Casas - Aracena

This restaurant is located in the same street as “Gruta de las Maravillas” and we decided to give it a try after visiting the beautiful “Gruta”. Food quality was ok and service was average, but hurried. Most items on the menu were ridiculously overpriced. We where charged 15€ for a cured ham omelette (just the omelette, containing two eggs and some tiny ham cubes; no sides). If you walk for a few minutes towards the center, you will find really nice restaurants, with much better food and service, at literally half the price.

The restaurant was packed and we had to wait a while. All the dishes had amazing drawings and it was something that caught our eye and made us want to try out the restaurant, as well as the reviews we read. The food was great. However, the price was high for what it was. Also the service could be better, they seemed a little bit desorganized and it took a while until someone came with the bill and we were able to pay.

This is a typical Spanish restaurant, with many locals eating there on the Thursday lunchtime of our visit. There are tables outside in a pedestrian area, located in the same street as the caves attraction. The service was attentive and the menu extensive. Try the local mushrooms which are excellent, as was the tuna salad and chorizo. We did go back in the evening when considering where to eat, but it was closed. This restaurant is in the town centre. I would recommend this restaurant.

La comida estaba deliciosa, el servicio fue pésimo. Se equivocaron y no tomaron en cuenta nuestra reserva. Nos sentaron en una mesa grande (éramos dos) y prácticamente nos apuraron para comer en media hora para liberar la mesa para otra reserva. Fue muy descarado.

We ate well, that's undeniable, but as I put in the title it was a little expensive, especially the san jacobo that offers nothing of the other world and the dish of ham that is good but they are of the wing and hardly gives for a lonchita per person. The desserts are very good indeed and all the staff is very professional.
