Viento Norte — Restaurant in Vera

Visited Mojacar Pueblo on several occasions but this was the first time in February. Not many places were open but fortunately this place was. We were given a friendly greeting and a table was prepared for us inside the restaurant. It was a bit too chilly to sit outside. Service was good and the freshly made food was delicious. We both had Cod with what I think was a sweet pepper sauce. It was accompanied by a variety of freshly cooked diced and spiced vegetables and sliced fried potatoes. My wife had a coffee cake tart flavoured with whiskey and brandy. I had ice cream which was a small tub of chocolate and vanilla ice cream which could have come out of a fridge in an ice cream stall. The deserts were the only slightly disappointing part of the meal. The rest was perfectly prepared home cooked and very tasty. The surroundings were authentic and the whole experience very pleasant. The meal including drinks was just €43. We might well go there again next time we...

Tonight I dined at Viento Norte and had a wonderful experience. The food was exceptional, and the service was top-notch.

For the main course, I had the steak tuna paired with a delightful white wine. The tuna was perfectly cooked, tender, and flavorful. It was an excellent match with the wine, enhancing the dining experience.

As an appetizer, I enjoyed the fish carpaccio, which was fresh and beautifully presented. The delicate flavors were a perfect start to the meal.

To finish, I had the cheesecake for dessert. It was creamy, rich, and had just the right amount of sweetness.

Overall, Viento Norte offers a delightful dining experience with delicious food and outstanding service. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for...

Situado en la zona alta de Mojácar y cerca de un parking público, donde se aparca sin problema, casi que lo primero que encuentras es este restaurante, de aspecto bastante simple, pero en el que llama la atención, que es comida vasca y el siguiente paso es echar un ojo a las reseñas, que a priori parecen ser buenas.

En nuestro caso, quedamos sorprendidos de la puntuación que tiene, para lo que encontramos. Íbamos con algo de prisa y con ganas de complicarnos poco la vida y pedimos el menú del día, que tenía un precio atractivo (12.50 con pan y postre o café incluidos y sin bebida), con cuatro primeros y cuatro segundos, a elegir.

Pedimos arroz con pulpo y patatas con huevos rotos y jamos de segundo.

El arroz con pulpo, finalmente era arroz.... Con Chistorra. Vino la camarera tras ponerlo, diciendo que si queríamos cambiarlo por otro plato del menú, a lo que negamos por cuestiones de tiempo y nos comimos las dos tristes cucharadas de arroz sin sabor, con ese curioso "pulpo". Curioso, confundir pulpo con Chistorra, en fin...

El segundo no mejoró demasiado el primero, realmente era unas patatas fritas con dos huevos fritos y dos lonchas transparentes de jamón.

El servicio, muy lento, una hora y media para comer ese triste menú. También especialemte frío el personal, que incluso me hizo cambiar de silla un par de veces, porque la silla estorbaba.

Lo positivo... El precio de ese menú, pero creo que las calidades son mejorables, es más es preferible que cobren algo más y mejoren eso.

En las mesas colindantes, tampoco encontré visualmente, nada que me hiciera creer, que yo fuera la excepción y que ese local sea tan bueno, como ese 4.4 de puntuación que tiene.

Así que eso, lo único positivo con lo que me quede, es que no me...
