9.5/10This is the third time we have visited El Chato and every time it has been excellent. It has a modern styling but still embraces tradition (I love the fact the waiters show you the fish you’ll be eating before it goes to the kitchen!), and I think the service and food is amongst, if not the, best in town. If you are staying near Los Alcazares, make a reservation here, and order the octopus!

10/10Delicious food, lovely staff as they gave great service. The seafood paella was divine!!! The Iberian pork was the best pork I’ve ever had! Definitely planning to return. Not if when.

8.5/10Lovely lunch, clams starter was delicious. Steamed mussels had not be cleaned correctly and had the beard left in, very off putting. Main course lobster paella was amazing! Female server was very friendly and helpful.

8/10Our reservation worked fine. The starters tuna tatami and salmon were amazing . Their olive oil was super tasty . Great choice of vermouth and wines. Mains we had sea bass and goat shoulder. Portions were decent and meat was well cooked. Some parts of the shoulder were too dry . We were seated outside and it’s actually in a side street. The total bill was 99 euros for two without dessert so a bit pricey for the region . Overall a good experience

9.5/10My wife and I made reservations to this restaurant not knowing what to expect. We had a wonderful meal with a starter, and entree of fresh fish. The chef did a great job on the fish and the presentation of the food was in the Michelin star range. Our waiter and his staff was top notch. We are in the town for a two week holiday and will definitely return to the restaurant prior to our departure!

4/10When we arrived the waiter said we hadn't reserved a table. I showed him the confirmation email from the fork website and he was very rude and said it was false! A waitress then came and showed us to a table, the restaurant was very hot & uncomfortable. My father ordered entrecot steak and there was so much fat and gristle on the steak he was unable to eat it. When we told the waiter he just shrugged his shoulders and walked away! So my father was expected to pay €24 for a meal he couldn't eat as the entrecot was that bad. My husband had the goat and I had pork and they were both lovely dishes. Overall the experience was bad due to extremely poor customer service. We will not be returning.

10/10Wonderful restaurant with a super feeling. Food was excellent, service better. Although their English was as limited as our Spanish we worked it out and they couldn’t do enough for us. Sea Bass for two was to die for.
