The Foodie Guide To Costa del Sol

Sitting on a terrace, sipping sangria, and tasting the exquisite delicacies served as the sun dips low in the horizon… it's everything anyone could ever ask for. Many people move to Costa del Sol every year to enjoy exactly that brand of luxury. Living in a luxury home isn't complete without knowing where to go for the best chow in town.

Malaga's province is known as Andalusia's culinary capital, with a whopping six Michelin-star restaurants. Here's a list of some of the best places to check out when you're looking to sit down and cool off after a long day of dozing in the sun.

Skina
Located in Marbella's old town, Skina has received two Michelin stars. They serve traditional Andalusian and Mediterranean cuisine with thoughtful wine pairings. The chef creates a tasting menu, so you don't have to worry about choosing your meal. Just remember to book your table well in advance because the restaurant doesn't have many tables, although they do have more in the summer months when they open up seating in the alleys and terraces around the place.

Bardal
Bardal is in Ronda, a nearby town, and relies on locally-grown produce and traditional cooking techniques to make unforgettable flavor combinations.

Jose Carlos Garcia
Right in the heart of Muello Uno, the center of Malaga Port, this intimate restaurant only has a few tables so that all of its patrons receive the same VIP experience. The chefs fuse new and old techniques to create dishes with bold flavors behind glass walls so that diners can be part of the cooking in real-time.

El Ancla
In San Pedro Alcantara, you can find one of the most well-known restaurants on the Costa del Sol. They serve delicious fish and seafood with fantastic champagne. Despite their notoriety for seafood, many locals prefer their fried eggs, an enduring classic. Every meal is served right on the water with lovely views.

Sollo Restaurante
The chef at this Fuengirola restaurant is known in the foodie world as the caviar chef with his intense focus on seafood. He prides himself on only using eco-friendly and sustainable ingredients, but everyone's favorite thing on the menu is always the caviar. If you're crazy about caviar, you can even book one of the guided tours on their fish farm, Riofrio, during the summer months.

El Lago
Back in Marbella, El Lago is the premier place for locally-sourced foods. The restaurant is located inside the Greenlife Golf course, so it's the perfect place to go after enjoying a few rounds. The terrace where they serve patrons overlooks the luscious green and a large lake. They don't serve lunch because the restaurant doubles as the clubhouse while the sun is up, but there's no comparing their evening dining!

Of course, you don't need to eat at a Michelin-star restaurant to cap off a great day on the Sun Coast. There are plenty of tapas bars, pubs, and places on the beach to grab a quick bite. The Foodie Guide To Costa del Sol.
