Reviews Summary
La Palmera Sur is lauded for its innovative Spanish tapas with Asian influences and impeccable presentation, creating a delightful culinary experience. Diners rave about signature dishes like soft crab bao buns and lamb meatballs, alongside the child-friendly atmosphere and excellent service. However, some reviews mention high prices and occasional inconsistencies in service quality or flavor balance.
"While it was one of the more expansive meals we had on our trip it certainly was one of the best! Very quiet and chill place for lunch. We shared 4 tapas with two glasses of wine each and it neared €100 for it all.
Really incredible food here. The soft crab bao buns were delicious, loved the pulled pork tacos and the lamb meatballs in curry sauce. The Arepas were nice however a bit dry, great flavour.
Would highly recommend for a change in the usual tapas you see about."

"Food is really good although we would have liked to see more variety in the menu given the duration between our previous visits. Really odd to see a couple eating a pizza in the restaurant before the main service, I wouldn’t have minded but was not on the menu it looked really good. Service started well but was let down by a young lady who lacked any customer empathy. Atmosphere is only marked as poor due to the obnoxious behaviour of a group of 4 who were not controlled by the team. Disappointing overall but worthy of a visit just to try the wonderful creations. Aubergine crisps are a delight."
Andrew Brown
"This restaurant is located just right next to the Gold Hotel. The atmosphere is relaxed. The concept is around smaller dishes meant for sharing. The menu covers all sorts of styles, from fish tartars and meat options to vegetarian plates and desserts. We ordered the bread with local spreads, ceviche, duck gyoza, and stuffed arepas.
Presentation-wise, everything looked really appealing, but flavor-wise it didn’t quite match the high prices and our fine dining expectations. The ceviche lacked acidity and had too much mayo for my taste, and the arepas felt a bit too greasy.
On the upside, the service was excellent, and the ingredients were clearly very good.
Still, the overall food quality didn’t meet my expectations, so I found the value for money not good enough."

Inside the Gold by Marina hotel we also have another of the best restaurants in Playa del Inglés: the South Palm Tree. It has a varied gastronomic offer similar to the Allende restaurant, although perhaps somewhat more sophisticated and elaborate, therefore, higher price. At least that's what it seemed to us when we went.
