La Antigua Sidrería

Benidorm


This popular basement space has had a recent change of direction and now offers an open kitchen serving modern, upmarket, Basque-inflected fare with quality meat dishes – some premium ox steaks are available – and creative, elaborate tapas portions. It's part of the group that seems to own much of this convivial eat street.
