The very helpful staff helped us translate the Catalan into Spanish and recommended child friendly dishes, served us delicious local fish, pasta, cured duck salad, bread and olives, really tasty little beers and puddings. The kids sat there for 3 hours whilst we soaked up the atmosphere and enjoyed being the only English in there. Loved it.

Every time we visit Tortosa we visit Bar Esther for lunch. This is a family run business with home made food. The Tortillas are amazing as are all the Tapas and especially the pastries. Nothing is too much trouble and Esther is always so happy to see you. Esther and all her staff are always on the go. They speak good English and always cheerful. Food is well priced, tasty and a great selection. Can't wait to visit again.

Near to Guadalest this restaurant serves one of the finest BBQ I've had in a long time. We went for the fixed meal which gave you 4 courses and was wholesome and cooked to perfection. Well worth a visit and access for disabled is easy.

I had just arrived and I didnât want to walk into town, so I have the often maligned place a try. As Perry Como played in the background , I was quickly seated and I ordered a glass of white., bread, olives and EVOO. The menu offers a starter, a main, and a dessert for 32 euros. The choices reflect the region: black rice, eel, octopus, and a number of meats. There were painfully few vegetable dishes. I ordered pulpo with black rice, eel and clams in a yellowish sauce (the wait person said it was creamy but it didnât seem so to me), and a local dessert ( a small glass of sweet liqueur, some crescent shaped sweet rolls, and some disc-shaped candies). I forgot to write down its name and I did see the same dessert later at other restaurants in town. I thought the food was good; although, I had better seafood at Marisc Medditerrani. The eel, particularly, is worth trying if you like fish. It is usually served in a sauce of some kind, thoroughly cooked and cut into pieces that still contain the small bones. Itâs very tasty. I never used a taxi when I was there; it almost seems unnecessary considering that itâs 10 minutes to the center of town. After dark, particularly, itâs a bit daunting to navigate the walk into town. This place has very nice décor, and the service I received was more than adequate.

This restaurant has great value without sacrificing the quality of foods nor service. Although it looks rather dull, the al fresco seating or climatized eating room are very cozy. Ther is always a nice 4 services menu with lots of options for less than 15 EUR. Beer from tap. Excelent service.

Great place! This is THE place for Mediterranean, and particularly, local seafood.The first thing I saw was a starter special written on a whiteboard: Two local oysters or an octopus tapas and a glass of al bariño = 3.9 euros (2.9 euros in the afternoon). The nearby delta is a smorgasbord of seafood, particularly shellfish. I has steamed mussels (7 euros) that were the best and freshest I have ever eaten (I grew up on the Chesapeake Bay). I has the aforementioned pulpo and wine, an ensalada mixta (veggies, tuna, olives, and anchovies-6 E), local eel in a spicy tomato sauce (7.5), and a very delicious flan (5). An extra glass of al bariño was only 1,80 e. This wine, among the best of the whites in Spain, is not from the area, and is usually at least 4 euros a glass. The service was quick and polite in this small, unpretentious in the middle of town. MM should be at the top of the list for seafood in this seafood town.Thank you so much for your fantastic review. It's a pleasure to be at your service. We truly appreciate your opinion and we hope you can come back soon. Yours sincerely, the Marisc Mediterrani team

Popped in without a reservation (recommend making one) and were pleasantly surprised with the quality of each course. We deliberately made different choices so we could sample more of what was on the menu. We were not disappointed. Lovely glass of rose wine and a fruity white wine (not sweet) accompanied our meal. Pumpkin soup as an appetiser, stuffed peppers and a fabulous salad for starters, a baked cod dish and iberic pork mains, all of which were beautiful. The desserts also did not disappoint. Would recommend this restaurant as one to visit when in Tortosa, particularly as the choices are slightly different to what is usually on offer at other restaurants. The menu is only in Catalan but the waiter speaks good English and is on hand to help if you need it. Oh and you can also drop in for delicious looking tapas which we only spied after paying for the meal. Excellent choice of wines by the glass (including cava :)) and they sell bottles of wine there as well. Want to go back already!

We have been in this small, but very cosy restaurant several times. The food is great, seems like a Michelin star restaurant (a Paris Bistro), but at a very reasonable price. The food is typical catalan/Mediterranean, with a normal wine, at a price from â¬25-â¬35, but if you go at midday, they have an awesome menu for â¬14, which doesnât have much to envy a meal at la carte. I fully recomen when visiting Tortosa.gracias por su consideración y gracias por motivarnos, de parte de todo el equipo de Dmiquel,
