De Locos

Best tapas of the trip so far — in Ronda — on the recommendation of our friendly hotel owner. Just four tables, plus two outside, with incredible food coming from an impossibly small kitchen and an owner/​host who will have you laughing (and eating and drinking) all night. The kitchen is run by his wife who is an absolute master of preparation.
If you go to Ronda, try De Locos! You will not be disappointed.

You have one day in Ronda? This place is the must for tapas. Call ahead and speak to the Owner Guillermo who is a gentleman and a real foodie that loves to make you feel at home. The place is small and the locals all frequent the place — it sells out if you don’t call ahead. The location is perfect and is an experience that you won’t forget.

Nice place, tapas are 2 — 5 euro. Small in size but made with fantasy! Great service! We can recommend this place to everybody visiting Ronda!

One of the best meal experiences of my life. Myself and three dinner partners went through four rounds of tapas with anywhere from 3 – 5 dishes per round. We were guided by the husband of the dynamic duo who run the place by themselves. He reminded me of a Spanish Craig Ferguson; incredibly charming and ridiculously charismatic. He made numerous recommendations to help guide us through the menu that changes nightly, and also helped us through the wine list while giving us a brief tutorial on the different local producing regions.
The food itself was fantastic. Squid, duck breast, foie gras, pork belly, and oxtail were some of the standouts.
This was by far the best meal of our 9 day adventure through Spain, and also the greatest value. The four of us ate until we were ready to burst while going through three excellent bottles of Rioja for only 150EU
This place is a must if you visit Ronda and can reserve a table far enough ahead of time (only four tables).

Buenisimas las tapitas!!! Y el trato genial. Sitio pequeñito y acogedor… sin duda para repetir.

Worth going to Ronda just to eat at this place. Absolutely one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. The owner is an absolute genius with food and the presentation is phenomenal. You should definitely make a reservation as this place is tiny and very popular. You can make a reservation online at their website and they respond fairly quickly.

Came upon this place on a hotel employee suggestion. We arrived at 1930, only to be advised by the owner that it would open at 2000, since he had to change! So we waited for a half hour, and out he comes in a clean getup waving us in. Small charming restaurant with some of the best tapas we have ever had. There are no written menus, since the selection varies daily. For each table, the owner would walk by and list out the 20 or so items for the day. If the pork cheeks ever come up during your visit — get them! Also had the salmon (just like lox, but better), bacalao, and many, many, others. We really wish we had stayed in Ronda for longer, so we can try more the next day.
