One of the best restaurants we've been to in Spain. We were in Aviles for a book festival and found…read morethis place. You have to make reservations as they get packed with locals. But the food is sooo good. Their arroz con lobster can easily feed everyone as it's so big. The rice is so rich with flavor and they don't skimp on the lobsters either. We were going to order more but the waiter kindly recommended we not as it was a lot. Second time we went back, we had the zamburinas as an appetizer and they are excellent too. As a cider house the cider is of course good and it's fun seeing the waiters pour it from on high. The service was surprisingly good. They were super friendly and took care of us. Also they have English menus if you use the QR coHighly highly recommend!

The fish came nicely grilled, tender on the inside and nicely browned on the outside. The flavor was good and the seasoning was low, basically no salt. I asked for pepper and it made my dish perfect for me. Lots of locals were eating here, so i's not a tourist trap. They take credit cards.

Traditional Asturian food, which is generally rustic and hearty. They are apparently particularly noted for their cachopo, two veal fillets sandwiching Spanish ham and cheese, breaded and fried. I did not try it on that occasion, but did enjoy the eggplant moussaka and grilled beef. Very much a local's place, with local color, and very conveniently close to the historic center of the town.

The service was very accommodating of our poor Spanish. Definitely worth trying.
