Casa García

Asilah


Spanish-style seafood dishes are the speciality at this popular marine-themed restaurant a couple of streets back from the beach. Expect staples such as grilled sardines, seafood paella and deep-fried calamari, along with the catch-of-the-day. The restaurant is cavernous and can get noisy but the breezy terrace is a pleasant place to while away an evening with a bottle of wine.
