"One of our favorites in Jávea! Delicious food from Latin American to Asian at Chola Gastrobar. We love the Korean Nem, the bao buns, the Tuétano with tuna, the Ceviche and the yuca with guacamole; all so good! The friendly service and the good wines complete the experience!"

"Food was excellent value, both taste & value. Had to minus one star though for the weird system they had, as our group wanted to have one main course each (as we assumed these weren't sharing dishes), they were brought in one by one so we weren't able to eat on the same time. Other than that it was a lovely experience and will definitely return."

"This place is fantastic. The owner is also very kind. If you want to try something just tell him what you don’t eat and ask him to surprise you. Total bill 53€ including 2 glasses of white wine. This place is honestly a must try in old Xàbia."

"Chola is a top spot to go to in Xabía. The rustic decor and setting let you enjoy a delicious dinner in cozy, relaxing, and quiet surroundings. All though there are other options, red tuna is what you come to Chola for - and it is exclusive."
