Restaurante La Taurina — Restaurant in Segovia

Perhaps it was me and not the restaurant but I would only return for the friendly service we got from our waitress. It was 10.15pm when we arrived Our bill for the following was €74 for 2 3 vermouths 1 house white wine Croquetas de Jamon Iberico (pretty good and a nice portion Calamari (just ok. Big and tender served with half a lemon and the obligatory mayonnaise A portion of Morcilla which to me was inedible. Not very hot and I got the impression It had been sitting on a hot plate for a couple of hours. Pasty and very strong tasting the portion was enormous but we ate about 10% of it. Waitress did ask if we enjoyed it. My quibble here for everything served was it had the appearance of cafeteria food. No attempt to offer dips or sauces. Who wants morcilla with nothing else on the plate? Desserts were a cheese cake (very good) and a flan. Food could be presented with more pride and style. Overall...

We went to this place based on the recommendation from google, but our experience was very bad. We took the "Chulleton de vaca vieja" for 2 persons, a salad with red peppers, a Cola and a Fanta. For all this we paid 75€, but this was expected. However, the salad was supposed to have a tomato sauce which was actually ketchup. The steak was smelling like it was spoiled so we couldnt eat it. At least the personal was nice with us, but the food was the worst I ever had...maybe was just a one time mistake from their side or we are just too picky.....for sure I cannot recommend this place based on...

Food was average at best. The risotto did not taste like much, neither did the fish. The wine was good but expensive. In total, we paid a bit over 60 € for a starter (risotto), fish and a soup plus 2 glasses wine and a juice. After all, we were disappointed by the value for money here compared to dinners we had in Bilbao and Madrid. The venue itself is nice however, and we can't complain about the service. Maybe it is just what you get for your money...
