If you're in the mood for a good pizza, I would suggest this place as they have many great options, reasonably priced and it was delicious. They also have non pizza items if you're not in the mood. I do know they let you order to go and I think they also do delivery through apps. My only complaint to management/ staff is that I wish they would step in when beggars or street vendors came to your table. We had a old woman ask us for money ( she begged us for a while ) while we were eating and it would have been nice for a waiter or the host to step in and make sure she left. She stopped at every table outside and they didn't do anything. I would still come back here as the food and staff were good, but the above note is a suggestion for the future.

As I sat at my outside table at Il Cantuccio, perusing the large restaurant sign with the name Il…read moreCantuccio on it with 2 clinking glasses and evidence of merriment, I wondered what the name of the restaurant stood for. Was it perhaps champagne or celebration or even wedding? So, I asked the waitress and she told me that it stood for corner and indeed, Il Cantuccio is on a corner. The restaurant's main seating is outdoors with tables going round the corner from the restaurant's main entrance. When I asked what they did if it rained, my waitress said it rarely rained on the Costa del Sol I do like eating alfresco and I did enjoy the ambiance of the outdoor setting in spite of the booming music coming from a kids' birthday party in the neighbouring square. Hot climates means that lighter dishes go down better and as I scanned the menu, my eye was drawn to the tasting menu offering 5 course for 35 Euros, excellent value for money A plate of amuse bouches arrived first - marinaded mushrooms and local ham. It demonstrated some nice produce from surrounding areas and was a good start The bread arrived with 2 flavoured butters, one with garlic and the other with tomato. Already, I could tell that the kitchen was really into flavour and everything tasted clear and distinctive 1. Prawn ravioilis in pesto sauce Generously sized raviolis were filled with prawns which were chopped but still had enough texture to be obviously prawn. The pesto sauce really brought the dish together with the nutty perfume of pinenuts and basil combining perfectly. The chef had assured me that everything was made fresh on-site and the pesto sauce proved it - you wouldn't get this quality otherwise 2. Duo of pates with cranberry sauce The liver pate was super smooth and the rougher Iberico pork pate had wonderful texture and both pates packed a meaty punch, which was perfectly balanced out by the sweet and slightly sharp cranberry 3. Courgette soup Such an innocuous name. A dish that I would never order off an a la carte menu. A dish which only had one main vegetable in it - courgette - and yet this was the standout dish of the evening. It was full of sweet and deep deep flavour. Anyone that can extract that amount of flavour from courgette is a genius though the cook showed me her primary ingredient - the largest courgette I have ever seen. It was more the size of a squash 4. Entrecôte of beef, potato gratin, parsnip purée & mixed vegetables I was beginning to realise by now that in northern Europe, we just don't have the conditions for top class ingedients. The sunshine must infiltrate the vegetables and from this dish, also the animals. This was a top class piece of beef, cooked to medium rare perfection 5. Poached pears with choocolate ice cream I laughed when this dish arrived. After having seen the largest courgette ever in my life, I now saw the smallest pears. A lovely end to the meal Make no mistake. This is a kitchen of the highest class. They understand good ingredients, the importance of extracting flavour, balancing different components and how to put a tasting menu together

It is open quite late for lunch (till 4pm, then they close until dinner time) so it is a convenient restaurant in the city center but do not free your agenda to go there, it is not worth the hassle.

Zero stars if I could. Worst restaurant experience I've had--anywhere…read more I had the misfortune of dining here alone while in Mijas. As soon as I walked in, I was ushered to the very back of the restaurant--can't help but wonder if it was because I didn't fit their idea of the "right" kind of tourist (i.e., not Nordic-looking). I had a choice between this place and a spot right across the street. I picked this one because the menu listed individual servings of paella--four kinds, actually. Big mistake. I waited over 30 minutes for what turned out to be an absolute disaster of a dish. The paella arrived looking sad and sloppy--completely unappetizing. I took a bite and instantly regretted it: salty as seawater and just plain gross. Easily the worst paella I've ever tasted. I only forced a few bites down because it cost nearly €18 and I didn't want to waste the money. Things only got worse from there. I asked several servers--three or four--for the check and a glass of water. Neither came. My mouth was parched from the salt bomb I just ate. Eventually, someone dropped off the bill--but still no water. I intended to pay by card but again, no one came. After waiting forever, I gave up and luckily had just enough cash to cover the charge. The bill had the nerve to say, "Service not included." I left the exact amount and walked out in search of real food--and basic human decency. Avoid this place. Mijas has so many better options.

I don't think Maria spoke English, but communication wasn't an issue at all! :) This is a great option if you don't feel like tapas, not super-carby either!

Our reservation was for 1915 and we ordered sangria to start along with tapas. Both great. We then ordered a paella. My husband was still eating when the waiter came along about 2000 , (8pm) and said he was dropping the bill as they were closing soon due to it being a holiday for 'Father's Day' ; we didn't know that as for one , the restaurant took the reservation and sat us & next we aren't Spanish. They came by with the credit card machine .. started locking stuff up and told us we could stay. Rude and not okay. Honestly there were great open air restaurants right by our hotel and we could have saved the money on the Uber and being rushed through dinner. Rip off and not okay.
