Really amazing shop with all the best food from Spain you could want. Tables in the back to sit for food and wine, great friendly service. Loved it!

Lovely place and good food. The staff is really kind. The food is local and the meat is from the own butcher. I will totally recommend this place.

The restaurant/shop has very good food, and it also has a very nice staff that is patient and trying to help you, even though you may not be good at speaking the local language.

I visited this place, had some ham shoulder (paleta), ham and cheese tasting and ended up buying an entire 100% Iberian black boneless paleta for slightly over 160 for 2.1kg. The staff was friendly and seemed very knowledgeable and that's where the good experience ended. The paleta we chose was vacuum packed, which is good, with a transparent plastic on the front side and opaque on the back side (now I know why they do that). I asked if it could be repacked in 5 pieces which they agreed, soon revealing that the boneless paleta that I randomly got was basically 40 to 50% fat. To be clear, I consume these type of products since forever and I'm pretty much aware there's fat in the ham, but this was insane. It was so much that the guy cutting it felt the need to awkwardly start explaining me "all the wonderful things I could use the fat for". Like cooking with my just acquired 1kg of "80/kg Iberian fat". Anyway, at this point I had no choice but to pay for it and leave, since it had been opened. Offering this kind of products, where they basically design a package that allows hiding an enormous amount of fat is borderline a scam. Even if the seller did not produce the product, if it was my store I would NOT offer such brand (Dehesas Reunidas by the way, company that I will contact soon). I want to believe this doesn't happen often, contrary to the very real possibility that most tourists have no idea what's normal and would pay any amount of money to say they had Iberian ham, even buying some brands that will actually go this far to maximice profit. I would perfectly accept 20 or 25% of the paleta being fat, given the nature of the product, but in this case I just got ripped off with at least 40 worth of the most expensive fat I ever paid for.

Found this place after a stroll through Park Grul. The wine list was really good and the staff recommendations really worked. We had some meat and cheese which were amazing. A little gem off the beaten track.
