La Orza
At lunchtime, restaurants near the cathedral get horribly busy, so it’s wise to plan your sightseeing in order to be somewhere else when it’s time to eat—perhaps at this excellent option near Iglesia de San Tomé and the Museo del Greco. The dining room at La Orza looks rustic, and the food it serves is rooted in the earth of La Mancha, but the quality of cooking sets it apart. All the Toledan classics are here—partridge, suckling pig, venison—but don’t expect them to arrive in a heavy casserole. The small plates are exquisitely prepared with Spanish and Asian flavors and presented with artistic splashes of color and plenty of green leaves. There’s a beautiful terrace, too.
