Vandelvira Review

A 16th-century former convent has been converted into this citadel of good cooking and affordable prices. Similar to a cathedral in size, the building still contains much of its original architecture and conventual furnishings. The summer terrace is one of the most popular night bars and taverns in town. The chefs have a few fish dishes, including bacalao (cod), but mostly their meats are the way to go. Milk-fed lamb is one of their finest options, and the veal dishes are also outstanding. One of their more exotic specialties is pigs' knuckles stuffed with perdiz (partridge) and spinach. They also prepare an excellent appetizer of partridge pâté with virgin olive oil.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
