This is a classic Spanish restaurant with wonderful Spanish service. The food is always going to be good. The price is not cheap. I go here for special occasions. Once I amde a mistake and ordered the monk fish for two, which was delicious, but they charged us by the gram and we ended up having a 200 Euro bill.... More

Although the service was nice and polite, did not quite like the food. We ordered a specialty, soli fish, but got it fried and with some chips, which was rather disappointing. The starters were great though, some cheese spreads, ham and vegetables. The meat also came with chips, so generally we were disappointed with the side dishes.

Located on a slip road from the A1, you could never just 'chance' upon this place. Consequently, I doubt it ever sees tourists but nonetheless is a busy restuarant. Pleasant service and tables with crisp clean white cloths it's an establishment on the upmarket side of the street. The focus of the short menu appears to focus on Asturian cuisine... More

I went there with some Spanish colleagues and I enjoyed this restaurant. We had some typical Spanish food, from the jamon (ham) to gaspacho (cold tomate soup) to solomillo (steak) and the quality is excellent. I had a Rioja red wine very good. The price is in line with the quality: Eur 85 per head.
