Estepona is located on the South coast of Spain between Malaga and Gibraltar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our visit to this coastal holiday resort found us wondering the quaint back streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every few metres another restaurant proudly presents its menu. Some are busy and some sadly empty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But one restaurant stood out. It was efficiently busy, but it was caring not pressurised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is Galp\u00f2n 22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Food looked appetising as it was served by the staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The tables looked clean, seats comfy and spaced to allow privacy and an intimate dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The menu is varied and offers an Argentinian inspired choice of dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alex was welcoming, looked at us whilst he spoke and made friendly recommendations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I bet one day this place will be his!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The food was excellent!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We loved the Burrata and Avocado starter with salad, pine nuts and balsamic vinegar.. enough for two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The rib eye steak came with a chimichurri sauce, potatoes and we had additional veg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The slow cooked lamb looked as if would melt away from the bone and came with a creamy mash potato and shared the additional veg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This place is welcoming, efficient and good value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would have to recommend it as to say otherwise would be to not share our favourite culinary stop in Estepona.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
