    A genuinely terrible lunch experience and one that completely ruined our afternoon. There were 6 adults and 5 children in our group. We were seated quickly and some of the appetisers were acceptable, but everything after that was a disaster. We waited around 90 minutes for our main courses with almost no updates from staff. We constantly had to chase people just to find out what was happening, whilst continuing to order drinks during the wait. When the food finally started arriving, we were told the 3 seabream dishes we ordered would simply be replaced with “white fish”. A medium rare steak arrived completely overcooked and well done, and the lamb chops were tiny, overcooked, and had hardly any meat on them. To make things worse, 2 main courses never arrived at all. In the end, we had to leave and go elsewhere to get food. Several staff members were unhelpful and the manager was unfriendly and showed little interest in resolving the situation. The only positive was one kind English-speaking lady on the staff who helped us and managed to get some items removed from the bill. Apart from the appetisers and the kids cheeseburger, the food was shockingly poor. Between the terrible service, excessive wait time, lack of communication, and awful mains, this was one of the worst restaurant experiences we have had in a long time.

    Food was great, view was amazing, we were here twice. Perfect location by the ocean, calm and peaceful. Yonas and his colleagues gave excellent service. Kids were happy. We were a big group, and they accommodated us twice without complaint.

    Highly recommend this little place on the beach for food. Very tranquil, lovely service and amazing tasty food. Ignore bad reviews, these are people that clearly don’t have patience or understand good food!

    I just visited or tried to visit the place but staff was not nice and they did not help with a table, I’m with my husband an autistic child so could not really wait for them to put us on a proper table. Disappointed a blond woman at the entrance was rude and just walked away when I explained . Understandable thy are busy and stressed but thy did have lots of tables indoors . So I guess thy are tired today .

    Maybe I've eaten at 100 different restaurants in Spain. This is the worst of them. Our company of eight got served tiny portions of poorly cooked food that forced me to the bathroom before the last person in our group had received their food. Nothing was included in the meals (especially not flavour): my clams had no potatoes or bread (even though the menu suggested otherwise), the fried calamares (that were actually baby squids) required an explicit request and 20 minutes of waiting for aioli to accompany it. What is included in the experience is an AI-generated music and unusually high prices. A lady on the beach tried to sell us six cups of fruit for 60 euros. And I though that was today's biggest scam...

    Playa de las Verdas is a charming coastal stretch located in the vibrant town of Benalmádena along the Costa del Sol. Known for its dark sand mixed with fine pebbles and seashells, this beach offers a relaxed Mediterranean setting ideal for a peaceful day by the sea.

    Running alongside the popular promenade, the area provides easy access to a variety of waterfront dining spots, cafes, and local amenities. It is a favored choice for visitors looking to unwind near the water while remaining close to the town's lively coastal strip.
