Chez Víctor

Frommer's Review

Set within the historic center of town, this is the best, most glamorous restaurant around. Owner-chef Victoriano Salvador spent some 15 years in France learning and perfecting his craft. He returned home to open this restaurant, which won the only star Michelin has ever granted to a Salamanca restaurant. Specialties include freshly prepared fish -- perhaps sea wolf in black squid sauce, broiled turbot in a hot vinaigrette sauce or, even better, bluefin tuna steak with sesame seeds. Try the tenderloin in lemon sauce or, if it's offered, pork ribs stuffed with prunes and served with a honey-mustard sauce. Don't miss Victoriano's signature almond-bark cookies. Despite the modernity of the cuisine, the portions are ample and well suited to Spanish tastes.
