Frommer's Review

Come to this cozy little bar with an even cozier little alcove at the back to sample the incomparable choice of wines, either by the glass or bottle. Latest "in" tipples are chalked on a blackboard, but there are over 200 national and international varieties to choose from -- enough to satisfy the most demanding oenophile. Particularly interesting are the selections from burgeoning new Spanish areas such as Somontano near Huesca. Excellent tapas ranging from cecina de astorga (smoked beef) to carpaccio de buey con queso parmesano (ox carpaccio with Parmesan cheese) match the quality of the vino. Open daily 7:30pm to 1am. Closed in August.

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.
