We visited The Orange Tree on a Saturday evening on a recent visit to Marbella. The restaurant was recommended by owner of the hotel we stayed in, we had also read some of the reviews on here. The food was excellent, the staff were friendly but unfortunately we chose to sit inside and we found it very noisy; mostly because... More

We were a group of 10 ladies and enjoyed the meal. Very friendly staff but when the bill came there were extra charges but the one that surprised us was the 10% charge for being a group of ten. we inquired about this with our Spanish host and apparently this is illegal, what a shame.

Stumbled across this restaurant whilst visiting (from 30 miles up the coast) Marbella for the evening. It was a great find. A good menu and perfectly cooked food of a high standard. The staff were very friendly. The experience was so good, we booked again for two nights later. The second visit was equally as good. I would highly recommend... More

Was here last Thursday night. The food is fantastic and very reasonable for the location. The restaurant is small and the tables are very close together, so not the place for an intimate evening. Frank is the boss-- talks incessently and intrudes into the evening. A great "character" no doubt,but he would do better to calm down. Some people might... More

Just off the main Orange Square in Marbella is the Orange Tree Restaurant. It was just fantastic. We only ordered a main course but were presented with a complementary taster of the starter and some home made bread which was delicious. The food was devine and the staff simply outstanding - do not miss this restaurant if you visit Marbella... More

We met Frank, the owner of the orange tree, in a bar which he owns. Frank is a great character and convinced us, after several brandys, that the orange tree was the place to eat in Marbella. So the following night we went and we have to agree with Frank - it was fantastic. Every course was great, the wine... More

by the welcome, food, service and atmosphere. Despite us visiting on a Thursday night in April, this place could have been the busiest restaurant in Marbella. This only added to the attraction, as it in no way detracted from the evening. All our starters were polished off to much acclaim, and their signature Irish Beef fillet steak was cooked to... More

We ordered the rack of lamb & fillet beef steak as mains, cooked & presented superbly, best steak I've had for along time & the lamb was cooked to perfection. We were offered a complimentary starter soup & homemade bread which was lovely. We ordered the raspberry cheesecake for dessert that more than lived up to the rest of the... More

Three of us tried the set menu; we all had a different starter and mains, all of which were excellent. The portions were big and only two could muster a dessert. My only negative observation is that we paid as much as at ZoZoi were we had dinner the previous evening and that was still a different class.
