    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.

    Such a great little restaurant in the most perfect setting. Right next to the cathedral!…read more The interior is charming. Flowers painted in the walls make you feel like you are in an English Cottage garden. Crisp white vintage linens make it feel extra special. Easy to call and make reservations for dinner. Super friendly service from that phone call to saying goodbye after our meal. When we arrived we were treated so nicely. Menus are in Español but easy to work through with my Spanglish. A young man took our drink order - an excellent beer selection - then a young woman came to answer some questions and to take our order. The food was served in the perfect sequence and in a timely manner. All dishes were very tasty and large portions. Starters were a pumpkin & carrot soup along with an avocado, grapefruit, corn, hard boiled egg, green salad. My husband and I shared both with him eating the egg so the salad was now vegan. Mains were the veggie lasagna for him and tofu & spinach spaghetti for me. Both served hot and delicious. I liked the tofu grilled on my pasta. The two women checked on us, visited and treated us as if we were long time customers and so happy to have us there. Definitely recommend this place. Especially if you are vegan or vegetarian.

    Eat there twice in my two day stay in Segovia. Very highly recommend it! We are vegetarians and…read morethis is only one of two options we found in Segovia. They do have plenty of meat options but they also have a very nice assortment of vegan and vegetarian options. We very much enjoyed the tofu dish and the chop suey dish, we also enjoyed the veggie corquettes. The prices are great and so is the service. Great find.
