It certainly pays to leave the tourist areas and find this restaurant. We had a very enjoyable meal here for our last evening in Toledo. Atmosphere was very relaxed and inviting. Staff were attentive, warm and friendly. Food was excellent and beautifully presented. Complimentary liqueur and delicious biscuit to finish the meal was a nice surprise. Would definitely return.

We went to this restaurant following the recommendation on this site. It is essential to book of you want to take advantage of the area of al fresco eating. The service was excellent and the food very good. This restaurant would also be good for lunch when one could enjoy the view.

What a pleasant find! Menu del dia was around €30, three courses, inc. wine, plus little amuse bouches and a digestive thrown in - great value. I wanted a clean meal and the copious green salad followed by baked hake was just the job. Many traditional Toledo dishes, all presented well. Outside dining on the terrace, although the night we...

Outstanding restaurant, modern cooking using quality local ingredients, the sort of food you'd find in a trendy capital city rather than a provincial town in Spain. Lamb stuffed with foie gras was delicious, excellent wine, good service and atmosphere. Probably the main reason I'd consider returning to Toledo.

Stopped here for lunch on the way to El Greco museum. Were surprised having found just one table with no RESERVED plate on it. Attentive staff and gorgeous food - we had suckling pig and grilled veg, all nicely cooked. Good wine list, somme lovely compliments and does not cost you a fortune. Eventually we missed the museum as it... More

Although the restaurant looks good the experience was not anything special. We had been previously, a few years ago and enjoyed the food and ambiance, but this time the atmosphere was lacking. There was no rapport with the staff. They did not ask if the food was ok. It took a while to draw attention the fact that the medium... More

We have found this restaurant by chance! We had an excellent lunch and service after a long day and enjoyed a lovely sunshine outdoor.

A stellar, upscale, sophisticated restaurant on the back side of town, the quiet part, fewer tourists, more appreciative locals or weekenders from Madrid. Small place, and reservations are both essential and hard to get at the last minute. Beautifully prepared and presented meals, a nod to both local dishes and big-city display on the plate. This is not a typical... More

This restaurant is fantastic, the food is close to perfect and the staff were wonderful. The only qualm we had was that we had made a booking for 8.30 however we had to wait 20 mins before being seated, a small complaint as they more than made up for it! Delicious interesting food and well worth the wait. We definitely... More
