This is a workers bar/restaurant and only open for lunch. The menu is 9 Euro and includes 3 courses, wine, a valencian salad and bread/aioli. There is a choice of 4 starters normally including paella and pasta (yes as a starter and big helpings)mains are 2 or 3 meat dishes and fish and a number of desserts. I visited with my wife and we both opted for the Russian salad as a starter i had liver as a main and my wife had battered fish, I had tiramisu for dessert and my wife declined as she was full. I have visited this restaurant many times and the food is typically Spanish well cooked with fast service. I am taking my local bar owner here for her birthday and have ordered 4 tapas to start followed by a mixed paella so it is possible to order in advance something specific if you wish but the price is obviously higher than the menu del dia.
Haven't visited for a couple of years, but the three of us were very impressed by the friendliness of the waiter/waitress, the high quality of the cooking and the excellent value for money. Started with salad, bread alioli, then starter choice of 2 soups or lentils), then main course 3 choices we had pork fillet with trimmings), then postre 4 choices) and then coffee including brandy). Bottle of good red wine included. Total cost was 10€.
This is mainly used by people working nearby but has also become a Mecca for scerning retired folks after a good cheap lunch. Good service, good food and a very friendly atmosphere.
The lomo is juicy and the bread is super fresh! I love this bocadillo and super love it here!! You can eat out under the trees on the plaza and it will surprise you when you get the bill(cuenta).
Very good value but very busy at lunch time, easy to find it's right next to one of the main gas stations in Pego in fact if coming off the motorway it's the first gas station as you reach Pego. It is only open for lunch but good food and good prices, as it is very popular with the Spanish.
