Restaurante Casa Poli — Restaurant in Llanes

If you are visiting this beautiful part of Spain a meal at Casa Poli is a must. Local dishes, local produce. Luis, the chef goes daily to the nearby port town of Llanes to buy fresh fish just off the boats. Classic Asturian dishes such as fabada and cachopo are homemade as are the desserts. Good selection of local cheeses, chorizo, salchichón. Various wines to suit all budgets and of course, Asturian cider, poured in the traditional way - from a great height. I first dined here in 1996 just after Casa Poli opened. The quality of the food and service hasn't changed in nearly 30 years in this family owned and operated restaurant. Competitive prices. Only open at lunchtimes. Reservations a must on weekends, holiday periods. Recommended dishes: Merluza a la sidra (hake in cider), fabada, cachopo, fresh fish of the day, chorizo a la sidra, steaks, - actually order anything on the menu - it...

I felt 100% uncomfortable in this place specially for the fact to be there with my dog - even trained dogs can bark at loud noises. To sum it up: if they don’t like dogs even outside it’s better to prohibit instead of starring with a...

Worth a visit if you’re within 30kms. They open at 13:30 but make sure to be there at 13:15 latest as there’s a huge line and only the first 30-40 or so get in for the first round. Once inside it’s a beautiful typical house with a patio and 3 dining rooms. Very kind servers, and specifically Fran.

The food portions are big and you can see the quality of the product. We’ve had a fabada, anchoas (really tender) and croquetas de centollo, plus arroz con leche as a desert.

The fabada is really good and everyone was ordering cachopo so probably it’s worth trying it.

Price was 45 including a couple of wine glasses, two water bottles and...
