Marbella Restaurants
Marbella is no longer the exclusive resort that it used to be which is
reflected today in the vast quantities of eateries available to suit every
pocket.
Many tourists head to the restaurants around the Plaza de los Naranjos
in the old centre of town. Most of these tend to be excessively touristy and
overpriced.
If you head down to the Puerto Deportivo you'll find a whole range of bars and
restaurants too numerous to list here.
What we've tried to do is provide a
selection of quality restaurants below (many in the expensive category) as well
as some well established places where their survival over the years is a
testament to their excellence.
