Reviews Summary
Restaurant Mesón de los Arcos is praised for its friendly service, generous portions, and excellent value. While many rave about the seafood and paella, some find the pizza to be average in quality. The welcoming atmosphere and attentive staff contribute to a positive dining experience for families and friends alike.
"We had a really decent steak meal at this friendly family run restaurant in Blanes yesterday.
The food was perfect, the service was perfect, and the ambience was perfect💯
If you're ever in Blanes then this is this the place to eat! They specialise in many different types of Paella, and they do many other tempting dishes too, including perfectly cooked steaks of course🥩🥘👌
This is the second time I've eaten here and both times my food was perfectly cooked with extremely fresh ingredients, and both times I was made to feel welcome by the lovely staff who gave the restaurant the happiest of vibes❤️
The restaurant itself is set appropriately 50 metres from the beautiful Blanes beach, and has outdoor seating as well as indoor seating🍽🏖
The toilets were very clean, as was the whole restaurant. In fact, I couldn't find fault with this lovely restaurant whatsoever! This is why it is always busy and always buzzing with a great vibe I expect💯👌
I cant wait to return tomorrow to try out one of there delicious looking paella, and maybe a few of their thirst quenching cocktails too😃⏳️
The El Méson de Los Arcos definitely has to go onto my Google reviews page, and as one of my highly recommended places to eat💯"

"pizza was really small (and for this small piece it was like 14€) and pizza was without crust, we ordered quattro formaggi but it was more like only niva cheese on it, but the service was so nice and sweet!!"

"Good local food, not on the main drag so more relaxed place to eat. Slightly more expensive but food was nice."

09/10/2024: Nos alojamos aquí por las buenas críticas de otros huéspedes. Desafortunadamente, aparentemente no tuvimos suerte con nuestra paella de marisco. El marisco se cocinó completamente seco y toda la comida estaba demasiado condimentada y demasiado salada.
