Canalla - Roquetas de Mar

What can i say, great food very very tasty and even if it doesn’t look a lot on the plate i can guarantee you will leave the restaurant full. The staff are very helpful and help you choose what to eat if you need some help(In Spanish, not sure if they speak any other languages) Inside the restaurant they have air conditioning or you can sit outside, the restaurant isn’t that big so it can get busy quickly. Best to book and reserve a table or get there early. The kids loved the food and we enjoyed our meal very much and it would definitely be worth a visit again if we were ever in the area. Price of the food and drink is average, not cheap or expensive all depends on what you choose to eat and drink. I recommend trying it if you fancy some Mexicano food.

Looking forward to something other than mediocre tapas, my husband and I sought out this place in search of some Mexican food, a little spice and heat. Disappointingly, it's located at the heart of the Centro Commercio in Aguadulce, which we were not prepared for. Although the resort is not as geared up for tourism as nearby Roquetas de Mar it is still full of the lowlifes and filth you'd expect to see on a Saturday evening in Magalluf, not a Monday evening in Aguadulce. Hence our scuttle to the very back of the restaurant, indoors and further away from the neon lights, trashy Garage/Pop music and touts handing out flyers/promises of fluorescent shots. We hoped the food would be as good as the reviews. But.. They do not serve Gin. Or Vodka. Or Cava even. So we plumped for wine. No choice, just red or white and served as the seemingly popular scant approx 130ml serving that we practically downed in three gulps and had to request another within 15 minutes. Our free tapa was a portion of dry tortilla chips with a rather nice, spicy drizzle of sauce but clearly not enough to cover more than three chips. We ordered a tortilla to share. The beef. Tasty enough, if only there'd been more than 2 tablespoons of beef in the darn thing. It was all cheese. The carnitas burritos we ordered seemed full of promise but were brought out on a single wooden board, halved and rather scant portion wise. Where was the accompanying salad, sauce, guacamole, cheese, soured cream? It looked more like something from Subway. Worse still, it absolutely lacked flavour and the rice was sloppy and wet like a risotto that has too much liquid and needs to be cooked down a further 10 mins. Bland. Tasteless. Disappointing. That said, the staff are friendly enough and there's some quirky paintings on the wall that raise a snigger or two. As far as Aguadulce goes, with its very limited culinary options this is probably good to some. However, having eaten good, authentic Mexican food ourselves this was nothing more than mediocre to us. Such a shame, as the resort is crying out for more international cuisine options and good quality food.

The best Mexican street food I have had since moving to Spain. Super-cool decor. My 5 year old described it as the best restaurant ever , and they were able to accommodate her more delicate tastebuds with a cheese and bacon quesadilla. I went for a selection of spicy tacos recommended by staff and they were all great and distinctive. If you are in the Aguadulce/Roquetas area it is a must visit. I would probably drive the 2 hours from my home just to visit again.

Chilled out vibe, great food and service, the burritos and quesadillas were fantastic, will definitely return

In 2013, visited Mexico. The list of the most popular hot appetizers of local cuisine is represented by caadelia and tacos.It was pleasantly surprised to meet the same taste and get into the atmosphere of Mexican mood in Spain .One serving of snacks costs you about 7 euros. It is worth trying and diversifying your daily diet..to allocate time for something more interesting than Spanish tapas.
