Bistro Casa María

When you walk into this tiny bar at the top of the old town, they’ll tell you this is a different kind of restaurant. There is no menu, just a set price for whatever Isabel, daughter María, and an all-female team, prepare that day from the market. You simply choose between fish and meat. A hunk of bread with tomatoes and olive oil will get you started. The cooking is simple, fresh, and delicious, particularly the perfectly grilled beef and pork which come with a spicy Romesco sauce. With just a few tables, reservations are essential. If you can’t get one, try Gastrobar MK (Calle Armiñan, 25) near Puente Nuevo, run by the same family.
