It's surpisingly difficult to find good food in Nerja. This restaurant offers limited menu of interesting dishes with daily specials. The food was freshly prepared and tasty. The staff was friendly and attentive. Overall, above average experience. Recommended. More

This is a quality restaurant, always busy with a varied menu and a little for everyone. The tempura battered king prawn starter was excellent and the mains of Rosada wrapped in bacon and Black pepper Swordfish left us too full for dessert. With a bottle of water and a bottle of wine the bill came to €58 which for two... More

Stumbled upon this restaurant by chance whilst out on a reccy. Most of the restaurants in the area were nearly empty and this one was almost full - always a good sign and we were not disappointed. A good selection on the menu which catered for most tastes and I plumped for the day's specials - home made potato &... More

Quality of food and presentation second to none. I cannot fault this restaurant at all apart from the choice of desserts which I thought was average so didnt have one. The starter and main course however was amongst the best food I've ever eaten More

There was a nice ambience on the roof terrace, although the fact that all the waiting-on staff were English removed any 'continental' flavour (but service was good). The food was very good - I had the rosada wrapped in bacon and my wife a lamb dish. My wife had also visited earlier in the year and enjoyed the Thai curry.... More

We ate on the middle terrace which was very pleasant, we had been previously and were aware that the restaurant was a bit more expensive than the surrounding establishments but felt it was worth it Once again on this occasion we were not disappointed, staff were very welcoming and professional and the food was extremely good, nice steak and seafood...

I'm a bit picky. I like my steak as a fillet and cooked to American medium well -- not the leather version in Britain. And most cooked veg gets left on my plate. After four trips to Scarletta's in the past year, the food consistently gets polished off my plate. It is my favourite Nerja restaurant. My husband and I... More

We picked out Scarlettas quite randomly one evening while walking in Nerja. We sat at the upper roof terrace which had nice views of the surrounding mountains. The food both evenings was delicious and plentiful in supply. the dessert (brownie) was very tasty and the glass of Sangria was delicious. Scarlettas have a wide variety of food-fish, burgers, pasta etc.... More

During our 4-day stay in Nerja, we enjoyed two wonderful meals at Scarletta's. Nerja, like many seaside destinations, features an amazing number of restaurants within the town centre. There was a surprising variety to choose from, but Scarletta's stood out clearly in terms of quality. We ate on the lower terrace the first time, the upper terrace the second, each... More

Been to Scarlettas before, and on one occasion been disappointed with the service, but the food is very good. I believe it's English owned, all the staff are certainly British. I had been intending on going to The California which is two doors down from Scarlettas, but it was closed so we decided to go her instead. Beer was expensive... More
