Chiringuito Antonio

Chiringuito Antonio — a long-running beach restaurant on Playa de Poniente famous for espetos de sardinas grilled over a driftwood fire.

Updated 25 June 2026

If you only eat at one chiringuito in Torre del Mar, this is a fair default. Antonio's keeps the espeto fire running through service and the sardines come straight off the skewer, salted, with half a lemon.

Beyond espetos, the fried fish (pescaíto frito), grilled prawns and ensalada malagueña are the safe orders. Wine is local, served cold and cheap.
