In this guide, I will share what I consider to be the best restaurants at Gandía Beach.

If you are in Gandía and want to try authentic Valencian cuisine, Chef Amadeo Restaurant is an ideal choice. Known for its delicious rice dishes and fideuàs, it is very popular with both locals and visitors.
Here is why it is worth visiting.

One of the best things about Chef Amadeo Restaurant is that it offers high-quality food at reasonable prices. Dishes range from €10 to €50, and quality is excellent.
Here you can enjoy traditional dishes such as arroz a banda or Valencian paella, all prepared with fresh local ingredients.

Creamy rice with lobster

Fried fish
