When you're driving from one place (Seville) to another (Madrid) and decide to pull over in a small…read moretown for some vittles, the last thing you expect to find is a six-star-worthy restaurant. [N.B. I have been promoting the idea of allowing senior Yelp Elites a once-a-year opportunity to give a restaurant a six-star review under the theory that some places are great (and earn 5 stars), but occasionally you stumble across a place that is above and beyond. FWIW, I think Yelp HQ is generally ignoring me.] Anyway... El 7 de Sillerias was FAN-TAS-TIC! I'll try not to hit the character limit with superlatives, so here goes: The staff were amazing! We had a service dog along with us and they treated him like a full-blown guest, refilling his water as needed, etc., while respecting the service dog code: working dog, do not pet. The wine options were deep and reasonable, and the bar drinks were perfection (both mocktail and otherwise). I had the meatballs, which were cooked flawlessly. So many meatballs today are cooked into chewy knobs of meat under the assumption that the sauce will save them (which generally doesn't work). Here, they were just right and tender as you-know-what. The Mrs. had some kind of burrata ball in a sauce that was not only beautiful but also delicious. The final dish was a ribeye that blew everyone's collective minds. Tender, juicy, and in a sauce that was to die for. 100% recommend. So normally I'm not a dessert guy, but boy am I glad I chose to be on this day. I had the cinnamon-coated bread pudding (I think the menu may say it's rice; I can't remember) that rocked my world. Not too sweet, but pure heaven. My kid had a brownie ice cream thing that looked like it would be too sweet but wasn't. It was lovely. So... 6 stars? You betcha. This one is easy. I am sad to see that there hasn't been a review of this place in YEARS, but I'm hoping that this one will put it back on the Yelp map. Enjoy... and you're welcome.

This small and unimposing bar sits on the corner of Plaza San Miguel and is just far enough outside of the main tourist area to rely upon repeat local business. After other disappointing meals in Trujillo we would recommend you give this bar a try.

Famous or not, Meson la Troya I fear has seen better days. We stopped here only because it was next…read moredoor to our hotel...we could have made a better choice. Meson la Troya is a great place if you value quantity or quality...and if you do then you are going to have a great time here. We found the dishes to be overloaded, overdone and over the hill. A casual perusal of the other diners that evening were evidently having a similar experience as we. The table next to us only sampled a few bites of the four dishes they were brought. Watching their reaction we concluded our impression was not alone. The best item we had was the goat cheese salad but even that felt like it was not much better than factory made. Our grilled asparagus was tough, the migas tasted like they used the lowest quality chorizo they could find and the lomo was so overcooked we gave up chewing two bites in... We did not see anyone finish their plates perhaps because of the large quantities but we suspect because the food was not that good. We at first thought our impression was because of our unfamiliarity of Extremadurean cooking. However, after spending several days in the region we learned good from bad. This was not good. The one saving grace....the postre was great.

The location of this "famous" restaurant is in the beautiful main square of the village. At night…read moreit is lit up so gorgeously! Photos line the walls of all the famous Spaniards who have eaten here. You can stand to the bar in the entrance and have a beer (which comes with s free little bite to eat, tapas) If you head tears the back to the tables you will find lots of rooms. This use to be a house, so it's pretty intimate! When you are seated, there are only a few other tables in that room. We had a large group and ordered LOTS of dishes and shared them all. Everything was delicious! I recommend the house wine. It's 2€ and tastes great!!
