If you're in Salamanca and are looking for high quality sushi in the old city, this is the place…read more The fish is fresh, and the preparation is authentic. I suggest getting a lunch special in order to save a few Euros: You'll get miso soup, a small variety of maki, a drink (I got a warm sake), and a desert. Please try the green tea ice cream. It is rich and aromatic, not like the over-sweet, bland ice cream in the States. I have returned a few times for lunch here. I'll go back for certain. However, if you're looking for a place where you can get a huge mouthful of cream cheese in your sushi, this is not the place. It's upscale and authentic. Practice your sushi-eating etiquette here. I'm giving a 4-star rating because the portions are a little small, and they don't carry unfiltered sake.

(We fed five for less than €100 - note: no appetizers or alcohol and just one dessert) Vegan options at the time of this review: Quinoa and veggie soup Seasonal salad Veggie tartar (veggies, lime, ginger, avacado) Hummus and pita Moroccan-style tabouleh Rissoto w/zucchini Veggie (fried) spring rolls w/orange sauce Thai-style noodles and veggies And... The veggie burger (with carrot sauce) We ordered a single order of bread to start (€1) and also got two little shots of spiced garbanzo soup with it. We heard the server make sure it was vegan before she brought it. Tasty and a warm welcome on a cold day. I'd order a whole bowl of it if I saw it on the menu. Our server recommended the rissoto - an excellent choice. It's made with wheat and a creamy sauce, with zucchini and carrots mixed in. Portion size was perfect. If you can't tell in the photo - it's a pretty thick cylinder! Overall - impressed with the food quality and the service. Vegans rejoice. If you're eating with non-vegans - everyone will be happy!

Instead they have done a modern yet tasteful look with branding that I love. We visited on a Thursday evening and after spending a few days in Salamanca soon understood why El Pecado wasn't doing a roaring trade. It was quite expensive compared to it's competitors. Now I understand what they are trying to do... what they are 'trying' to do, is be a 'fine dining' establishment and this is reflected in the prices and the presentation of the food. Now they are not quite a fine dining restaurant but this does not mean that they aren't doing lots of things right. The food we had was great. Not fantastic but certainly delicious and I enjoyed every part of my meal. I particularly loved the prawns I had as a starter and would definitely recommend them. The service we had was also very good. Maybe a little slow considering there was only one other table, but still I left satisfied that our waitress had attended us well and with a smile. Overall, I would recommend this place to eat... but I would suggest having the set menu at €25 for 3 courses as that would seem much better value than our bill which I thought was far too steep.

If what you're looking for is real Spanish churros, this is your place (I know what I'm talking…read moreabout, I've been eating churros in Spain for all my life). It's a tiny Churrería, with only a couple of tables and the bar. It's not a tourist place, it doesn't have a shiny sign above the door, and all the customers are people from the neighborhood. Everybody knows each other so the place has a warm and personal feeling. The chocolate is thick and delicious as Spanish chocolate should be, and the churros are the best I've tried in Salamanca so far. The only problem is that the opening hours are short. You may not know that Churros are for breakfast in Spain, but it's true, so it opens really early in the morning (not sure about the time), but closes at 11.30am!! Get up early and start your day here like a real Spanish person!

There were 50 empty chairs and a dozen empty tables all around, that remained empty the entire time I was there. Not good. If a restaurant is very busy and needs to move a single diner to a smaller table that only seats two, I would understand, but then you ask the patron, with an apology, to select a different table, not simply move them when they are, literally, not looking. After dinner, I stepped up to the bar and asked to speak to the manager, and the portly, slightly scruffy gentleman indicated that I could speak with him. When I had related what had taken place, he said that I had a nice meal and said that I should "leave him alone." Shocked, I politely asked for his name. He refused to give it, which is why I described him as portly and slightly scruffy because I have no other way to identify him. So if you are eating alone and perhaps even in a group, chances are not small that you will be treated with as much understanding and civility as I was. The food was good. The drink was good. The atmosphere was good. The servers were kind and helpful. The portly, scruffy, nameless "boss" thoroughly ruined what might have been a perfectly lovely evening.
