Where to eat near Torremuelle

Our genuine favourites — the same places we recommend in person to guests at Villa VR7.

Steps from the villa

• Restaurante Lucena II — the Benalmádena Costa classic right by the villa: rice dishes and fresh fish at honest prices.
• Matilda Café — the brunch spot: good coffee, avocado toast and homemade cakes.
• Yucas Café — breakfasts and evening drinks with sea views.
• Pizzería Pompei — authentic wood-fired Italian, perfect for a no-fuss dinner.
• La Viborilla — a charming beach bar right on the sand: sardine skewers, chargrilled fish and sunsets.

Flavours from around the world

• Yin Teppan Yaki — Japanese with live griddle cooking and good sushi.
• The Indian Chef and Namaste Fusión (Fuengirola) — authentic Indian, with milder options for kids.
• Dao's Bar — a neighbourhood Thai with real, honest flavours.
• La Casita Mexicana (Fuengirola) — proper Mexican, not Tex-Mex.
• Taverna Valentino — traditional white-tablecloth Italian with fresh pasta.

For a special occasion

• Los Marinos José (Fuengirola) — seafood and fish with a Michelin star: the temple of the bay's finest produce. Book well ahead.
• Lila (Fuengirola) — refined Peruvian fusion, ceviches and pisco sours.
• La Carihuela Chica — fine seafood and Andalusian cooking by the sea.
• Asador Otola (Mijas) — a carnivore's paradise: chargrilled prime steaks.

The beach plan

For the textbook espeto de sardinas (sardine skewers grilled over an open flame), walk or take the train one stop to Carvajal: its promenade is lined with traditional beach bars like Chiringuito Oasis and Freiduría Fran, the local favourite for fried fish.
