet, just ask for it and they will prepare it for you, its delicious.
Looking forward to my next visit.
Thanks to Pablo, Nievo and Simon for making our visits there special.

Reviewed By npnak_2017 - Bridgend, United Kingdom
A smart restaurant, the menu didn’t have much selection. I had the seabass which was very nice.
My girlfriend had the pork which wasn’t cooked properly and bloody. The waiters weren’t interested at all, the head waiter was nice but disappeared, I physically had to take the dish to them to complain.
A fresh piece of pork was cooked to perfection. Not really wowed from this experience, we wouldn’t eat there again.
