We've been here before. It was during Covid. But at that time life in Spain was still going on and all restaurants and shops open. But still only few people around anyways. This time Laredo was a busy place and so was this restaurant. It was completely booked. Lucky we made a reservation the day before.
First time around this restaurant was nothing short of amazing. And: It still is! Absolute perfection.
We ordered a bottle of wine. "12 Lineages Gran Vino Rueda". A fantastic wine. A fruity, golden-coloured wine. Got a plate of ham croquetas, a plate of grilled shrimp, a plate of clams (almejas). And also an item that we've had last time, but wasn't on the menu. But it was available anyways: Foie Gras.
All dishes were amazing. The shrimp cooked to perfection with wonderful grill flavours. The croquetas was nice and creamy inside. The Foie Gras still one of the very best around. And nicely sized. A great suprise were the clams. Nice sized clams with a sauce to die for. Broth, oil, garlic and herbs. Divine.
Staff was great as well. The guy who took the reservation came to say hello as well. Great people all around.
It's still one of the very best restaurants we know in Spain. Or anywhere. High quality food. Fair prices. Great staff. What's not to like. And our Bulldog was welcome here as well. Highly recommended. read more
