Wine Fandango — Restaurant in Logroño

Booked in for dinner just based on finding the name on Google maps and the pictures. The staff were very friendly and efficient, the decor was good, the wine was good and nice to have a lot of different wines offered by the glass. The food though was fairly average. I had the samosas which were good, quite a big portion. My wife had the squid ink rice with chives and cheese which was overpowered by the salty, seafood taste of the squid so it just tasted of salty, seafood rice and there was a large bowl of it. For mains I chose the tuna which was a bit overcooked and was again overpowered by salt because it was in a broth of soy sauce and with the addition of roe so lacked complexity or the ability to really taste the tuna so it may as well have been tinned. It could have used some accompaniment of vegetables as it was just a piece of tuna in a bowl of salty tasting broth with some roe and as the bowl is deep and steep it's quite difficult to get it out with a knife and fork, a spoon would have been better. My wife had the duck and despite the menu not listing it, it came wrapped in bacon. She didn't think it really needed this as there was enough duck and it didn't really add much and the bacon took over from the delicate sweetness of the duck, also the pear puree couldn't be detected. The desserts were a sharing size Tiramisu and cheese cake. The coconut ice cream was very subtle and she found the cheese cake just average. Don't expect too much from the food as the menu reads a bit better than it appears but as a lively venue with a good wine selection it's...

We highly recommend Wine Fandango in Logroño. In a town dedicated to the quick tapas, Fandango is a more tranquil, sophisticated and elegant table.

The restaurant is located in the basement of a building but never feels like it. There is a descending staircase with levels for the terrace before entering.

The entrance features both a spectacular half-moon shaped wine cellar. Opposite, the bar is equally spectacular with side panels that lift all the way up to the ceiling with different alcool bottles.

We were quickly seated and well assisted with the menu. All dishes were impeccable, this is restaurant for adults, beautiful presentations in a modern style of plating. We ordered different wines by the glass, they have a pretty good selection. Surprisingly, not the best wine we sampled in Logroño, their selection is wide, it can be hit or miss. For a restaurant that has «wine» in their name, in a wine area, with awesome food, I was expecting more (constructive criticism here).

Service was very professional. One of us had a special request at the end of the meal. I saw the kitchen was closing, they still delivered the request, I was impressed with the professionalism of this place.

Overall, rather on the expensive side however the quality, service and presentation were equal to the price and as such, price/quality is respected here.

Highly recommended, go without hesitation.

I don’t often leave reviews on google but for this establishment I will make a special exception.

We booked in advance a table for 6. Upon arrival we were seated near the rear door. It was raining outside and cold and the door was left open. We requested to move to a table further inside which was seemingly available. This request was denied.

We then waited 20 minutes to receive a drinks menu and a further 10-15 minutes to be served drinks.

I ordered a medium steak which arrived with plastic surrounding it. They offered to replace and when new steak arrived I could almost hear it’s heart beating it was so rare. They offered to cook again but I refused as my friends had already finished their meal..

Thereafter we ordered the bill. Instead of the three bottles of water we had consumed. They had tried to charge us for eight.

Nobody ever arrived at the table we had tried to move to and they assured us was booked in advance. (That specific table!?)

In short; terrible service. Poor food.

Please avoid at all costs. Do not make the...
