Beautiful restaurant known for its Cuchinillo. Went here after a tour of the Alcazar and Segovia…read moreCathedral. It's a little off the Plaza Mayor. The restaurant is huge inside, plenty of rooms with dining spaces. There's beautiful art, one with broken plates that was really cool. There is a server right in front constantly slicing thin pieces of Iberico Jamon. The service is fun, friendly and accommodating. Interesting to note that there's a small side table next to each dining table for the cuchinillo. Tables have fine china, wine glasses and white table cloth linen---very classy. Yet the atmosphere is casual and friendly. The Cuchinillo is served with jus. It's clean tasting, meat tender and juices. The skin is crispy. It's worth the price! We had a grilled squid which was also good. We shared a strawberry panna cotta which was delicious. Great place!

My hubby and I had lunch here. The main restaurant was full so we were whisked to the building in…read morethe back area. This area with white linen table cloths seems more private with limited seating. It felt very exclusive. We ordered their traditionally prepared cuchinillo, grilled vege platter, tiramisu with toffee, coffee ice cream with amaretto jelly and the traditional layered cake with vanilla cream and ice cream, capuccino and a glass of red wine. The service was impeccably attentive. When it was time to cut the roast pig, the owner, Jose Maria appeared. We were gathered around to watch him deftly cut the pig with a plate into several servings. The cuchinillo was perfectly seasoned. The skin was thin and crispy and the flesh was moist and melt in your mouth tender. Everything we ordered was delicious! Later on, Jose Maria came to our table for a short chat and to indulge us with a few picture with him. This was a really special experience.

Very good local cuisine. The suckling pig is a local tradition and did not disappoint. I really…read moreenjoyed the Castilian soup. Very warm and cozy atmosphere. The wait staff is friendly but made an error when forgetting to bring my husband's main course. The quality of his white bean soup made up for it. I love the antique looking entry to the restaurant.

Since 1895 this restaurant has been serving delights of Spain to customers. We arrived a little…read morebefore 14:00 and the crowd, so we had choice seating. Staff were gracious and welcoming to two tourists. Cochinillo was sublime. Whole suckling pig is roasted so the skin is crisp on the surfaces, but moist and flavorful next to the meat. You are served an ample portion of the ribcage. At this age many of the small ribs have not calcified, so they are tender to chew. Succulent and delicious. Tripa are also cooked low and slow so they melt on your tongue. Sauce is majestic. Our waiter was very cordial and we took his advice to close with the ponche, and we were very glad we did. A soufflée with a wisp of orange zest in the ice cream was the perfect closer. Bravo.

Duque is one of the oldest restaurants in the world, so we tried it on our trip to Segovia. There…read moreare dozens of places to eat as you walk between the Aqueduct and the Cathedral and Castle. Duque is unique in its heritage, its ambience (indoor, white linen table cloths, nicer dresses wait staff), and the offering of the traditional suckling pig. We made reservations and due to a goof on my part we had to delay it a day. They accommodated without a problem and communicated through email. That said, we ate at around 2 pm and I don't think we would have had a problem if we just walked in without a reservation, but this probably depends on the tourist volume and season. My wife and I ordered the large beans and the suckling pig and salad. It was A LOT of food. We really enjoyed the large beans and the traditional cooking approach using a pork extras broth. The suckling pig lives up to its reputation. The meat was super tender and the skin was very crispy. My wife and I couldn't eat all of our portions, but what we did eat was fantastic. We also had the beer and it was quite good. We ended the meal with coffee, which was very good. We did not eat dessert but it looks like they had some good ones. We probably stayed there for about 90 minutes, which was a nice way to take a break from the beautiful but dominant sunshine. This was probably the most expensive place in Segovia to eat, but we thought it was a great experience and value. As a final thought, we didn't do a very good job as English speakers trying to communicate in Spanish, but with context clues and their willingness to talk a bit in English we managed.
