I chose the least expensive prix fixe meal. For about 15€ I received grilled vegetables (eggplant, mushroom, asparagus, onion, tomato, and zucchini--very good), a whole fried trout with a bit of salad and some jamón, bread, a dessert, and a drink. I chose wine but because my Spanish is not very good, I ended up with a small carafe of wine, which was way too much for me to drink. The trout was fresh and well seasoned. I just wish they would have made more of an effort to remove some of the bones before it reached the table. I asked for the dessert of the day, which was a white chocolate cake with a milk chocolate drizzle. Also very good. The waiter was patient with me when he figured out I didn't speak Spanish very well. He said he didn't speak English (totes understandable), but when he brought out my change, he said, "Thank you" and answered my "hasta luego" with a "good-bye" which I thought was so sweet of him. I recommend getting here at the beginning of lunch when the tables are still empty because this place fills up fast. Seating is either inside or on the sidewalk.

Chuleton de Avila was just too heavy to handle on a hot summer evening, therefore, I went with the solomillo de ternera. It came with some French fries, asparagus and red peppers.

Our server was happy to recommend a wonderful local hand-made red wine, of moderate price, that we liked so much we shared two bottles over a leisurely 2-hour dinner, watching the fading light change the facade of the cathedral and listening to the darting swifts screaming their night song until the second course, when they suddenly departed as night fell. Each of our three shared plates were superb -- a bean stew, black rice with cuttlefish, and meatballs -- and if we were staying another night we would happily return to order many other appealing items on the menu. Our server was warmly formal, very attentive, very gracious. When we think of Ávila, we will remember Alcaravea.
