La Terrazica del Galán

La Terrazica del Galán is a restaurant with a terrace facing the Mar Menor, on the ground floor of the Torre Riviera 1 residential development, at km 7 of La Manga. Sunset is its main attraction: it appears in dozens of reviews because the terrace faces west and the sun sets over the lagoon right in front of the tables.

A traditional menu with a different presentation

The cooking gives familiar dishes a twist, and several reviews praise the preparation and presentation. The dishes customers mention most:

• Octopus
• Croquetas (croquettes)
• Artichokes
• King prawns
• Fillet steak

The cocktails have a good reputation, so it also works well for a drink in the early evening without dinner.

Elevated views and good service

Reviews clearly agree on the positives: the terrace, the breeze from the Mar Menor and friendly service, with octopus and croquettes the most frequently mentioned dishes.

Opening hours, reservations and access

On Mondays and Tuesdays it opens only for dinner; from Wednesday to Sunday it also serves lunch, with the same hours shown in this listing and on Google. Sunset is the most popular time, and in summer it is worth booking well ahead. The entrance is wheelchair-accessible. Google lists its address as San Javier, the municipality to which this stretch of La Manga belongs. To compare other places overlooking the lagoon, see the restaurants in La Manga.
