We can't classify this restaurant more than average in all aspects, food was OK but lacking in flavour & seasoning. There were four of us in the group & our German friend said that her stuffed chicken was like 'a meal in an old person's...residential home', very bland. I had a skewer of chicken tandoori, which, quite frankly, was boring, tasted nothing like tandoori & I had to order some spicy sauce to give it some flavour. Nowhere throughout the meal were we asked if everything was OK. or we could have voiced our opinion.More

Excellent meal. We just had main courses but all of us were delighted with our choices. Friendly and efficient service and complementary brandy on the house is always a nice gesture.

Really disappointed in this restaurant. Most of the food was mediocre at best, but the “secret cut” Iberian pork was over cooked, dry and barely edible. Didn’t complain as visiting friends were paying for the meal. Service was slow and inattentive. Nobody asked if we...had enjoyed any of our two courses. Skipped desert as we had lost faith by then. We will definitely not return.More

Spent the night here with the wife last night, good service, good food, reasonable prices.. not my favourite as too much of a british hangout (i'm british btw)... prefer spanish clientel . but certainly a place I'd revisit...

Lovely welcome, friendly staff, delicious food and wonderful service! Stunning traditional restaurant, plenty of rustic charm and a beautiful table setting for my Birthday too! A very special evening all round, we'll be back next year! Thank you...

Just the most amazing location set in the side of the mountain and overlooking Competa. Beautiful interior and amazing terrace with superb menu. Lots of steps to negotiate but my son (currently on crutches with a rugby injury) said it was well worth the effort...!More

Headed there on a Monday evening with my partner and another couple. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. The restaurant inside is lovely. It can be quite busy, so would advise booking in advance.

This place is incredible. The interior is lovely with a real old-school charm, the food is varied and delicious, the wine list is great, and the cocktails they make are probably the best I’ve ever had. The staff are very friendly and the service is...great. I have dined here a number of times when visiting Competa, most recently in August 2022. We came here for my wife’s birthday, and without being asked the staff had already arranged a banner and decorated the table for us. We were also given complimentary drinks upon arrival. As with every visit, the food was outstanding. For me, it doesn’t get any better than this. I can’t recommend El Pilon highly enough.More

Thus was our third time visiting this restaurant in 4 years and we weren’t disappointed. The food, view and service were great. We will be back.

We love El Pilon and have been visiting it for many years. It is a very special place for us and we have had many happy times there. This visit was for my birthday and they made it such a lovely occasion, greeting us with...special cocktails and decorating our table with balloons & banners. The food was, as always, excellent with a great selection for both the the vegetarian & vegan in our group. The staff work so hard to make sure everything is right & take such good care of their customers. The location is outstanding too. No better place to watch the beautiful sunsets while enjoying fabulous wine & food. We can’t wait for our next visit. Thank you El Pilon for another wonderful evening xMore

Prides itself on its authentic grill. Lovely if you like roadkill cooked badly. Luckily, the service is equally dodgy and they do not care. Go somewhere else!More

Sorry. This is not a good restaurant. They have become so complacent that they have taken their customers for granted. Caesar salad with no dressing, grated Parmesan and a few anchovies does not make it a Caesar salad.Inedible steak that we refused to pay for....Advise anyone else to do the same if they are not happy otherwise they will continue with turning out substandard food. Just really really average. Seriously need to up their game. Absolutely not good enough. One star is generous.More
