As it turns out, they did in fact have an English version of their menu! The menu had a great variety of appetizers, main courses, and desserts. Although it is focused more on local meats than anything else. I got the 1/2 grilled chicken (1/2 pollo asado) and it was one of, if not the best, meal I've had while in Spain. It was season perfectly, juicy, and just enough food to make me full but not overfill in the hot weather. The waitstaff were friendly but did not speak much English. That being said there is no concern here that they will get your order wrong. They are very good and very efficient at what they do. I highly recommend stopping here for lunch or dinner if in the area!

This cozy spot by the walls is unapologetically traditional, meaning, yes, that is soggy bread in a bowl and yes, it will weirdly grow on you by the third bite.

Chuleton de Avila was just too heavy to handle on a hot summer evening, therefore, I went with the solomillo de ternera. It came with some French fries, asparagus and red peppers. I always like the simplicity with spanish food. It was not a disappointment. The meat was cooked just about right. The waiter was also the owner of the place. He is very attentive, nice and pleasant. I would definitely come back to this place for a chuleton

Our server was happy to recommend a wonderful local hand-made red wine, of moderate price, that we liked so much we shared two bottles over a leisurely 2-hour dinner, watching the fading light change the facade of the cathedral and listening to the darting swifts screaming their night song until the second course, when they suddenly departed as night fell. Each of our three shared plates were superb -- a bean stew, black rice with cuttlefish, and meatballs -- and if we were staying another night we would happily return to order many other appealing items on the menu. Our server was warmly formal, very attentive, very gracious. When we think of Ávila, we will remember Alcaravea.
