    Absolutely brilliant El Pescador soup - the best fish soup I've ever had. Excellent seabass in salt.

    The Paella was a huge let down, the rice was very salty and there was little taste.

    I had the house white and it was a very good choice. The winelist is of excellent choices. The prawns in garlic was fresh and succulent. For my main i had the seabass cook in salt or Dorado al sal. This was top notch and a delight to see them uncover and serve. The fish is so tender and the meat succulent. The service was good and attentive. I would definitely eat here again and highly recommended that you go for the fish and stay away from the meat. Enjoy

    A centrally located traditional Spanish restaurant with a varied menu. Very attentive staff and delicious food. The lunchtime menu of the day is superb.

    We had an amazing waitress called Rocio. She was incredible friendly and kind. The most remarkable dish for us was "Pimiento de Piquillo relleno de bacalao" . We took the menu of the day and it was good value/ price. The only observation is that my dish was too oily, I had merluza and potatoes. My family was very satisfied with their dishes (Lenguado and Codillo).

    Got it! Here's an updated version of your text: The starter dish of mixed fried seafood was excellent, as was the main course of Dorada baked in salt, which my friend ordered. I chose the sole (lenguado), but unfortunately, it was disappointing—the texture was rough, and the taste lacked refinement. The sauce,did not stand out either

    A lovely restaurant. Specialising in seafood Our food was very well. presented and cooked to perfection. Most of us had fish but my husband had lamb chops which he really enjoyed. Our only small complaint was that not everything listed on the menu was available. We would highly recommend this restaurant.

    We ordered several paellas and shared them amongst us in a party of 10 people and all the paellas were delicious! It's rare to find a good restaurant in Torrevieja, and El Pescador is definitely a gem.

    Have not been to this restaurant for many years. Our friends had just arrived in Spain and wanted fish. It was the logical place to go. Our four starters were Chiperones, Pulpa a Gallega, artichokes with ham and Avocado with crab. The presentation was superb Our main course, two of us had the grilled Turbot and the other two the sole ‘Pescador’ with clams and prawns. Again the presentation was fabulous. All dishes were cooked to perfection and really delish. It was great value for money. We will not wait so long to return.

    We have been at El Pescador before, and this time we decided that it will be a tradition to go here every time we go to our holiday home in Torrevieja. The fish is so delicious and beautifully presented. We sat outside this time, and enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere with lots of Spanish families on vacation passing by this August evening. If you are in Torrevieja and would love a delicious fish meal, book a table here.
