"My family has been eating at La Familia since it opened in 1975 and it has been run by the same family. The food is always excellent and the friendly service on point. During the winter months you can’t miss the cous-cous served every Wednesday. (A reservation is a must)"

"Fenomenal. El primer día de vacaciones en Alicante siempre lo dedicamos a comer aquí. Deliciosos los espaguetis frutti di mare, carbonara y los de cigalas (los mejores), que repetimos cada año. Trato de los camareros excepcional. Precio con bebidas sobre 20 euros por persona, pero raciones inmensas! Le pongo un 9. Con pasta fresca sería de 10!!!"
