"What an amazing experience we had at this restaurant! We ate here twice during our stay in Benidorm, it was that good! Very friendly and professional waiters, especially the gentleman with tattoos, sorry we didn't catch your name! Definitely a hidden gem in Benidorm. Pictures for proof of deliciousness"

Tapas Alley in Benidorm Old Town
The newly extended and renovated uber chic "Braseria Aurerra" specialize in meats cooked over a wood flamed bbq – you can smell the waft of the steak sizzling as you walk past while "Pizzeria Avanti", just off Tapas Alley specialize in pizza and pasta – because not everyone wants Spanish food!. The pizzas are baked in a real wood burner and as you enter the restaurant you walk over a glass floor, underneath which all the logs are stored for the pizza oven!.

Fab Benidorm Restaurants
Opened in 1998, Avanti has been telling its Italian story for over quarter of a century now. We arrived late to the party, having our first meal there in 2004. But since then whenever the pizza and pasta bug takes hold a table for two at Avanti is always the cure.
