The Horizon - Benalmádena

I have wanted to visit this establishment since our previous trip of 2019. I finally prevailed on our group that we visit. The service was lack-lustre and the food disappointed some of our group. In defence of the chef the steak was excellent. I must compliment the doorman who has treated me as a long time friend during both trips. Without his sense of humour and friendly demeanour I would never have tried this restaurant.

Went for steak and although they had sold out of fillet (always a good sign) the sirloin was delicious. Came with fries and salad and reasonably priced. Ribs were delicious too.

They aim to please ... give this place a visit. They aim to please ... This unpretentious almost-right-on-the-beach restaurant certainly aims to please with its generous portions of dishes designed to appeal to the “Common Man”. After a four-hour flight I elected to go for the simplicity of a filling meal in the immediate vicinity of my hotel. I chose their Horizon burger with papas fritas, accompanied by a nice 14.5% alcohol vino tinto, and followed by a strawberry and cream ice cream sundae and a cappuccino. All for just 38 euros. My restaurant experience interests range from Michelin Star restaurants to family-owned Mom and Pop restaurants to classic bodegas and bistros. This restaurant rates due to the honesty of the cuisine (menu, preparation and presentation) and the service with a smile. I travel the world alone, and my servers cannot rely upon me being entertained by an entourage. I received good attention and was made to feel special. The food was well-prepared and was served without much waiting time. Almost all of the wines are sold by the bottle but the quality and reasonable wine prices will encourage alone-dinners to stay until the last drop is imbibed. The three-tiered burger with tomato, lettuce and fried egg was tasty albeit a bit reminiscent of frozen hamburger patties. I understand, however, that their steaks are prime Irish beef. At any rate, do give this place a try when you just need to relax, eat well and inexpensively, and not have to worry about what you are wearing or who you are seen with.

The food was unreal, I had the ribs and they were so succulent and full of flavour! Hats off to the chef!! The staff inside were so welcoming and very nice they made our time very pleasant! The food in there is so so so good I would highly recommend and it’s such a lovely atmosphere too!! Thank you so much for such a wonderful evening great and amazing food!!! Made our family holiday perfect
