BOS tapería-restaurante — Restaurant in Cáceres

We stopped by because we stayed nearby and ended up going twice. Caceres is a very touristy town and we were a bit worried with overall food quality for the restaurants there, however we were happy with our meals here. Overall rating 4.25

The first time was for dinner, we ordered a la carte. The portions for the entrees were all decent-sized for the price. The risotto rice had mushrooms and was a decent portion but it was too salty. The beef tajin was a Moroccan beef stew served with couscous. It was presented beautifully and the flavors were great but the meat was a tad too dry. The Solomillo beef served with goat cheese was tender, moist and delicious. Iberico pork chops were also very good. We sat outdoors and it was very pleasant with the cool breeze. Perfect for the evening. Tables were all on a slope but somehow they were able to keep it level. Unfortunately, the chairs did not do the same thing so it felt a bit odd. The red wine we ordered was from the region and lovely. Service was friendly and efficient. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and decided to return for lunch. 4 stars for dinner.

The second experience was for menu del dia lunch. We sat inside because it was too hot outside and not much shade for the tables left. At 18.90 euros pp it included an appetizer, main, dessert, 1 piece of bread, 1 cup of beverage (wine, beer, water or soft drink). Wine pour was generous. The portions were good for the price. For appetizers we had were: the mushroom risotto, which was very good this time and seasoned perfectly. Miga with paprika. It had sausage flavoring but no sausages in the dish. The chicken salad was delicious, it had fried breaded chicken "nuggets: over a bed of greens. For the mains we ordered pork knuckles with potatoes. This was the best entrée. The pork was tender, fall-off-the-bone moist, and not fatty. The potatoes that accompanied several of the dishes were delicious. Grilled pork tenderloin was pan-fried. They were as expected. The cod with eggs and potatoes wasn't what I thought it would be. It was pretty much a scrambled egg. A disappointment for me. One of the dishes delivered was wrong but we didn't bother to correct it since we were perfectly happy with the mix-up dish that arrived. Dessert was good. Coffee was an espresso. For the people with smaller appetites, we had to pack away some food which the staff kindly obliged. It was packed very well and still delicious when we ate it for dinner that night. Service was friendly and efficient. The aircon at the table we sat at was a tad too strong for me. We enjoyed the food at lunch. 4.5...

We’re English speakers trying to get through Spain with un poco de español. I don’t object to menus not being available in English but sometimes staff can be a little impatient and irritable with our speaking efforts, as was the case here. Despite that, we really enjoyed the food and sitting outdoors was nice too. Los platos de carnes were incredibly generous servings and food others were eating also looked delicious. We were so anxious to eat we forgot to take photos. It all looked great though and the eel salad was something of a surprise 😀 Price was good and I’d definitely...

Hemos ido a este lugar desde Badajoz por recomendación de varias personas. La comida sorprendentemente rica. El capricho extremeño es ideal. Hasta ahí genial pero, no volveremos porque la atención recibida no ha sido correcta. Sabemos que empezamos a comer a las 15:20 y cierran a las 16:00 la cocina y podemos entender la ausencia de determinadas cosas pero lo que no podemos entender son las malas caras desde que llegamos y menos aún que, lo primero que se nos indique, es que no optamos a menú del día porque cerraban pero a platos normales si (no íbamos a pedir menú) y que luego nos sentáramos al lado de un grupo al que estuvieran sirviendo el primer plato del menú (el salmorejo). Mucho menos aún entendible que otra camarera, al terminar, les dijera si deseaban postre y les contara lo disponible (tarta de queso, helado y otros varios incluyendo el café) y que acto seguido nuestra camarera nos dijera ¿algo más? Y le preguntáramos si tenían algo de postre (aunque fuera café) y nos dijera que no porque la cocina estaba cerrada... no sabía que la tarta de queso PARA NOSOTRAS la hacían al momento y el helado... y el café...

Es una pena porque nos habíamos enamorado de la comida y somos buenas clientas... reciclado...
