Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We stopped in for lunch one afternoon and found the atmosphere perfect. The gastrobar was filled with locals who all knew one another. The service was exceptional and the vino superb. The menu leans toward fish, venison, and the like. Just be aware. Will visit...again on our next trip to beautiful Toledo.More

We had lunch there with tapas and appreciated this restaurant with the service and the quality. We would have like to have dinner but it was closed on Sunday evening.

Really outstanding food in a relaxed atmosphere. Nice wine list. The staff were very accommodating. There were many families dining here as well. The roast lamb shoulder and pork were outstanding.

We stumbled upon this gastro pub for lunch and they accommodated us early. The service was excellent and the food wonderful. Go for the artichokes.

We went there around 10 and decided to try their tapas as one of us is not too hungry. The food was great, really fast as they close around 11, but freshly made. Can’t find fault with it. The price is really cheap compare to...other places. Five tapas , three glasses of red wine and two bottle of water come to less than 30 euro,If we are staying longer I would go to the restaurant.More

We had a fantastic lunch here, with our three kids (aged 3-10). The food was superb, and we particularly enjoyed the Cochinillo main and the octopus appetizer. Perfect pairing with a great Ribera del Duero wine.

My wife and me were travelling to Toledo at 13/6/2017, 13/6 is my birthday so we have decided to have a nicer lunch to celebrate it. We had a meal in the restaurant (not Tapas Bar, since the Tapas bar was quite full of tourist.)...The waiting time / food production time of each course was a bit long but we like all dishes we ordered, the food quality were great, service was also good we had a good time in this restaurant.More

During a recent tourist in Toledo we stopped for lunch. We were surprised with the option of Tapas Bar or a full service meal. We opted for the dining room...which is tastefully decorated and the service is excellent. We ordered the lamb chops which were...great. The dessert also came with a wonderful presentation. Great mealMore

The tapas where amazing and service was friendly and fast. The best part is that they don't try to push you into ordering more food than you and your party can handle.

We ate the lamb shoulder, partridge, steak, gazpacho - all fantastic Ambience fine but doesn't overwhelm at first entry, though more than compensated by quality of food and attentive service.

Stumbled across this place by accident and thought it looked a little pricey. Well, you get what you pay for! Shared starter of pulpo. Best octopus I have eaten in Spain! And I've eaten octopus in many places. For mains, we opted for the lamb...and cochinillo. Again, excellent! Not a dessert person, but shared the trio of chocolate. Gurgle! Very good value for money and worth the find. Would happily go back and thoroughly recommend. Service was first rate!More

We were directed to this eatery by one of the ladies working at a nearby store. We were the first arrivals to the restaurant, but shortly after, a big group of locals came to have a celebratory meal. Since we wanted a light meal, we...opted for a few tapas. I chose a tapa of lollipop shrimps, a dish of calamari and shrimp with cheese, and my husband had sweetbreads. We ended with a bagel with salmon and vegetables, utterly satisfied. With 2 bottles of soda - the bill was 14Euros. We will be back tomorrow for a big lunch!More

We came to this restaurant twice (lunch and dinner) for their amazing tapas. Beautiful and delicious food. Next time we're in Toledo we'll try their main restaurant too, but for now can recommend the tapas as a step up in quality and presentation (while not...necessarily price) those served in other places.More
