Probably the best restaurant I’ve ever been to. They have a very varied menu with very good prices. Apart from a delicious menu of the day for 13,50€. The treatment of the waiters was excellent. Everything was really clean and there was very calm atmosphere. I 100% recommend.

Came for menu del dia based on previous reviews. Quality for the price is average. Service friendly.

Manolo is a very solid place to eat in Arroyo de la Miel. The daily menu is very cheap, but offers quite some options and the quality of the food is decent. Also, the staff is very friendly and helpful, and they made sure that we could eat gluten free. Don't expect any Michelin level fine dining here, but if you're hungry and you want a good meal with some decent wine for little money, Manolo is the place to go. Bonus points for the perfectly clean bathroom, which is an exception in Benalmadena. We will definitely return.

Very nice place and staff and food. Fresh. It's great to be able to have my lunch early - it opens at 12:30 while most locals eat at 2pm or 3pm. And also great to not have to chose a side with the main, as it's got all veg, chips and salad as set. Very good value on the set menu and the a la carte is good too. Also a nice location.

One of our favorite spots. Family business since the 80’s. Very consistent and service always the best. I highly recommend this restaurant and we come at least once a week for their amazing menu. For €13.50 we get a drink, appetizer, main entrée and dessert or coffee. It can’t be any better than this

We chose from the Menu of the Day. Which offered a large choice of Starters, Mains and desserts. It also includes a bottle of wine between the two of us. The quality of the food and service is excellent and the price charged is Amazing. I would recommend trying this restaurant out if you are in Arroyo de la miel.
