Description:
Since its opening in 1964, this has been Old Town's best and most respected restaurant, featuring a busy tapas bar near the Mudéjar entrance. This formal restaurant enjoys links to the political and media-related communities of Cádiz. Tempting specialties include fresh fish and shellfish based on the catch of the day. We prefer ours baked in a salt crust that seals in the aroma and juices. Begin perhaps with the seafood soup and follow with, say, the roulades of sole with fresh spinach, hake with green sauce, or an especially delectable monkfish with strips of Serrano ham. The waitstaff is the best in Cádiz.

Very good service and reasonably priced food and wine. We enjoyed our dining experience at El Faro. Excellent King Prawn salad and Lubina for main course was superb.
