La Tahona

Cáceres


Spread across a townhouse, this appealing side-street choice has an upmarket yet homey feel. Succulent wood-oven meats (such as cochinillo; suckling pig) are the speciality, easily sampled with the set three-course menú de asados (€35). The wide choice of imaginative tapas and mains feature hearty treats such as strawberry-infused risotto and seafood rices for sharing, plus straightforward meat/cheese platters. Bookings recommended.
