- Why go?
- The location is half the fun. Bad Ass Bistro sits right on Plaza del Yate, a small traditional Andalusian square that feels a world away from the busier parts of Fuengirola. Add a cosy patio, friendly service and a menu designed for sharing, and it is an easy place for a mixed group to agree on dinner.
- What to order
- Go for a few things and share. The sticky and sweet pork ribs, mini burger trio, teriyaki tuna and tempura prawns are good options for the table. Add some patatas bravas or the wild mushroom risotto and let everyone pick their favourites.
- Good to know
- The menu uses the Spanish idea of "raciones", meaning smaller portions designed to mix, match and share. This makes it especially handy when everyone at the table wants something different. The outdoor tables on the square are a big part of the appeal.
- Local fact
- Bad Ass Bistro was created by chef and owner Paul Crumpler, whose cooking style is inspired by his travels. The result is a globally influenced menu with Spanish-style sharing portions, served from a cosy Andalusian patio on Plaza del Yate.
- Open
