We had a nice dinner here, it is always packed so make sure you make a reservation in advance. The patio area is great for a summer night in the old town. We ordered artichokes, aubergine with sobrasada and clams. We had tenderloin and fish of the day as mains. The meat was ok, the fish was delicious. I would order fish again. We had torrija for dessert and was sooo tasty! Highly recommended!

Malabrasa is a great restaurant, which I hope to revisit soon. I highly recommend this restaurant as the food and service were beyond expectations. This restaurant was a pleasant surprise during our trip to Javea, Spain. I had the chicken Paella and even a week later, I can't stop thinking about how amazing it was. I recommend this restaurant as a must stop if you happen to visit this little town.

This is their First day open today in their new premises and promise’s great things. Very tasteful decor. Tasty food and good prices. Staff were very attentive. I think this is a little oasis in the Old Town.

The menu offers a delightful array of delicious dishes, showcasing exceptional taste and culinary expertise. The service is top-notch, and the staff is incredibly friendly. I highly recommend it!

Malabrasa is an honest and fair priced tavern in Jávea’s old town, fresh good quality product and attention from staff was great! Keep the good work guys and this is definitely a place to make a reservation when you visit Javea.

Increíble Fish “ Corvina and Rodaballo” “ like Sea bass and grilled Turbot” great fresh tomato. Price is reasonable and great terrace. Fully recommended.

The food was good, overall, but the staff was unfriendly, and it felt like they have low patience to "non-local." We love exploring different food and flavors, but felt like we're bothering them, and that's a shame.
