An evening in early June and Navacerrada was dead. This restaurant was one of the few opened and it wasn’t our first choice but we had a really lovely meal. The chefs salad was fresh and I liked how the salmorejo was a sharing dish. The almejas in tomato were very tasty (although messy) and went well with a cold beer. Finally the aged entrecot served on a hot sizzling plate was delicious, tender and succulent. The accompanying potatoes were too much and we left them. Service was fast and courteous. Nothing to fault. Definitely coming back.
