Manero Alicante - Manero Mollá

Reserved a table for two for dinner during our honeymoon and was thrilled to be escorted to the champagne room at the back where we enjoyed a quiet lovely tapas night with good music and vibe. It is a bit pricey but definitely worth the experience. The French toast is definitely one to try when you are there! It can be quite busy at times and suggest making reservation to secure a decent table.

A beautifully appointed upmarket restaurant and bar. Tried to book online but too late. Went there anyway and was lucky enough to be seated at high tables by the entrance. Despite not being in the main part of the restaurant the service was excellent; friendly and attentive, with great food and wine recommendations. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. By far our most expensive meal in Alicante but also our most memorable experience.

The food and service was absolutely fantastic. Price point was a bit high but for the service and quality it was worth it. Crab from the seafood platter and lobster roll will be in my dreams...

We went to this cool, vibey bar in the heart of Alicante without a reservation and still managed to get a table. Lucas welcomed us with great attention and a warm smile. We ordered the tabla de queso and the pastrami bikini—both were really good. Overall, I’d give the value for money a solid 7/10. Definitely a nice spot if you’re looking for a fancy night out.

The food was tasty but expensive. Service was friendly and fast, yet we didn’t feel very comfortable. There was obvious upselling and a strong focus on increasing the bill. For example, we received a full bottle of wine instead of the two glasses we ordered, and bread was charged twice even though we said we didn’t want any more (the waiter even said it was ‘on the house’ but it still appeared on the bill). We were also asked three times if we wanted coffee or dessert. Maybe the intentions were good, but we found the experience pushy and unpleasant.

My partner and I came to Manero whilst we were visiting Alicante on holiday. We were taken back by how beautiful it was inside. The service was very attentive and polite. Shout out to Mauricio who made us feel very welcome. The food was very good too. We will be back for sure 😁

I’m glad I went to Manero, but it’s not a place I’ll be returning to. The service and ambiance were amazing, but the prices of the food for what you get don’t make sense. A friend and I shared some shrimps, tuna tartar, and garbanzos con espinacas— we paid 50€ per person and I left hungry. I’m glad that the waiter mentioned the shrimps were local. A worthwhile visit if you’re looking to splash out and have a bit of a fancy night, but otherwise you can skip it.

Stopped by at the dinner hour without a reservation and was given a table outside on the quiet side street - which was excellent. The food is delectable. The service, polished. The Maneto Negroni is inspired and much too easy to drink. I recommend highly.
