Had a great lunch at this restaurant. The food was delicious and big serving. The staff were really nice and service was fast. We ate here on a weekend and there was an available table. Highly recommended if you’re in the are.

Went for lunch on a Wednesday afternoon. The food tasted good but the meat was very chewy and bad quality. I saw all the reviews about this place and I decided to go and ended up unsatisfied. The waitress that served me was very nice. The guys weren’t very welcoming. Overall I recommend you to go for a drink as the tinto de verano was amazing. And this place has a really good location next to the cathedral in plaza mayor. I got charged 2.20€ for no reason I posted a photo of the invoice and a photo of the menu. They charge 0.20€ on each item served on the terraza that’s 2€ that I don’t know where it came from.

Good place for breakfast. We had a tarte Tatin, a piece of toast with tomato and olive oil and two white coffees for just 7.20 euros.

Went to the cathedral and was so glad we stopped at this restaurant for lunch! The meat was absolutely amazing! Luisa, who I assume is the owner, was very attentive and a delight to speak with. After our meal she gave us a tour of the restaurant. I’m a lover of history and she pointed out so many fascinating things and exactly what timeframe they were added or changed. You could really see the passion she had for that restaurant. The remodeling that Luisa did only enhanced the historical features and created a wonderful atmosphere.

Two days later we found ourselves in the same area so we stopped in for dinner and the experience was even better. I can’t say enough good things about our waiter Ezequiel either! He obviously could tell I was American and when introducing himself to take the drink order, he did it in English. He just made me feel right at home, which isn't an easy feat given that home is over 4,000 miles away. Luisa remembered me, and made my burger herself. I can easily say it was the best burger I’ve had outside of the USA! Even looking at the picture now just makes me want another lol.

If I am ever back in Cuenca, there is no doubt I will be going back there to eat!

We went here for dinner and were not disappointed. The staff were very friendly (the chef was even going to let us arrive early just because we were hungry tourists) and helpful. We ordered the parillada abrasador (selection of grilled meats on potatoes with peppers) and it was excellent. The beef was a little overcooked but otherwise delicious. Would definitely recommend if you're in Cuenca!

We only ordered beer without any food, but even that took a very long time to be served. What was worse, we asked multiple times for the check, but they didn’t bring the bill for over 30 minutes. In the end, we were running late for our bus and had no choice but to go to the counter ourselves to pay. Very disappointing experience.
The staff was insincere and rude. I will never go there again.

Very tasty Abrasador XL burger. Good service. Nice refreshing beer on a hot day too. Reservation recommended.
