Restaurante Cávala · Málaga

Anniversary dinner at Cavala Malaga and honestly, it couldn’t have been better. The staff were genuinely warm and attentive, making the night feel special without being over the top. Every seafood dish was beautifully cooked — clean flavours, fresh ingredients, and nothing trying too hard. You can tell there’s real respect for the produce here. It’s the kind of place where you slow down and truly enjoy the meal. If I’m being honest, this restaurant feels right on the edge of something big. A Michelin star wouldn’t surprise me at all.

Cávala was excellent. Perfect for a small group, a romantic dinner or a special occasion. The decoration is modern and chic. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The tasting menu was excellent with the wine pairing. The sommelier was very helpful with his recommendations. The dishes were all excellent and giving ideas of the cuisine of Malaga. The Visual presentation was fantastic.

We highly recommend this Restaurant👍The food was not only delicious, but also a work of art. We were served over 21 appetizers, and each one was exquisite. We were particularly impressed by the chef’s ability to create such fascinating dishes, especially the asparagus dish that looked a pen but was made of asparagus mousse😍 The service was also perfect, with professional and friendly staff. The only thing that could be improved is the lighting- it would be perfect if they could dim the lights a bit😀

We were perfectly accomodated as a group of 20 in the wine cellar and enjoyed the service thoroughly. We could not have been looked after better during our dining experience. The wine selection was impressive and every bottle we selected delivered high quality. The tasting menu was delicious, simple and clearly put together with quality and fresh ingredients, i just felt there was something small lacking, even perhaps something as simple as a touch of salt. I would highly recommend coming to experience this place for yourself as the food is interesting, simple, quality and fresh.

What a great experience! We spent a great evening enjoying the 10 course tasting menu including a (spontaneous) and very individual wine pairing plus recommended aperitivo cocktail. Service was very attentive but with obvious differences regarding level of quality and routine. Despite the fact that we liked it a lot, it is still some way to go for getting a Michelin Star: taste could have even more finesse, courses could be even more complex / elements and service should be on a more constant high level. That being said, 120€ pp all in is a high, but acceptable price given the wine pairing and the amount of courses.

I had a wonderful time at Cavala, specially regarding their amazing wine list with such reasonable prices. A big congrats on this and allowing people to drink great wines and not charging x3 or x4 like most.

Price range was definitely worth the food experience. Every dishes served came in the right order, artisticly presented , with surprising flavours. It was taste thst we never experienced before. Of all I would said the one i least enjoyed was the pasta, cocktails and desserts. Service was pleasant. Nice interior and wine cellar.

One of the most special dinners I have had. We got to try special wine matching each of the surprise menu dishes. The food was delicious and all dishes carefully and beautifully decorated.
