“ Very warm and welcoming staff.the service was fantastic. The food, from.start to finish was perfect!!!!we can recommend the white bean soup, veal steak and the chicken salad. A lovely experience and a great memory of Avila. Thank you so much. ”
“ Awesome place in a great location. Stop on by after a nice walk along the city wall. The staff was very attentive and pleasant. The food was delicious, from the regular spaghetti and meatballs to the desserts. The cook on our steak was on point. By the way, you have to try the arroz con leche. We eat this dessert back home but the one served here is definitely the best I have ever had. We walked in just as they opened so there was no wait. You have the option of eating inside or out adjacent to the building. Enjoy y'all! ”
“ The food is amazing! If you’re are looking for an Authentic Castilian Food, this is your place. Their “chuletón de ternera” (grilled ribeye stake) is spectacular. The atmosphere is a great complement to the food. Highly recommended ”
“ Love this place! We came in on our visit to Avila. Food was fresh and delicious, the staff was accommodating and kind. You won’t regret eating here! ”
“ We had a really nice experience with this restaurant and it’s all kudos to Jony (Jonathan). We decided to spend our last day in Madrid in Avila. We were there from 9:30 to 13:30 so obviously we don’t have that much time to do everything on a relaxed pace. The plan was to just see the walls, visit the cathedral, try the chuleton and roam around. Maybe go to Mirador cuatros potes if we still have time. 12noon came, I saw this restaurant online and since they open at 12, we went inside and asked if there’s reservation needed and they said no. Jony was entertaining us and specifically told him we were in a hurry and we were a little full still as we had just ate in a nearby cafe. He suggested the chicken salad and the chuleton for us to share because the portions are big enough to satisfy us. We asked him for some ‘advice’ on how we go to Mirador given that we only have little time left and oh boy he did not disappoint. He even managed to get us a map, he told us to take a taxi from the restaurant and go to Mirador and ask the driver to wait for us to take a couple of photos and drive us straight to the train station and it was very convenient. Food came and he gave us a broth! It was really good and it was for free!!! We were the very first customer there so everything we ordered came really quick. The chicken salad was SOOOO GOOOD and the serving was big. The chuleton came and although it was good, I felt like I want it to be a little salty. But anyway there’s a little salt on top of it so I kind of spread it a little. We finished everything in 35 mins, paid the bill, left and went straight to the taxi stand that Jony told us to take. Thank you Jony! I have visited Avila a lot of times already and I was just there to tour my friends. I will definitely eat here again and will recommend this to everyone I know that will visit Avila. I did not manage to take proper photos as we were in a hurry. ”
“ I recommend the daily menu for 2 persons. Portions are large and its gluten free. The whole menu is gluten free apart from pasta and Castellan soup. ”
“ We visited this highly reviewed restaurant on a busy Saturday. We ordered the 52€“menu” for two and were pleased. Our only real complaint was that- after ordering well-done- we had to send our rare steak back for extra time on the grill. That said the meat was of good quality and tender. The bean soup, tuna salad, sweet potatoes and dessert were all tasty. Highly recommend. ”
“ We stopped here for lunch during a quick visit to the city. We chose the menu as we wanted to try a few things. The menu included patatas revolcona, ensaladilla, beans soup and a steak, and a dessert all to share. The soup was very nice and also the potatoes, which I never tried cooked in that way. The meat was very tender and well cooked. The dessert was very good, especially the arroz con leche. The only note would be about the price (58 for 2 people) to be slightly high for the amount of food. Said that, the location is super central so I understand that part of the price is also because of that. It can get very busy so I would recommend to book if you plan to visit. I booked over the phone and the person answering was very nice. ”
