The atmosphere is the strength of this restaurant, with beautiful seaview. The food is alright but not exceptional. The service is average at best. Had to ask for ketchup 3 times before it finally came and at that time my food was practically gone. Also found the staff unpersonal, one of them didn’t even talk back or gave a smile back. I had high hopes but it was all in all an average experience; malaga and surroundings have much more to offer!

We just had an absolute ripper of a dinner at Trocadero Benalmádena. You can really tell they’ve gone all-out with the design—it’s stylish, spot-on, and sets a brilliant atmosphere. Honestly, they’ve nailed it. The service was next-level. We had a dedicated staff member looking after just our little cluster of three tables, which meant everything was super prompt and personal. Never had to wave anyone down—everything just flowed. As for the food, it was bang-on. The steaks were sensational—cooked perfectly—and the Spanish starters were seriously impressive. Everything had that extra touch of quality. We also shared a lovely bottle of wine, and with the stunning sea view and chic bar setup, the whole experience felt really special. All up, it came to about €180, which is on the pricier side for us, but honestly, worth every cent. One of those dinners you treat yourself to every now and again—and you’re so glad you did.

Trocadero Benalmádena boasts an undeniable 'wow' factor with its incredible atmosphere and beautiful location. It's truly a place to soak in the Mediterranean vibe. The staff were friendly, but the service was exceptionally slow, even on a quiet evening. Regarding the food, the Red Tuna Tataki was okay, but I was surprised by its presentation on a bed of raw peppers and onion with hardly any of the usual soy dressing, making it quite different from typical versions. However, all other dishes were superb and delicious enough to justify the lengthy waiting time. The standout, hands down, was the lemon and white chocolate cake – an absolute must-try dessert

My girlfriends and I had a wonderful time. We ordered a variety of appetizers and one was more delicious than the other. Artichokes, octopus, goat cheese salad, croquetas, shrimp and some very nice drinks. The staff was very friendly, so we had delightful dinner.
