La Mar Salá

-A must-try classic in Cartagena- At La Mar Sala, we enjoyed an excellent meal, with generously portioned dishes full of flavor. We tried everything from grilled cured cheese with honey and nuts to delicious homemade croquettes, as well as flavorful Cartagena octopus and crispy, yet not greasy, calamari. Also worth mentioning were the Iberian pork secret toasts and the sandwiches (tomato and pork loin, Malasombra, and Gloria Bendita), all different and very original, perfect for sharing. The service was fast and very friendly throughout, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The value for money is very good, and the atmosphere is that of a charming neighborhood bar, ideal for tapas in Cartagena. A place to definitely return to, whether for a meal with friends or a more informal stop. Highly recommended.

I go often because they have fresh fish and seafood at a reasonable price and generous portions. Also, you can't leave without trying the best croquettes in all of Cartagena, the cuttlefish and the shrimp, they are a delicacy!! And homemade desserts, like torrija with ice cream.😋 The staff is lovely, hard-working and friendly people.

If you add the excellent quality of the food to the attentive, professional, and friendly staff, the result is unbeatable. All thanks to its owner, Miguel Marín, a true professional and an even better person!

The food was excellent value for money, and the service was very friendly. We ordered two seafood dishes, garlic shrimp, grilled cuttlefish, sea salt pan-fried, and for dessert, sea salt cake and whisky cake. All were very good.

Very special, location, atmosphere and attention!! Excellent food

Very nice service and food. Fresh seafood dishes, as the name suggests, from salads to octopus to sandwiches. We tried everything we could, and the price was great too. A friend had a birthday, and they brought us a cake to celebrate. Wonderful service, thank you so much for everything!

100% recommended. Attentive and friendly service. We ordered some baby squid and fried cheese to share, then the sirloin, fried eggs, and Caesar salad, and everything was delicious! Large portions, we couldn't finish everything 😅 but everything was delicious! We'll be back! 🤤

An unforgettable gastronomic experience! From the moment you walk through the door, you know you are somewhere special. The attention of the staff is impeccable: friendly, attentive and always with a smile. The food... simply spectacular! Each dish is an explosion of flavors, with careful presentation in detail and products of the highest quality. The atmosphere is cozy, elegant and with a perfect atmosphere to enjoy as a couple, with friends or family. Without a doubt, one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. I will return a thousand times more!

I've been there twice and I highly recommend it. The food is delicious, high-quality, and cooked to perfection. The service is excellent.

I was quite surprised; the portions are quite large compared to other places. Honestly, not knowing what the portions were like, we overordered... hehe. We loved everything: the Octopus Cartagena style was spectacular, the foie gras toast with sirloin and cranberry jam was exquisite. The tomatoes with tuna were delicious. We'll be back.

The food was delicious, I highly recommend the fried fish. The terrace with the fans was quite pleasant, and it was cool. I would definitely go back.
