El Sitio is a traditional restaurant in the heart of Segovia that delivers a delightful local dining experience. The service is highly professional, with the staff being exceptionally kind, polite, and attentive throughout the meal.
I ordered the veal steak (fried) with pommes frites as my main course and the Ponche Segoviano Con Base de Natillas for dessert. The veal steak was tender, which is always a plus; however, as part of the basic menu, it could use some refinement to better align with the price-to-performance expectations. The pommes frites were nicely done but nothing out of the ordinary.
The highlight of the meal was the dessert. The Ponche Segoviano was sweet and indulgent, with the creamy custard base adding an extra layer of richness to this local specialty.
Overall, El Sitio provides an authentic Segovian dining atmosphere with excellent service, but there’s room for improvement in some dishes, especially considering the pricing. The dessert is definitely worth trying for those with a...
Read moreWhat can I say? After researching the best roast pig suckling in Segovia I decided on this place. Along with the bullfight the roast pork was what I was most looking forward to, and Restaurante El Sitio did not disappoint. The server was quite attentive, friendly, and full of vigor for a man north of sixty. The place was busy, but we were seated promptly. Our bottled Cokes were delivered quickly and each of our three dishes came out one by one with our plates replaced between courses. The Beans From La Granja was amazing. The white beans were the size of prunes and cooked to perfection. The soup was savory and the pork melted in our mouths. Then came the roast pork. Juicy, tasty, crispy. You have to try it for yourself, but be warned for one portion will not satify your cravings once you have taken your first bite. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic Segovian meal. Bravo, Restaurante...
Read moreWhat a find. We were really well looked after by Xavier who had offered to speak English but when I joked that I had been rehearsing my Spanish he spoke only in Spanish and helped me out when I got stuck. When we said we liked to share our main courses he asked the chef to serve us a fish course on two plates and then a meat course on two plates, very civilised. He also advised with the desserts, when we inadvertently ordered two very similar ones he recommended choosing an alternative to provide variety. The food itself was absolutely delicious. We had the seabass in a garlic and tomato sauce, then veal escalope with chips. For dessert we had the segovian speciality, a cake with custard, and a most amazing "fig cake" which was like homemade ice-cream with figs and cream. Everything beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. All the staff were very friendly. Would...
