"Everything Harry says in his review is largely on the money: And don 't just take his and my word for it: This restaurant has about 800 ! reviews on Tripadvisor, almost all of them hugely positive. Who knows why Yelpers have stayed away, except that they 're apparently ig 'nant? Tropicana is off the beaten tourist path, it offers excellent value for your euro, and the service was phenomenal. The restaurant 's in a storefront in about a mile down the Ave. Málaga from the Plaza de España area, in a modern residential area, so it is somewhat out of the way for tourists. For us, getting there was a pleasant 20-minute walk on a beautiful evening. It 's been quite awhile since we there, but I do remember that the food was excellent, expertly prepared and creative. We shared a perfectly crispy fried spring roll of sorts filled with robustly-flavored braised oxtail that was seriously delicious , wonderful marinated anchovies, and morcilla served over nicely fried potatoes and topped with a poached egg, and a pickled padrón? pepper onions. For an entree, I had an octopus arm that was about as big as a baby 's forearm and that sold for only 16 euro great value! ; can 't really remember the accompaniments there, but the cephalopod was very nicely grilled. All of this stuff was terrific and robustly flavorful. My only complaint--and maybe part of the blame should be attributed to our ordering--was that everything was cumulative extremely rich--very heavy, with some items doused with perhaps a bit too much olive oil. Our server, who was the son of the chef, was as good as he could be. He spoke superb English didn 't even give us a chance to work on our Spanish, which had improved a bit by this late point in the trip! , took pains to guide us through the menu, and was just great all-around at his job. Decor-and-ambience wise, Tropicana is a bit of a puzzle. Obviously, the name suggests a Latin-American vibe, and aqua-ish color scheme, smooth surfaces, and clean-lines did, too. It almost seems like a Miami -themed restaurant, but then the food seems much more Spanish/European. Either way, it 's comfortable and sharp-looking enough."

"Tras leer un artículo donde el chef de BARDAL (restaurante de dos estrellas michelín ubicado en Ronda), reseñaba los que para él eran los mejores para tapear bien, nos decantamos por CASA MATEOS, donde cenamos dos noches seguidas todas las tapas imaginables y a cual más ricas: ensaladilla rusa, choricillos, mollete de pringa, mini hamburguesa de rabo de toro...Todo ello regado con un buen vino de Rioja (BERONIA). Detalles: el local es encantador, de mesas altas de madera. Las tapas calientes se ordenan en la cocina, es decir, se hacen al momento. Tanto el dueño como el camarero son muy amables y simpáticos, y te hacen sentir como en tu casa. Muy recomendable."

"ugar diferente, ese es su encanto. Al reservar, primero te explican su forma de trabajar: tú eliges la bebida, y ellos te ponen la comida (fresca y de temporada . El precio es cerrado, pero la bebida no está incluida. Siempre preguntan primero si hay algún alimento que no te guste o si tienes alguna alergia alimentaria. Aunque pueda parecer caro, la calidad y la forma de tratar el producto merecen la pena. El servicio amable en todo momento. Buena recomendación también a la hora de probar el vino. Destacamos los espárragos a la brasa con queso y uvas, el solomillo de ternera y el postre (tarta de Nutella blanca y amarena, deliciosa . El precio nos pareció adecuado para la calidad de los platos. Sin duda, volveremos a repetir"

"Good bar to eat tapas in Ronda. It is small better to reserve. If you go with older people, as was my case, let us know first since most of the tables are at a height. We did not do it, but even when the grandparents were sitting on a high stool we were very comfortable. Very attentive waiters. I went with my daughter who is Celiac and they treated her phenomenally, very attentive to the issue of cross contamination and with her, they adapted the tapas she requested without problem. It's nice to find bars that offer gluten-free options. All the delicious tapas, but the spectacular px sirloin croquettes... Dietary restrictions: Celiac disease Price per person: €20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Bacalao Frito, Morcilla de la Abuela, La Flor de Alcachofa, Croquetas de Solomillo Al px"

"Orson Welles ate here. Ernest Hemingway ate here. I ate here. Pedro Romero has an amazing location, immediately across the street from the Plaza del Toro, just a few steps away from that mind boggling bridge. After several days of tapas, my fiancee and I were looking for something different. Thankfully, Pedro Romero had it. Their menu is quite large. I had the solomillo de buey (25 € a steak fillet that was cooked perfectly as requested. It came with awesome potatoes and peppers. It really hit the spot. With a couple glasses of wine, our lunch for two came to 68.21 €. Service was excellent. There were plenty of blue haired American tourists yakking it up in loud English, not even trying to speak Spanish and the waiter kept his cool. I think we got points for at least trying to order in Spanish. The decor is awesome. You're basically eating in a bullfighting museum. There are tons of pictures of bullfighters and a few bull heads on the wall. It's very busy, but it feels authentic. They're not trying to be something they're not. These guys just love bullfighting and they want to display their heroes. I may be pushing up the rating a bit because of the restaurant's history, but that's part of the reason you drive to a place like this in the middle of nowhere. I will think of Pedro Romero fondly."
