You'll never be stuck for a place to eat in Torrevieja at pretty much any time of the day. Here's a selection of a few quite popular resturants, as you can see there's something for all tastes.

• Restaurante El Muelle (general)  -  Paseo Maritimo Juan Aparicio
  Nicely located on Torrevieja's sea front, and with an attractive dark red colour scheme. A wide selection of dishes ranging from pizzas to quality steaks and seafood. Typical meal for two would range from 28 to 35 euros.
• Pizza Nostra (pizzas / general)  -  Plaza Castelar
  The central location, good quality food and excellent service make this restuarant a winner every time! Although specialising in pizzas there's a varied selection of dishes ranging from swordfish steak to pasta. A piece of advice if you plan to go on a Saturday night... "arrive early!"
• Restuarante Vegeteriano (Vegetarian)  -  Calle Pedro Lorca
  Generally speaking vegetarians aren't that well catered for in Spain however here you'll find a good quality restuarant centrally located that does just that! It's been in business for many years now and a meal for two would cost anything between 15 and 25 euros.
• Nuevo Siglo (Chinese)  -  Calle Maestro Francisco Casanovas
  One of several Chinese restuarants in Torrevieja, relatively new and situated slightly out of the town centre. Unlike in the UK the set menu price is for everyone in your group as opposed to "per person". Set menu for 3 is 33.75 euros, for 4 is 45.95 euros and 5 is 56.95 euros .
• Taj Mahal (Indian)  -  Calle Los Emilios
  One of the few Indian restuarants in Torrevieja. Unusual in that it's located away from the town centre in a largely residential area. Typical meal for two would be between 30 and 35 euros.
• La Pergola (Italian)  -  Paseo Maritimo Juan Aparicio
  Again nice location on Torrevieja's sea front, further down from Restuarante El Muelle going towards Playa del Cura (one of Torrevieja's three beaches). A quality meal for two at this Italian restuarant can be had for under 30 euros.
• Buffet Libre (general)  -  Calle Almudena
  This is a help yourself buffet. Pay at the door as you go in then you can eat as much as you like. Great value and great quality. Adults pay 7.50 euros and children 5 euros, although drinks aren't included in that price. Food items range from paella to all types of fish and meats. Very popular with the Spanish in Torrevieja.
• Casa Paco (seafood)  -  Calle Canoningo Torres
  A break from the norm but again great value and great quality. Casa Paco is a long running open air establishment. Paco specialises in freshly grilled seafood mainly sardines and large king prawns. Needless to say it's popular with the Spanish.
