"Such amazing food and service! Highly recommend you come hungry because the portions are big! The sangria blanc is so delicious too!"
Alicia McLelland
"Delicious and a good selection of food items – consisting of Spanish, Italian & Mexican cuisine.
We ordered the mushroom risotto & chicken quesadillas, both were delicious.
The ambience is great and so is their service. I didn't expect a restaurant so close to the tourist centre to be this good.
They were packed around 9 pm, so we had to wait 25 minutes to get a table."
Darshan Gajara
"Food was excellent, service was amazing and they were able to accommodate a large group - wonderful atmosphere as well!"

Essential Alicante, Spain: 8 Things to Do & See
La Crispeta is one of my favorites simply for the quality of the food. I suggest ordering the patatas bravas (these are offered almost everywhere, but La Crispeta’s are the best I’ve had), alitas picantes (hot wings), goat cheese with honey and nuts, and the octopus. The restaurant isn’t overly expensive, but it still has a classy ambience that’s good for a date or just dining with friends and family.
