Standing along one of the city’s main avenues, Piripi is one of the best-known tapas venues in Alicante, featuring a busy tapas bar on the ground floor (you can also eat at the bar counter) and a meticulous dining room upstairs. The extensive à la carte showcases its signature dishes, superb rice options, and an array of daily specials (fish and seafood are sourced daily direct from the fish auctions in Dénia and Santa Pola).

Next to the emblematic La Lonja del Pescado building, a jewel of historicist architecture that now serves as an exhibition hall, this restaurant offers cuisine centred around a highly natural base, with pure flavours and no dressing up, as here they always highlight local seasonal produce (many raw ingredients come from their own vegetable garden, called Terramón and located just 9 miles away). The menu, which takes Alicante's culinary tradition as a starting point and attempts to offer a contemporary interpretation of Mediterranean cuisine, takes shape through three menus: Alicante, Monastrel

This bright, stone-walled restaurant in the heart of Alacant is the dream come true of chef Javier Beltri, who named the restaurant after his father (Victor Beltri, known to his family as Vituco).

Here, the contemporary à la carte and menu options (daily and seasonal) change every two months. Their cuisine, with specials such as the delicious Stroopwafel (a reinterpretation of a Dutch dessert), combines Central European, French and Spanish influences. Sauces are a prominent presence, while many dishes are given a finishing touch on the grill.

A super-cool gastro-bar with an attractive bar and a variety of tables serving tapas, salted meats, Iberian hams, seafood, caviar, and rice dishes. Cocktails and after-work drinks complete the picture! Our recommendations? In the El Portal classics section, you have to try El bocata de Sergio, an absolute smash hit, and an already iconic snack, its iPepito, a tribute to Steve Jobs.

As soon as you enter Nou Manolín, your gaze is immediately drawn to the superb array of shrimp, red prawn, crayfish, oysters etc in the seafood display. Whether you choose the bar on the ground floor or the dining room with a delightful designer-inspired ceiling upstairs, the market-inspired menu (featuring a few media-ración options and a small selection of rice dishes), is identical. To round off your meal in style, make sure you order the almond nougat soufflé with chocolate ice cream.
