El Descaro

One of many

I really like El Descaro and have eaten here many times. The food is good and is alway presented well. They offer lots of tapas and some bigger plates too. Las Costillas (Ribs) are particularly good!

Editors Comment

El Descaro is one of my favorites and I visit it regularly.

I especially enjoy the tapas which are a little bit different from the usual things you’ll find in Estepona – it’s a good place to go if you fancy a change from La Sureña.

Set on the beautiful Plaza de las Flores it’s a very pleasant place to spend time although the tables and chairs could be spaced out a little more.

Martin the head waiter is always friendly and helpful when I visit.

Recommended! ⭐️

Todo un descaro.
Raciones ridiulas de comida precocinada.
Agua a precio de cava. El pulpo ni estaba ni se le esperaba. Las albóndigas de bote del Mercadona. La carrilada al pedro Ximénez fría e insípida. El taco Mexicano podría salvarse si no se hubiera quedado entre los dientes de lo pequeño que era.
En fin…..para atracar a turistas que no repetirán. Dudo que ningun local coma aquí….

It’s not the first time here for me and Im not a tourist in Estepona…
But let’s be honest, 1 hour waiting for tapas and after that all good brought together is a mistake.

Good location. The food isn’t very good.

We were a group of four. The waiters were very disorganized. We ordered a pitcher of sangria (because they told us they had it), but they only brought us a glass, saying, “We only serve glasses here.” And that was just at the beginning…

The calamari sandwiches were industrial-quality, tasteless, and the chips were awful, looking very old. The service was very poor throughout the meal.

To top it all off, they asked us for a tip at the end, even though the service was really bad. We thought that was terrible.

The Food

The food at El Descaro is very good. It’s always well presented and tastes good too.

Prices are fairly expensive, but you are on the main square in Estepona.

  • Selection of tasty tapas
  • Varied and interesting menu
  • The ribs are delicious
  • Good wine ?

The service matches the food in quality especially Martin who always welcomes me like and old friend.

The Location

Situated on one of the best squares in Estepona El Descaro is a delightful place to spend time when the weather is fine.

They have a lot of tables in the middle of the square, probably too many in my opinion as it can feel a little squashed.

  • On one of the best squares in Estepona
  • Lots of outside tables
  • Very easy to find

Be prepared for some music too as it’s a very popular place for buskers to perform.
