Carnivores paradise!
However whilst I am a meat-eater I'm marking this place as lower on the lack to greenery and veggie options.
The place itself is amazing, wall lined with pictures of matadors - maybe that should have given the game away - velvet drapery and dripping age and class.
The marble bar downstairs is well manned with very posh looking staff (who were very attentive), however we sat in the restaurant upstairs.
We ordered the mixed salad, steak (rare), duck and a bottle of house red (Rioja).
The salad came but was covered in tinned Tuna (if you didn't know this is how Spanish mixed salad will come), and was very nice, however the greenery stopped there.
The steak and duck both came with thick cut fries only, and both took up the majority of the plate.
Whilst the steak melted in the mouth and the duck was explosive with flavour, having a whole plate, penetrated only briefly with the taste of carbohydrate, isn't my idea of a great meal. I do like variety, where the portion size left room for little else and we both felt sick, heavy and the meal was far too meat heavy.
For desert we opted for the figs with brandy, which contained enough alcohol to strip a small painted table... but which was delicious, and coffee to help us brave the waddle back to the hotel.
The red wine was very good, and the meal was finished with a schnapps, provide compliments of the house.
A rich meal, which I think would have been better with more thoughtful ordering (i.e. asking for a less meat heavy option to share with a meat plate), or having the salad with the main.
This was reasonably, but on the higher end of the spectrum for Spanish prices.
