El Buey

A family-run restaurant that prides itself on its honest and professional service. The small bar acts almost as a private space, while the attractive, classic-contemporary dining room is embellished with the occasional rustic detail. The owner-chef here offers a choice of traditional and international dishes, although he also has an excellent grounding in grilled meats, hence the name of the restaurant (the Ox). Nowadays, he pays particular attention to seasonal and locally sourced products, in particular its star product, artichokes from La Vega Baja del Segura. A typical local stew with meatballs (“cocido con pelotas de La Vega Baja”) is served every Sunday.
