Having read the stuff on here about El Posito I had been meaning to eat here for some time. My wife and I were in the port last week and had dinner there on one of the nights. We loved it, great food, properly prepared and delivered with a touch of eccentricity. We'll be back!

We are returning to PP after 8 yrs. Often ate at El Posito , when we last were there I believe Toni had aken oer from his father Vicente? Brother of Manolo who runs Tangos? Would like to know what has happened to the family, they were always so lovely. Is Cathy a Scottish lady still around, believe she isn`t at Tots anymore but at Trios? Thanks

Went back to El Posito last night for the first time in 3 years, may I point out that this was not because of the restaurant or it's food but not going to go into it now. Anyway so glad we did, in my opinion the place has it's old atmosphere back with Toni & the new guy front of house, they are really very good. Soup of the day for me which was tomato. Don't know what it is with me having soup so much as I don't really eat tomato soup but it was very nice. Senior mwc had croquettes (again) which he said was the best ones he had tasted so far. Fresh tuna steak for mrs mwc & John Dory with garlic for the rest of us, again very good, 2 massive portions of chocolate cake for the boys for desert & with a couple of beers, soft drinks, water & 2 bottles of house red (again very good) the bill was 138 euros. Was also really nice to meet mr & mrs sparky for the first time, just a shame we didn't have more time to chat, though saying that we will definitely be back, so hopefully see them again.

I look forward to eating at El Posito later this summer during my annual visit to PP. It feels good to know that the restaurant still is in good hands when it comes to both cooks and waiters. I like that they found their way back to a more spanish vibe.
When I come to think of it, I know two brothers named Miguel and Jesús, the latter being the little one. Anyone know approximately how old they are or if they come from a local family? If not, I'll find out by myself later this summer. I'm just curious, it's a weakness of mine.

Hi Domino, i have had a chat with Miguel who works in El Posito, he is one of many brothers/sisters, he is 35 and Jesus is 25 another brother is Rafa who runs Bar Aries and he is 37.
It would be great if you sent me a PM telling me your real name and how and where you got to know the lads because Miguel is now also very curious to know if he remembers you.

Oh, then it's definitley not them. "My" brothers are the only ones and both are in their twenties. Sorry for any confusion, and also for my late answer.

One of our top meals for years but haven't been quite as keen last few years as felt it was all a bit too much sauce and not enough flavour.
Been back a number of times this year and it is back to its best, if not a touch better with good simple presentation, fewer sides and more specials.
10 of us in the other night and shared starters of prawns, squid, frito and croquets went down a storm (especially with the under 10's !!)
Various mains including fresh beef for kids, special was tuna which was cooked blue and delicious
Tony on usual form and Sparky brightening up the far end of the bar .......

Went for dinner last night and i have to say that the food just keeps getting better and better.
Chef Damian prepared a starter for us which he had not done before, it was a salad of finely chopped red onion, tomato and avocado topped with mixed leaves and served with warm prawns, a touch of foie and a delicious dressing, all i can say is WOW!!!!. For mains we both had the roast lamb which was served with sauteed potatoes and a medley of fresh veg (mange tout, red onion and carrot), amazing flavours and we washed it down with a bottle of " Bicicletas y Peces", fantastic meal.
