Piripi

Alicante


This quality restaurant is strong on rice, seafood and fish, which arrives fresh daily from the wholesale markets of Dénia and Santa Pola. There’s a huge variety of tapas and a valenciano speciality that changes daily. It’s a short walk west of the centre or downhill from the train station.
