"Restaurante que ha cambiado de dueño y creo que a mejor. La comida bastante buena, un poco escasas las raciones pero por el precio que tienen está bien. El trato de los camareros perfecto, amables, agradables y profesionales. Solemos ir a este restaurante todos los veranos y es de los mejores cambios que ha tenido en los últimos años."

"Meri is a new restaurant in Nerja which serves simple, elegant food well. The staff are friendly and welcoming. We had arrived in the town earlier that day and it was so lovely to have such a wonderful meal as our first of the holiday. I started our meal with a Gazpacho, the taste of Southern Spain for me. It was delicious. My partner opted for croquetas de pollo which he really enjoyed. For mains I chose the oven roasted half chicken, which came served with papas a la pobre. The chicken was very juicy, and surprisingly tasty. My partner choose Hambergesa Club which came with chips – he loved his burger, the bacon was crispy the egg runny and the burger meat was juicy - perfect. I know after this experience that we will be back again before the end of the holiday."
