The drive is not for the faint-hearted though the journey is well worth it. I advise you make a reservation. For reservations tel. The Fiesta Restaurante-Bar is situated on the way into Mijas village. It has recently had a major face lift and is very popular with the locals.
Reservations are essential.
For reservations tel. They also have a great pill-pill and their fillet steak is one of the best I have ever tasted. The waiters are friendly and helpful. The view from the terrace across the square is wonderful and in the winter the inside is snug and cosy. The El Capricho is one of the oldest Spanish owned restaurants in the village and is located in the centre of Mijas in Calle Los Canos.
