Overview

Andino Gastrobar - Huelin offers a vibrant taste of South America right in the heart of Málaga, situated conveniently on C. Tomás Echeverría, near Carretera de Cádiz. This charming spot blends Mexican, Peruvian, Colombian, and Venezuelan influences into a rich and diverse menu that caters to lovers of authentic, flavorful cuisine.

The main dishes at Andino resonate with the essence of their regions of origin. The ceviche stands out as dangerously delicious, fresh and perfectly balanced with bright citrus notes. Equally impressive is the Lomo Saltado Peruano, a heartwarming stir-fry that delivers robust, savory flavors. Venezuelan Arepas and Mexican Quesadillas, including a vegan option, add variety and depth, embracing both meat lovers and plant-based diners. Fans of rich, layered tastes will appreciate the Nachos de Pollo and the Chorrillana Veggie, each crafted with attention to texture and seasoning.

What makes this gastrobar truly inviting is the atmosphere. It marries a cozy and lively vibe with attentive service that is warm without being intrusive. The staff’s genuine friendliness enhances the experience, welcoming families with young children and even their canine companions. Background Salsa hits set a perfect soundtrack, drawing diners into a relaxed yet spirited mood.

Andino is ideal for a casual meal after a beach day or a special night out, appealing to a diverse audience—from locals seeking comfort food with a twist to international visitors craving authentic South American flavors in Andalusia. Their beverage menu complements the food beautifully, especially the refreshing mango mojito and mint lemonade, both praised for their balance and originality.

Portion sizes are generous, leaving guests fully satisfied without over-indulgence, and the freshness of ingredients shines through every dish. The place is a gem for those who value both culinary craft and heartfelt hospitality, creating a memorable dining experience that stays with you long after the last bite.

I had a wonderful experience at Andino! The restaurant offers a great mix of cuisines, with the Colombian dishes being especially flavorful and authentic. The atmosphere is cozy yet vibrant, making it perfect for both a casual night out or a special dinner. The staff is very friendly and positive, which makes the whole visit even more enjoyable. I also have to mention their mojito Mango flavour– it was refreshing, perfectly balanced, and probably one of the best I’ve had in a long time. Definitely a place worth visiting if you want to enjoy delicious food and great drinks in a welcoming setting!

Peligroso! Like a hungry dog, I had my entire face halfway into a bowl of ceviche when the server came and asked how the food was and I gleefully giggled to myself and mumbled… Peligroso. Dangerously delicious. We came in for an early Sunday lunch and were greeted by friendly staff who seated us. Music playing what can best be described as Salsa greatest hits of all times, perfectly setting the mood for me but let’s not linger on descriptive poetry of this cute little restaurant and get down to business. We tried a bunch of different dishes to share across the table; Tequeños, ceviche, patacones, nachos, arepas, quesadillas - all with a wide variety of textures, flavors and interesting configurations tickling different parts of my pallet. I could not possibly pick a favorite! I feel like they all deserved recognition, apart from the beans of the Arepa which had just a bit too much salt that distracted from the otherwise perfectly assembled Symphony of flavors. Oh and the mint lemonade - an absolutely huge hit with both young and old. Like a very innocent Mojito. The service was very pleasant without being neither overbearing nor neglectful and even our dog was welcomed with a bowl of water under the table. Across from us were a family with a small child who immediately were assisted with a booster seat and as a parent, seeing that attentiveness and genuinely perceived kindness and accommodation, yes even when a drink is spilled across the table and the floor… it’s in these details the difference between just eating and actually having an experience. Other restaurants have a lot to learn from both the menu and the mannerisms of this establishment. I suspect perhaps the person serving us was the owner or was at least a very accommodating and knowledgeable person who seemed genuinely interested in the food that was being served and for me who eat from the heart, it was a lovely addition to the delicious food.

We stayed 10 minutes from this place and didn’t want to go to the centre for dinner so decided to come here and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. The food is phenomenal, the servers are chatty and they make you feel welcomed. We got the pulled beef tacos, prawn empanadas, quesadillas and they were all very flavourful. If you’re coming back from the beach this is a great spot only a few minutes from there.

The food here is a great fusion of South American, with flavours from Mexican to Peru to Chile. The nachos were so delicious, that I had to make a second order. The tostosonos were fresh and not too oily and paired great with the meat and avocado. They use the green peppers in a very subtle yet delicious way. I really recommend this restaurant to anyone craving some Mexican food, but with a harmonious twist from south America here in Andalusia.

We had dinner there last night and the food was incredible. It was honestly the best restaurant I’ve eaten at so far. The prices were fair, the portions were generous and everything was simply delicious. I can highly recommend the pulled beef tacos as a starter and then the Plato Centroamericano with pulled beef as a main. Make sure to try the homemade lemonade too – it’s huge and really tasty. I’d definitely come back again!

Fantastic South American restaurant! The beef tacos and empanadas were our favorites. I loved that the margaritas weren't too sweet. The live music on Friday night added to the great atmosphere, and the tapas prices were reasonable. Definitely recommend!

Very cute and original sud American restaurant. Authentic recipes from all over the Sudamerica. Freshly squeezed juice was superb, good wine and nicely decorated healthy food. Server Julie was very pleasant, too.
