Their jamon iberico is definitely one of the best. Thinking about it, makes me want to go back. So many choices, so little time. A wonderful place to visit, indulge, and imbibe. They have a great selection of wines, and beers. If you have questions they are more than willing to recommend dishes. Enjoy!

Carnivores paradise!…read more However whilst I am a meat-eater I'm marking this place as lower on the lack to greenery and veggie options. The place itself is amazing, wall lined with pictures of matadors - maybe that should have given the game away - velvet drapery and dripping age and class. The marble bar downstairs is well manned with very posh looking staff (who were very attentive), however we sat in the restaurant upstairs. We ordered the mixed salad, steak (rare), duck and a bottle of house red (Rioja). The salad came but was covered in tinned Tuna (if you didn't know this is how Spanish mixed salad will come), and was very nice, however the greenery stopped there. The steak and duck both came with thick cut fries only, and both took up the majority of the plate. Whilst the steak melted in the mouth and the duck was explosive with flavour, having a whole plate, penetrated only briefly with the taste of carbohydrate, isn't my idea of a great meal. I do like variety, where the portion size left room for little else and we both felt sick, heavy and the meal was far too meat heavy. For desert we opted for the figs with brandy, which contained enough alcohol to strip a small painted table... but which was delicious, and coffee to help us brave the waddle back to the hotel. The red wine was very good, and the meal was finished with a schnapps, provide compliments of the house. A rich meal, which I think would have been better with more thoughtful ordering (i.e. asking for a less meat heavy option to share with a meat plate), or having the salad with the main. This was reasonably, but on the higher end of the spectrum for Spanish prices.

But, I finally caught them open on my last night in town, and am glad I did. I tried the ajoblanco (cold soup) calamari toast, and grilled foie, all of which were excellent. Finished up with a glass of Matusalem oloroso sherry that they recommended. Probably really 4 stars, but given it's one of the few fine dining options in the area, definitely worth a meal if you're around when they're open.

The steak I received was like a starter. And if you are waiting for an hour you are getting even more hungry. Another minus point was the service. The waitresses did everything but they were lost due to the full restaurant. Forgot to bring wine, water and olives. Left the restaurant hungry and thirsty.

Family and I stopped in here for a late dinner. The flavors were okay if you just need something to…read moreeat, but we were not impressed. I ordered the risotto and it came out with in five minutes. It was luke warm so not sure when it was made and how long it was sitting in a hot holding pan. Waitress spoke very little English so it was a bit difficult to order. they also didn't have the traditional tapas we were ordering in Madrid and Barcelona so we were unfamiliar with many of the dishes. We believe they didn't bring my sister in laws dish correctly. My father in laws dish was the most flavorful. If you do end up going here I would say to order the Cerda con papas. Although I believe cerda means pork it was a slow roasted beef with a brown gravy sauce over potatoes. The beef was moist and the sauce was delicious. Note: they do charge for the bread you eat on the table. We decided to pass on dessert. They were a little overwhelmed with the amount of people that were in the restaurant with only two waitresses. My suggestion would be to try another spot or keep your expectations low.
