Saragoza food summary recommendation

🍴 Zaragoza Food Finds: A Roundup of Hits, Misses, and Hidden Gems Zaragoza’s dining scene is full of small, memorable spots—here’s the lowdown on where to eat (and what to skip): ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Restaurante El Disfrutón This one’s a keeper. It’s “fancy” without the fuss, serving creative, delicious tapas for just €3-4 each. Total value for money. The trout and anchovy tapas? Chef’s kiss—flavorful, well-executed, and worth seeking out. Service is top-notch too. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ O fogar We popped in late one night, so we only tried the anchovy tapas and a mushroom burger—but the vibe stole the show. Cozy, lively, and perfect for drinking with friends, thanks to the upbeat, friendly staff. That anchovy tapa? Easily in my top 3 of the trip. Fair warning: it’s tangy, so skip if you hate sour flavors. ⭐⭐⭐ Nola Gras & La Flor de Lis Nola Gras: It’s won plenty of awards, and its dishes mix in Asian flavors—fun for Western palates, maybe, but as someone from Asia, it felt more gimmicky than groundbreaking. Tastes good, but not mind-blowing. La Flor de Lis: Popular and tasty, but service is hit-or-miss (they forgot our order more than once 😅). Their thin-sliced ham salad is a solid pick, though. 💰 Budget Picks (No Service Fee!) Grandpa’s spot: Tiny, packed, and full of energy—many diners even stand to eat. The fried pork belly is crispy and addictive (even if it’s not fresh-fried), and the grilled lamb chops are - free (no gamey taste). Plus, they give you free sausages when you sit down—win! First meal spot: Touted as a “mysterious recommendation” on Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book). Prices are cheap, but the food was just okay—many dishes were overly salty, and nothing stood out. Zaragoza’s magic lies in its mix: from affordable, no-frills joints to creative tapas bars. Pick El Disfrutón for flavor, O fogar for vibes, and skip the hype at Nola Gras if you’re after something truly unique. #ZaragozaEats #SpainFoodGuide #TapasTour
