It is actually in Benimar, not Benijofar but the town's just a short walk away. (We brought 2007 in alongside Benijofar church ) Some of our friends live in Benimar & they use many restaurants there mainly for convenience as they just walk from their home along the road. We've been to both Chinese's, preferring the one not on the main road. We love The Yellow Rose Of Texas (Mexican), we've eaten at The Pub & have heard The Taj Mahal is superb, though we've yet to go. _______________________ Away till 24th October in Spain Spam post?

We used to go to T.J for the auction then get a take away and walk back through the Orange and Lemon groves, Not tried the Mexican. The Pub was good but it was packed when we went. I also like the Dutch butcher shop brilliant. Pat _______________________ Spam post? If so please click here to report it

It was a couple of years ago when everything was so new to us there. We'd been told by friends who go a lot that it was imperative to book so we asked the couple we went with to do that & they booked around 10 days before we went seeing as we didn't obviously want to turn up, expecting to get in, & couldn't. I guess every restaurant has its moments when food isn't as good. These days we like to go to Spanish restaurants rather than anything else but we do go Chinese usually Sat or Sun. _______________________ Away till 24th October in Spain Spam post?

It is awesome!! The food & service are superb. Reasonably priced & their attention to detail makes the meal very interesting.

We went in February & again in May & it was really busy. There were 6 of us (4 adults & 2 kids (who eat like horses)) & the bill was only about 80 Euros including all drinks & it would have included dessert if we had been able for it. There is also a little restaurant in Algorfa on the main road (not the one that goes to La Finca) - sorry I don't know the name of it - we had an amazing Paella for 10 Euros each.

Basically if you turn left out of Fontana development & go down to the narrow junction where the traffic lights are & turn left. The restaurant is then along that main road on the right hand side. It is somewhere that I would probably have walked past as from the street it looks more like a take away/ snack bar type place. However, when you go through that part & to the left, there is a lovely cosy restaurant which would accommodate probably no more than 25 people at a time. The staff speak only Spanish but we managed. The owner was so proud of this superb Paella that he posed for a photo before we even got the camera out!! We were in Algorfa with my cousin at the time & didn't take any notice of the name - if I find out I will post it on here.

Apparently some restaurants won't do the paella without 24 hours notice. Maybe "Georgia" might know the name of the restaurant as I believe he lives in/near Algorfa.

These are seperate and one of the only ones I know to have both. I can recommend it for a MDD lunch as well Sue Spam post? If so please click here to report it
