Looking for a good “Fabada”, this is a great place with awesome service and atmosphere. Fabada had a great flavor, I asked for no blood sausage in my bowl and they honored my request. The pastel de verdura had a very unique flavor, but would have preferred it with more texture instead of the vegetables being too overly creamy. It had great flavor though.
A wander around the old part of Oviedo and not far from the Cathedral this place is a must visit for lunch. We arrived and two tables were taken and the rest reserved. We sat and ate at the bar. We had the menu of the day without asking for the price. The Fabada was fantastic and would have been a meal in itself but it was followed by chicken and then a large piece of cheesecake. Including two glasses of wine this came to 13 euro each.
Nuestro sitio favorito! Comida casera, atención muy amable. Siempre pedimos menú, casi todo se puede hacer sin gluten. Si buscas un sitio en Oviedo donde comer un menú típico de la zona y de calidad este es el lugar. Lugar perfecto para celíacos y saben perfectamente cómo atenderte siendo así. Está todo impecable siempre. Nos encanta. Las fabes lo mejor! Las raciones no son pesadas y está genial tanto de cantidad como de precio.
