EL BALCÓN DE LA VIRGEN

The food at El Balcón de la Virgen was delicious. I had the entrecôte, my wife had the salmon (whose sauce is a bleu cheese base) and my daughter had the vegetarian paella. All were wonderful and the service was amazing. We had an early-ish dinner - about 5:30pm - on the patio.

We received a lovely little bite to start, excellent drinks, followed by a wonderful dinner. The prices were reasonable and the desserts were just the right size-since we barely had room! The wait staff was attentive and friendly. We chose to eat inside as the restaurant interior was quite nice. Would definitely recommend.

Located in Marbella’s Old Town, we arrived without a booking, 1.5-hour wait for the terrace but got a table inside right away. Rustic Andalusian charm and very friendly staff. They take orders in a set sequence, so you might wait a bit before ordering, and it actually matched the saying printed on their table covers about the virtue of patience. Turbot was fresh and perfectly cooked, grilled fish steak also very good. Pizza, however, was disappointing. Tip: book for the terrace, otherwise inside is quiet and fast to get a table. Worth it for the fish, not for the pizza.

Thank you for the whole staff the 2 evening that we spend here. The services was perfect, they always had one eye on us. It was one of the warmest restaurant that I have been in Marbella. Especially the second night when they recognized us and gave an outside table. The whole staff has a big heart. The foods are delicious. Thank you, Reczicza family from Hungary

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at this authentic Spanish restaurant: El Balcon de la Virgen. ♥️ The food was excellent – both the starters (Gambas Pil Pil & Choricitos Sidra) and the main courses (Pata Pulpo) were bursting with flavor and prepared with great care. The Sangria Blanco was, without a doubt, the best in all of Marbella. During our 4-day visit, we came here twice because we were so captivated by the delicious dishes and the genuine warmth of the people - Rafa, Martin and Marco made us feel like part of their family from the moment we walked in. We wholeheartedly recommend this place, and we will definitely visit again the next time we return to Marbella! ♥️

Please avoid this restaurant when you want to order pizza! I have never eaten such a bad pizza in whole my life! They are probably buying in supermarket and just heat it up in the oven. We paid almost €60 for nothing!Very bad!!!

Loved dining here last Saturday. Very buzzy atmosphere in the heart of the old town near the Orange square, superb food and wine. Outside seats and very relaxed. Pork cheeks were outstanding.
