The restaurant we visited on 6 occasions is on the Burriana Beach and not the Calle Diputacion Provincial. It was invariably well patronised which is always a good sign and in fact you need to book for Saturdays. The food was consistently good despite a tendency to over-cook the vegetables. However the quantities were large, the flavours good, the menu... More

We ate there 3 times in a week - only fault was we couldn't eat the huge portions! Menu del dia is such good value. Special mention is that one of our group had been ill and missed supper and they provided us with a take away even though they were closing - Thanks Miguel, Janet and Graham, we all... More

This was our 4th visit to JJ's cafe on Burriana Beach. My partner had the burger with bacon and cheese again....... (for the record this is all he has ever eaten on the previous visits) it was served, with a separate bowl of chips and coleslaw, (the coleslaw has red cabbage in it, which adds a nice twist) as ever...

Important (for Tripadvisor) - Please correct the address - this restaurant is not JJ Pizzeria in Calle Diputacion (as indicated by several other reviewers in other recent reviews in Tripadvisor) but it is at "Paseo de Burriana, Burriana, Beach, Nerja" - telephone 952 525 194. It's correct name (for several years) is JJ's Cafe del Mar (they used to own... More

This is one of our favourite places to eat when visiting Nerja. The staff, Miguel, Janet and Graham are friendly, the atmosphere is relaxed and the food and service cannot be faulted. The one thing which is noticeable when dining here is that the customers are regular diners.........once you try this place you will come back again and again More

I first visited this restaurant on Burriana Beach nine years ago then again a couple of years later when it was still run by the friendly John and Richard who always made you welcome and made you feel they had all the time in the world for you. Although reading on their site three years ago they were shutting up... More
