La Favorita Burgos

Passed by coincidentally at it was amazing. Everything we tried on the menu was over the top! The location is great, staff super attentive and good just delicious. Wine options also stunning. Would definitely come again!

The food is overrated, the steak sandwich is overcooked and very chewy. There were only two staff and they weren’t really pleasant or friendly, especially to outsiders. The wine is also over priced. I do not think I will go there again in the future.

Amazing restaurant in Burgos. Fish and meat dishes are GREAT. Also the starters and the desert amazed us. Very authentic - superb service. You can also have pinchos and drinks at the bar.

While visiting northern Spain it was our intention to try a variety of tapas venues. While the two dishes we tried at La Favorita were tasty, we sadly were unable to try more. This was primarily because staff were more focused on their local customers, rather than assist two international guests that they’ll never see again. We appreciate that we walked in at a busy time of the evening and that we are not native speakers, however our experience might have been more pleasant and effective if there were signs next to the tapas so customers could know what they are hoping to choose - this would save everyone from frustration, particularly due to language challenges. Unless you are a fluent native speaker, I suggest visiting during a quieter time when staff assistance might be more forthcoming.

I ordered the salmon salad. It was just ok - it was a thin, marinated fillet and it was a little tough to cut. Different than what I’m used to in the U.S. - so my opinion is based on that. It tasted ok.

Great tapas and wine, but unfortunately we can’t wait for late dinner

This is an incredible venue, out front is a cracking tapas bar, great food, wines and beers, with a really lively atmsphere and welcoming staff. The olive skewers are absoluely amazing, highly recommended. Also the local wines taste great. Tucked in the back room is a rather pleasant dining room, it was quiet and early when we ate here. The staff were excellent, English menus aren't available in the restaurant but they can be found online. We made our order and the staff were excellent at making food recommendations. Even going so far as to suggest that a full portion of chorizo would be a lot, and recommended a half portion, he was totally correct. The main of grilled pork neck was sensational, tender and flavourful, I've never had pork that tasted this good before. My wife had a tuna salad, simple but with amazing flavours. We were recommended a local wine, with paired perfectly and tasted amazing. Pudding was local cheese cake (no photos, it tasted too good), it was absolutely amazing. This is a place I would highly recommend, both the tapas ar and the main restaurant are excellent and worth visiting.

This place is a whole vibe! A little intimidating if you don’t speak Spanish but once you jostle to the bar all the food is amazing so just point and say uno por favor! Had the prawns, fish, anchovies and gambon croquettes. 10/10
