Los Sardinales
Charcoal espetos and rice on Alicate beach since 1995
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed June 2026
A proper Marbella chiringuito on Playa del Alicate, run since 1995 on the espeto tradition: sardines skewered and grilled over an open driftwood fire. Beyond the famous sardines come fresh fish off the day's catch and slow-cooked rices and paellas. Locals rate it among the best espetos in town, and the prices stay grounded for this stretch of coast.
Editor's Tip
Lunch on the terrace, espetos off the fire. A local institution, not a scene.
