Food quality and Service level needs to be improved quickly.... Cold and poor Paella, fatty soup and under average dessert... At least... The bread is good...

Tried this place based on Trip advisor reviews and the name. No Labradors are server (RIP Andrew Sachs). Still not use to Spanish meal times and arrived at 8pm on the dot. Empty, but the two young guys provided excellent services with a 3 course...meal for Euro 12 could not complain. The food was very nice and tasty. The service was quick that we were out of the place in under 40 minutes. well worth a visit.More
nice restaurant and good vegetarian food here. Salads and Pizzas were nice, not very cheap but you dont have a lot of options over here,
Came across this place from a lady handing out flyers promoting their 10 menu del dia. We thought we check out more places but the prices kept getting higher for the same selection of food. We came back and was pleasantly surprised. The woman, which...I think owns the place quickly brought us down and found us a seat. It was nice to see people actually want your business unlike the indifference I see from most places in Spain. The deal comes with a bottle of wine that gave U 2-3 glasses. My wife had the paella and the cucamarsa?. It was great. My spaghetti in red sauce was alright. Tasted like chef Boyardee but I like that stuff. Pork medallions were alright. For dessert we selected the fruit pudding and almond soup. They were too sweet for us. Get the ice cream. Overall not a bad spot .More
A narrow back street, a nondescript floor-level entrance, a flight of stairs, and you emerge into a splendid restaurant. Excellent cooking, good service and reasonable prices.
We had the 15 Euros Menu Del Dia option in the evening and the quality was absolutely excellent, actually the best we had in Toledo or Madrid and great value for money considering it included a perfectly drinkable bottle of wine. The restaurant is tucked...away (although very central) and you might not venture in as you can't actually see into it from the entrance so it's not so easy to weigh up. It is in fact down the stairs and nice enough but unremarkable in appearance. However, the quality of the food was striking. If we had found it the first night (we were in Toledo two nights) we would simply have gone back the second night, which would be an unusual thing for us to doMore
3 course menu del dia for 10€. Beautiful restaurant, white linen table cloths. Very good quality food all home cooked. Good choice on the menu. If i had to find a negative it would be that the staff were slightly too casually dressed for the...surroundings but all very polite and hey does that really matter, especially when you are spending 10€ on lunch including a drink. I think not.More
This is one of the many restaurants in this great little city offering a lunch set menu for 10 € including wine or beer. Some of them charge 12 or even 14 € for exactly the same menu, with the same dishes, and I saw...a place in Toledo where they add 4 € for the privilege of eating outside... This is not the case here because they don't have a terrace anyway. So you must eat inside, in a REAL RESTAURANT with tablecloth and silverware, as I did on Thursday, June 6, 2013; on "D Day", a name that the majority of my students from the University never heard of... As usual (but not always!) there are several choices in the 10 € menu for each of the three courses. I started with a mixed salad: lettuce, tomato, boiled eggs (that I asked the waiter to take off so it would not be wasted) and tuna. For the second course, I had a "venado en salsa" (Deer in sauce) with potatoes. This is one of the few places offering something out of the ordinary, and I only saw one restaurant offering rabbit in sauce. All others have the usual baked chicken, paella, pork or veal steak. To finish, I had a "flan casero" (custard) which was not as good as the one I had the day before at the Cueva de Antolín in Alcalá de Henares, for which you may want to read my review. Since they don't have a terrace, I had to have my espresso elsewhere because of my cigar. But instead of just going around the corner, to the "Meson La Posta", where I had a good lunch the previous week (also for 10 €) followed by an excellent espresso for which I only paid 1.50 € (a review has been posted already), I made the mistake of going to a place called "Café & Té" on the main square, where I paid 2.20 € instead of 1.50 € for an espresso which was not better than the one of "La Posta". Next to this expensive "Café & Té", there is a McDonald's where you may have a very good espresso for only 1 €, but you must go inside to order, then sit outside if you want to smoke; and once I already had turned on my cigar, I could not get in. Therefore, I had to go to a place offering service in the terrace. Indeed, very few merchants are smart enough to have an outside window, like most Cuban places in Miami, where you may order your espresso from the sidewalk, while you are smoking. I only know one McDonald's with such a sidewalk window, but it is across from Atocha train station in Madrid. This is a real problem in the US but not in Europe, where there are thousands of cafés with a terrace on which you just sit down and be served if you are smoking; except in Starbucks, where you must order inside (and pay more...) even if they have a terrace! IN SHORT, this "Cervecería Restaurante El Labrador", only two blocks behind the McDonald's on the main square, offers an EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY in Toledo for a real meal in a real restaurant with tablecloth (not a paper napkin like in most places!) and silverware. Service is excellent and these folks, who are starting this business, deserve your visit.More
