Family dining at Alejandro’s in La Zenia

We recently stopped by Alejandro’s Bar & Restaurant in La Zenia, and it’s easy to see why this family-run restaurant has been such a popular choice since opening its doors in 1999.

From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Whether you are popping in for breakfast, lunch, dinner or just a drink on the terrace, there is a genuine family feel about the place.

We tried the Menu del Dia, available daily from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM, and at €14.90 it offers excellent value. You choose a starter and a main course, followed by dessert or coffee, with a small beer, wine or soft drink included.

There was plenty of choice, from homemade soup, bruschetta or a fresh mixed salad to mains including spaghetti bolognese, lasagne, chicken schnitzel with chips and vegetables, chicken curry with rice, pork medallions in mushroom sauce or one of Alejandro’s pizzas. Desserts included mixed ice cream, apple strudel or coffee.

The food was freshly prepared, generously portioned and served by friendly staff who clearly take pride in looking after their customers.

Great value and weekly specials

Another reason to visit is the restaurant’s popular Wednesday Schnitzel Day, when freshly cooked schnitzels are served for just €13.90. It’s one of their busiest days, so booking ahead is recommended.

Alongside its daily set menu, Alejandro’s offers an extensive à la carte selection, giving diners plenty of choice whether they are looking for a quick lunch, an evening meal with friends or a relaxed family dinner.
