La Conchiglia
Ristorante La Conchiglia
Where everyone goes! 
Opens daily 11-3pm
6pm-12am

Unassuming Exterior
This is just the front section. The back section probably about twice the capacity.
New location, new joint that everyone seems to gravitate towards.
Great space, air-conditioned, value and simple prices that is perfect for sharing!
Note the ciesta timings like most places. Closed from 3pm-6pm.
Kitchen closes at 1430hrs and all must be out by 3pm so take note!
ABBATIP:
-
There is a 2Euro table linen surcharge ONLY For EVENING service.
- Limited English at the restaurant but can get by. They are very flexible with custom orders as it seems. E.g. swapping of rice for pasta choices and requesting a white wine sauce. 

Click here for ABBA location of La ConchigliA rough estimate of prices as of Jun23

- Lobster pasta €15max (Pastas are all generally around the 10Euro range and the clam shells seafood one have been amazing)
- Florentina for 2 €35 (Best Florentina Steak still goes to Zazas.)
- Small side €3.50 each
- Pizzas €6.50-7.50range and HUGE. Its even larger that the face of the plate and worth. Their options are hugely extensive.
- Fried stuff all about €14max (The fried squid dishes were a miss. Avoid)
- Dessert all at a simple pricing of €4.50 (The Tiramisu is the sure winner. The ice-creams were a little too sweet and the Creme Brulee custard wasn't set.)
Nice with big group setting and perfect for sharing.

Ordered On:
22-24June23
Linguine La Conchiglia (Crab, loster, scampi, prawns) 15Euro
Portions are huge and the Pasta doesn't feel overly heavy that you'd leave the generous portions of pasta on the place. Table side bread and spicy and plain olive oil were both a welcoming starter to the carb heavy meal.
Tiramisu 4.50Euro
*Light, delectable and a classic must order. Will try other dessert the next time round.*
Flat Water 1.50Euro
*Frutto Di Mare pasta and Risotto. Both excellent. The Risotto is very filling and another excellent for sharing.* 
*Pizzas are huge! Larger than the plate itself and always a crowd please*
*Special shout out to the squid ink pasta! Great flavor and not just a coloring*
*Vongole with request of white wine sauce done on demand.*
*Including a dessert each, For sharing and paid only 18.80Euro Each*
Ambience 3/5
*
Nothing special but its fantastic for big groups to visit to order to share.*
Food 4/5
Service 3.5/5
Value 4.5/5
Considering its 10years since the last lobster pasta place and prices here are even cheaper compared to that. Its a great value location to get a standing ovation, repeated visits as it turns out over there days!
