La Herradura (next to the REPSOL garage) in Los Montesinos is excellent - and the evening music and flamenco shows are wonderful. Menu del dia is 12 euros, including one drink,and in the evening expect to pay around 25 euros a head including drinks. Lovely people, lots of atmosphere and tasty food. You have to book at weekends.

They also own The Little Don Carlos, behind the Hotel Laguna.

Thank you Busters Mum. Yes I HAVE eaten there and as you say, it’s authentically Spanish. I was trying to be helpful in my original post.

Maria Elena, Busters Mum and Brandyboy, I was not saying that it is not Spanish nor that it does not serve good Spanish food. The OP wanted recommendations for a traditional Spanish restaurant. No way in the world is this a traditional Spanish restaurant, it is an Irish Tavern, it says so over the door, that serves food.
There is also a very good Irish pub in Torrevieja that serves very good Spanish food, La Bodeguilla des Mullins, but it is not a traditional Spanish restaurant. Can you not see the difference?

I am not knocking any of the Don Carlos´, I´m just saying, IMHO, that it is not a traditional Spanish restaurant.

There are lots of restaurants mentioned on this topic and everyone is entitled to their own opinion of what they consider the 'best', without being told they don't get out much. :naughty:

It's a good job we don't all like the same restaurants, otherwise those ones would get much too busy!

I cannot believe that by myself asking a simple question for a restaurant recommendation can turn into conflict, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and this forum is supposed to be for people to help each other not to start a war

How about we all try and respect each other’s opinions and offer advise only if it is of any relevance to what has been asked
