El Pescador — Restaurant in Cudillero

Delightful place. This is a high quality restaurant and hotel a little above the steep roads of the main part of the city. The staff is exceptionally attentive and eager to please. We only ate there once for breakfast and it was a veritable feast with home made croissants and pastries, high quality ham, a creative tortilla with ham, and fresh squeezed orange juice. The serving size was more than we could manage and it was all just $12/person. The breakfast service didn’t begin until 9 a.m, which seemed a little late. The room was immaculate. Small, but very clean and well furnished with high quality linens, towels, and toiletries. We couldn’t have been happier with the room. It was quiet and comfortable. Be warned that it is a rather long, steep climb down to - and back up from - the town itself. The town and the views are super unique and it is worth the effort. We didn’t try driving down to the town, but that might have been better if we could have found parking. Overall, Cudillero was a blast and El Pescador was a big part of our enjoying the place. ...

Visited here for dinner when staying nearby. Disappointing experience given the high ratings.

Giving a 3 / 5 , which is rounding up because the desserts were very good and I suspect we ordered the "wrong" thing as the other dishes ordered by others looked better. After being told the mixed seafood platter for 2 was not available ( and we did not want paella ) we ordered the two daily recommendations ( cuttlefish in ink and tuna like stew ). The stew was nice but not exceptional . The cuttlefish was only just hot enough and just average . Language may have been an issue but sorry if you have house recommendations they should be the best you can offer.

I am pretty sure a mixed seafood dish could have been concocted from the various dishes I saw...

Called ahead to book and to ensure we could be seated on the terrace, especially given the pandemic. We were told that the earliest sitting was at 8:30. It is a very long walk uphill from the town of Cudilleras to this restaurant. When we finally got to the restaurant we were told that there were not using the terrace and we had to dine indoors. Not only is this irresponsible during the height of the pandemic, but we walked all this way after calling ahead to ensure that we could have a table on the terrace. Absolutely unacceptable poor service and no remorse. If they deliver their food in the same way I'm glad we didn't eat there. Find somewhere else it's...
