Hostal Maruja - Elx

Very expensive despite the great Spanish ambiance. Made the mistake of choosing the 200g burger that the Spanish family next to us were devouring with gusto. It looked very meaty but was very undercooked! Did ask for it to be very well done but for the money we both left most of it. Normal customer service they would have not let you pay but they’re just so busy here we’re just a tourist so it’s not gastro and your overpaying to sit by the sea.

As others have said it’s all about the view. We were there on a busy Sunday lunch with no booking. After a 10 min wait we were seated with an amazing view and in a lovely breeze. Service was hit and miss, our waiter was very busy and threw the plates and drinks on the table! The calamari was excellent and the paella was very good if a little oily for our taste. The sangria was also very weak. But it didn’t spoil our lunch which we very much enjoyed.

Comida excelente, vistas excelente, calidad precio excelente. Sobre todo, en particular el camarero Josué, un auténtico profesional, atento y...

Excellent food and service and you couldn’t get a better setting

Sólo falla una cosa, la prepotencia y la mala educación del que dirige el Hostal Maruja este año. Después de 4 décadas ya no vuelvo más.
