Toledo Bar de Tapas

Montevideo


Bringing a touch of Spain to the Ciudad Vieja, this corner bar serves a good mix of Iberian classics, from gazpacho and arroz con mariscos (rice with seafood) to tortilla española (potato omelette), croquetas de jamón (ham croquettes) and asparagus with romesco sauce. Yum!
