Alicante Restaurants

The city of Alicante houses a diverse selection of restaurants, ranging from typical fast food outlets, international delicacies, to the traditional exquisite Spanish cuisine and lively Tapas bars. The most famous dish in Alicante is the seafood favourite, Paella, and if not all, the majority of the Mediterranean themed restaurants offer this delicious dish.

More expensive restaurants are mostly located either near the tourist attractions or the port (El Puerto) or beaches. However, a lot of reasonably priced restaurants still provide excellent food, wine and service. The quieter neighbourhoods offer a significant amount of low budget restaurants, which are worth a visit.
