L'ALIANÇA D'ANGLÈS 1919
Read moreWith its yellow and blue façade, its rattan seats, its wrought iron and wrought iron tables and its resolutely modernist character, this is probably one of the most impressive restaurants in the region, or even in the province! Opened in 1919, the Aliança was first a bar, before becoming a gourmet restaurant with a master's hand by the Lluís Starry chef, it is now the girls of the cook who welcome the guests in their establishment to the new tropical-art cabaret, which they transformed into a versatile space. Indeed, we come here to enjoy a vermut or a good glass of wine between friends in the small spaces of the main room, that for lunch frugalement from some inventive tapas, or even solidly in the dining room, more confidential: preparations are Catalan, sea and land, executed with a point of contemporary creativity and presented with great elegance, and the result is superb! You will also enjoy a cocktail on the lovely terrace when the sunset comes. A very warm service team. Unavoidable!
CASA JULIÁN
Read moreA great Tolosa classic, known throughout the country for its excellent cuisine. This traditional house is famous for its chuletón a la parrilla (grilled prime rib) - the best in the world according to the American magazine Forbes! - served with absolutely divine piquillo peppers! The secret of its delicious meat lies in the art of cooking, an art that has been going on since 1954. As an appetizer, try Navarra asparagus or bellota ham. There is very little choice on the menu, but all the products are excellent. Not to be missed!
BAR HOSTAL DEL SOL

The best thing to do is to taste... Let yourself be guided by the advice of the young and friendly owner Jordi and if the atmosphere is right for you, don't hesitate to order a little Catalan wine (the menu is rich) or a pint of homemade beer. To discover absolutely.
CAN BARRIS
Read moreOpened since 1949, Can Barris has enjoyed a beautiful reputation for three generations now: you are here in the snail's temple! In fact, the establishment proposes its speciality of cargols "a la llauna" (a snail's snail) presented in the form of a dish loaded with gastéropodes (smaller than the Bourgogne snails) cooked in a delicious sauce. There are many other à la carte proposals, all very typical of Catalan cuisine in the interior, ranging from salads to carns, but also some fish preparations. Let's add that desserts have nothing to do with the rest of the menu. Pleasant terrace and family atmosphere. An experience that is worth a detour.
TORRES GASTROBAR
Read moreA gastrobar in due form, serving inventive dishes in mini format: caramelized liver tapa with applesauce, excellent Kobe beef burger, eggplant roll with piquillo cream, marinated sardine with grapefruit vinaigrette...

A must stop on the tapas route in Logroño.

LA ZORRA
Read moreOn the Passeig Marítim (but unfortunately, without the view of the sea), an excellent address to discover the cuisine of "Gipsy Chef", a nice and media-friendly chef known for his inventive and a little bit scoundrel! Revisiting the traditional paella, Gipsy Chef delivers several surprising and very tasty versions, in a 100% Mediterranean decor. Our favorite: the one garnished with black botifarra, diced apples and burrata! Equally original is the paella with black scallops and calamari, or the black rice with mussels and poached egg!
