    Nice spot "on" the beach literally. Very quick service and all very decent. Do like the Spanish...eat fancy late and you will enjoy. Oh, I am used to spicy (believe me, just check my profile and my whereabouts of the last 20 years)...but spicy was spicy!! Great !

    This is a great chiringuito in a great location. The outdoor space is so inviting and welcoming and it’s a great place to people watch as well. Most of their food is great. Some items I feel they are overpriced but the rest of the menu is priced as what you would expect of a bar on the sand. Staff is very nice always and it’s a plus that they accept online reservations. Definitely, a great place to take visitors.

    I and my husband and daughter had dinner in this delicious place yesterday, and we have eaten the best ‘paella’ ever eaten in our life. The location is very nice, people very gentle and quality of food very good. We highly recommend this restaurant in Estepona.

    outstanding. Packed venue, great service and faultless food. The best Chiringuito i have tried so far. Not sure how they maintained standards under so much pressure but it was first class

    Lovely beachside chiringuito with attentive staff and really nice food. Highly recommend the arroz meloso with prawn and octopus and the pilpil prawns.

    This is one of the best restaurants we’ve eaten in the south of Spain. Definitely the best in Estepona (and we’ve tried the “fancy “ ones). Both food and service are great.

    We ordered rice, 2 types and it was delicious. Sardines also lovely. They have children's menu. Generous portions. Lovely atmosphere, very clean toilets. Service was a bit slow, mixed up my reservations and then we had to chase for ordering food and drinks. Recommendable!

    Not even in restaurant on the sunbed i paid 6 euros to rent Shockingly bad They think they own a public beach.told by an American waiter i can't eat my own food and drink whilst sitting on there sunbed i paid for and bought a tiny drink for 6 euros . On a public beach !! was going to eat in there restaurant not now.! You do not own the beach. And this is how u lose buissiness! Hope u can afford it!! I had no idea they owned the beds but what i eat and drink is up to me. Be careful!!

    I went on quite a windy day but that didn't stop us all having an enjoyable experience. I had the sardines as a starter and they were great, barbecued over coals and just some lemon. A paella for main course which we all shared was very good value, service good and prices reasonable in very good location. I will return

    Service was very fast and food was good. Great views as most of the tables are on the beach. We got there at about 8pm and we were fortunate to get in.

    Nice place on the beach with beautiful sea view. Delicious food, especially seafood but you can eat meet dishes also. Great place for evening dinner or lunch during the day. There's no parking spots so keep that in mind

    Amazing place. Aesthetically it’s beautiful, literally on the beach. Very warm and lovely staff that are really attentive but also clearly have fun and enjoy working together which is very important. Espetos de Sardinas are AMAZING and the price for portion size is really good. An easy 5 star review. Bravo El Madero!

    Beautiful location and the best squid I have tasted so far. Absolutely delicious and fresh food. The perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

    Somehow managed to walk past this Chiringuito and glad on this occasion we didn't. It has a lovely set up, warm and friendly and laid out well. The food and service were a very enjoyable experience and loved the ambience created by the decor and soft Ibiza tone music in the background. Would certainly recommend and will be back.

  • 4/5 TerraSur H. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful beach restaurant. The fish, sardines and pil pil are always fresh and delicious. The carrot cake is very nice too. Service is ok. One of the nicest chiringuitos on Estepona paseo.

  • 4/5 Taken B. 2 years ago on Google
    The food was great and the staff were very polite and they have staff that speaks fluent English. So dont worry, there wont be any language barriers. I went for their burger and it was delicious 😋. The Chiringuito is located in a good spot next to beach and next to a car park.

  • 2/5 Aneta i. 3 years ago on Google
    I had BBQ ribs and they were awful, horrible . tuna tartare, must say it was very nice if not the clean film in it ! We were in 7 , the most delicious food on the table were the sardines.

  • 4/5 Armand H. 2 years ago on Google
    We had lunch here during a day at the beach. Very nice chiringuito, friendly personal and the food wow we didn't expected this quality. Only minor point was we asked 4 times to pay and nobody ever came. My wife had to walk to the bar to ask again to pay :-( Without this small issue i would have given 5 stars.

    Lovely dinner at El Madero last night. Staff were accomodating when we arrived without a reservation. (Would recommend booking though!). We had the padron peppers, grilled sea bass with potatoes and fried king prawns with habenero and mango sauce, all shared and was enough for two. All super fresh and really tasty. Like the other Chiringuitos, if you order something grilled it'll be cooked outside on the BBQ which is fun to see. Prices were fair for the location (cheaper than most of the others). Staff were really friendly and attentive. Would absolutely go again!

    Well, what can you expect from a chiringuito (beach bar)? Great location with high prices. Food and drink is of high quality. Staff attend well and can speak English. When I'm feeling flush, I will go back again.

  • 5/5 Stewart P. 11 months ago on Google
    Fabulous in every possible way. Excellent service, unbelievably good food, reasonable prices and beautiful decor. After years of coming to the coast, I can honestly say this is the best beach chiringuito I’ve been to.

  • 5/5 Lauren S. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely incredible service and food. We went to the restaurant on our first night and it could not be faulted, absolutely delicious and great service. We then used the loungers on the beach, and the service was impeccable (can't remember the guys name , sorry🤦🏻‍♀️, but had an American accent) , he was so friendly, and welcoming that we came back on our final day, before having to leave Estepona. Thank you so much!

  • 5/5 Henri L. 10 months ago on Google
    Very good experience. Flexible, friendly and fast service to the beach. Nice looking and tasty lunch options, although rather expensive...but hey - on vacation you can handle this! Good selection of drinks, alson non - alcoholic.

    Food fine. Good choice. Convenient location. Attractive place. Staff need training - the only place we know where NOBODY smiles. Ever.

    Worst coffee I’ve drank in my life. Cappuccino is more like instant milk with a watery coffee side taste. Also the most expensive coffee I’ve drank in my life. It cost €4,50 and has nothing to do with coffee at all.. Not coming back here

👍👍 Very impressive geographic location. Excellent service and I really enjoyed being served by everyone who attended our table. It's a shame I did not take any pictures but in all honesty sometimes I just want to enjoy eating my food with my barehands like I did today for I have never enjoyed the Moule...
