La Cábala Restaurante

One of the best restaurants in Spain! Great service and great food! Beautiful restaurant with excellent hygiene. The staff were extremely helpful and polite. Food was definitely one of the best in Spain. Butterfish, scallops and deer were terrific! Highly recommended!!

When I first walked in, the host visibly looked surprised to see me and then was shocked that I had a reservation. We were quickly sat and I noticed that the restaurant was semi-empty for a lunch service. Despite that, it took our waiter nearly 15 minutes to return to our table—I had to flag them down for water. It then took an unusually long time for the waiter to return again time to place our order. He sheepishly placed bread on our table without the special salts and olive oil. I had to request it and he gave a half-hearted and quick explanation on what they were. I observed the other three tables around me receive attentive and quick service. The restaurant was not busy. I had to cancel dessert and request the check during as we ate our last dish, just so I didn’t have to flag our waiter down again. It’s such a shame that the poor service overshadowed the quality of the food. We enjoyed each dish, but felt ‘othered’ and ignored for nearly two hours.

This is an absolutely lovely place!!! I highly recommend it! All dishes are unique and taste amazing!! Johnathan provided great care of our table. I would definitely visit it again when I'm in Toledo.

This might have been one of the best meals of my life. Everything was a back to back home run. The service was wonderful as they explained everything in detail and answered questions we had very kindly. We are Spanish speaking but the menu was in English and Spanish. There are small plates (not like tapas - not meant to be shared. They are priced individually and you must order the same small plates for every person at the table) and large plates that can be shared. We ended up doing just small plates (about 4-7 euros per person each small plate, although a couple go up to 10 euros per person). We got the croquette, the ravioli, the wonton and ramen, the burger, and a crispy wonton. All hits. 10/10

Tucked away in a little street of Toledo. The internal decor is great and it's a well lit place. The staff were friendly and explained every dish. The food was very good and reasonably priced. I had veal for the first time and it was unbelievably tender. The desert was a kind of bread pudding soaked in milk with cinnamon ice cream on top with these pop rock like things, it was recommended by the staff and also very good.

Step into La Cábala in Toledo and be ready for a culinary experience. The dishes are fresh takes on classic Spanish ones. The Menú Tradición is the lunch menu offered during the week and includes an aperitivo, four dishes and a dessert. This is an excellent offer and goes very well with a pitcher of refreshing white sangria. Highly recommend making reservations in advance.

Didn’t expect to find such level of culinary mastery and service in Toledo, but I’m sure glad I had the honor of dining in such a fine establishment. The decor of this place was modern chic and I adored the clean white setting. The place was well-lit and bright which allowed me to actually see what I was eating. This place feels like fine dining but at an affordable price (relatively speaking). I would suggest going for a few of the small plates as appetizers (3-4 would be sufficient), and then getting a main to share. I enjoyed the crab ravioli and the scallop, but what really caught my attention was the butter fish (which I got as my main course). The flavors from the fish matched with the pickles and butter gave the dish such a delightful complexity. Also, the wait staff who attended to my table was very efficient and professional. She was able to give me very good recommendations and even took the time to explain each dish… her service finesse really made all the difference to make me feel like I’m eating in a Michelin-rated restaurant.

My wife and I had a wonderful lunch here. We went with the owners recommendation, sweet reads for me. They were wonderfully grilled and sauced with a Madeira reduction. Very, very good. My wife had the butter fish with a strawberry hoisin dressed slaw. Great combination of flavors. The fish was not at all lost in the sauce. These were large portions. We felt it was a very good value!
