Mesón El Tendio — Restaurant in San Roque

Friends recommended this place and it sounded just like another steak restaurant. Oh boy was I wrong. Absolutely the best meat I had during my 5 years in Spain. Unbelievably good. If you like meat it's definitely one of to go places. It's not cheap, but for the quality of the food prices are reasonable and portions are quite big. Beer selection can be improved, but the wine list was very long (not sure about the quality of those as I'm a beer person). Place isn't very big and was full when we came, so it seems reservations are necessary if you want to be sure to get a seat. Really glad to have found this place and will...

Omg. 800g seared sirloin. Comes with a hot plate to your table to cook as desired. I’m not usually one to advocate this type of dining. Didn’t take me long to get stuck In though. This place is a little diamond in the rough. I was pleasantly surprised. Staff were great. Service was great. Good value for money. And honestly. That beasty steak was some of the best steak I’ve ever had.

We had empanadas and croquettes for starters which were also very good.

Few places I’ve eaten in Spain are memorable. This is one of them. I’d...

Este magnífico restaurante se encuentra situado en la pedanía de Campamento, a mitad de camino entre San Roque y La Línea. Cuenta con un salón con decoración rústica y en su carta el principal atractivo son sus carnes, de las que cuenta con una amplísima variedad, teniendo también un buen surtido de entrantes y revueltos. No ofrecen ningún tipo de pescado. Acudimos para almorzar y nos decidimos por una empanada casera de ternera, un revuelto de espárragos con jamón, un revuelto campero (compuesto de patatas, chistorra, pimientos del piquillo y pimientos de Padrón, gratinado con queso manchego), y un San Jacobo de lomo de novillo argentino, relleno de jamón ibérico y queso manchego. De postre, milhojas, y de bebida, dos tanques de cerveza, una copa de Rioja y un refresco. La cuenta sumó 66 € para tres personas. Salimos muy satisfechos; la calidad de todos los platos extraordinaria y la atención, perfecta. Si acaso, señalar un par de detalles por los que no voy a restarle puntuación: cobran 1,50 € por persona en concepto de cubierto, y las milhojas, muy comentadas en varias reseñas, no nos convencieron demasiado, ya que no estaban crujientes en absoluto. Por lo demás, nada...
