Denia Restaurants
Meson
Asador Gallego - Ctra Las Marinas Km 1 from Denia (on the right
hand side) Tel: 96 643 0813.
"This rustic, dark wood restaurant specialises in the food from Galicia
in the north of Spain. It has a very elegant, Spanish feel to the decor
and the food is exceptional. Only a little English is spoken and your
fellow diners will almost always be Spanish which adds to the atmosphere
and the recommendation! A 'busy' painted sign showing meat grilling over
an open fire hangs over the pavement and it is just after the garage on
the right hand side as you leave Denia on the Las Marinas road. The actual
entrance to the restaurant is a little hard to see from the road but persevere
it is larger than you would expect and a real eating experience. Such
restaurants are not cheap but they are very special. Dress up and be prepared
to stay for hours!" Annie P. April '08
Bambu
Restaurante - C/Assagador de la Marjal - Ctra 013 Denia.
"The Bambu is hidden away in a residential
area near 'Restaurant Alley' which begins at the Las Marinas road with
Cafe Solo as a good land mark. Go up 'Restaurant Alley' to the crossroads
and turn right...Bambu is on your left almost immediately. It is a German
owned restaurant which is open all day and evening Tuesday to Sunday in
season. It has recently been completely renovated and emphasises Bamboo
furniture as it's name suggests. The interior is spacious and modern whilst
being welcoming with various items of excellent quality, modern art on
display by local artists. The bamboo theme also extends outside to the
gardens. The International menu is extremely diverse and the food beautifully
presented. An ideal place for a special meal." Annie P. April '08
The
Orange Grove - Camino de Gandia (5km towards Els Poblets village from
Denia) Tel: 96 578 8306.
"This delightful English restaurant is on a
bend in the road, in amongst the orange and grapefruit groves, hence it's
name. There is a reasonable amount of parking on site and the possibility
of more in a side street off the main Denia/Els Poblets road. The restaurant
is awash with fairy lights at night and has a beautifully designed 'Orangy'
sign hanging like an old fashioned pub sign which is easily visible day
and night. The interior is reminiscent of an old English pub and has an
open log fire in the winter. Additionally the owners Colin and Pat have
added a very well put together extension with heavy duty plastic sides
that roll up in summer but can be unfurled if it's particularly windy.
There are free standing patio heaters in the extension for chilly days.
The menu is predominantly famous English dishes with a few additional
international favourites. Their vegetables are particularly good crisp,
fresh and tempting rather than mushy and overcooked! Colin and Pat offer
themed evenings from time to time, excellent traditional Sunday Lunches
and the best ever Christmas Day Lunch with ALL the trimmings that starts
at 1pm and goes on.......for as long as it takes! Xmas 2007 they had a
flamenco dancer to entertain during the Christmas Pudding! Eating there
is a lovely way to combine the nostalgia of England with the Orange Groves
of Valencia! Open evenings, with occasional lunch times, ring and ask!
Bookings required." Annie P. April '08
La Galicia - also known as the cowshed! - "In winter it is lovely and warm and you can watch your steak being cooked. Also quite cheap." Linda H. March '08
La Sella - "On a warm, sunny day if you fancy a good cup of coffee in peaceful surroundings, if the hustle and bustle of the seafront does not appeal, the coffee shop near the La Sella tennis complex is a great place to sit and watch the (sometimes embarrassingly awful) tennis while you sip your coffee or hot chocolate and read the paper. There are stables nearby and you can hear the horses and smell the hay. All very soothing." Jan G. March '08
The
Wok - "This was recommended so
we trailed along there to sample the goodies. Really I was a bit disappointed,
I found the food had been sitting in the servers for quite a long time
and the sesame toast etc was a little tired and curled. It is a self service
restaurant cobbled out of a car showroom or something equally enormous,
with scary gold resin coated dragons everywhere and you can pick and choose
dishes from a vast array of stainless steel bin things. However, I have
been spoiled by waiter service and prefer food to come to me, not the
other way around. It was okay but I would not go back. For those who yearn
to queue for food, it’s on the main drag into Denia from Javea,
shortly before ‘Casa’ on the right. There is another one in
Javea near Barclays Bank roundabout." Jan G. March '08
