Bardal
Must try
Two tasting menus: Menú Bardal (€195) and Gran Menú Bardal (€230); with wine pairing, €215 and €250 (Guía Repsol). The Michelin Guide singles out the roast monkfish in Andalusian marinade with Maresme peas, and there is an artisan cheese trolley before dessert. Diners mention the boned stuffed quail, the guinea fowl with foie gras and truffle, and a mushroom dessert. The egg-yolk sweets they serve come from Las Campanas.
About
The restaurant of Benito Gómez, a Catalan settled in Ronda: signature cooking with recognisable flavours of Andalusian tradition and produce from local suppliers, a short walk from the Puente Nuevo.
Good to know
They ask for a card when you book: if you cancel with less than 24 hours' notice they charge €195 per person. Be punctual, because if you arrive late you may not get the full menu. Several customers recommend going at lunchtime. For more than 6 people, contact them beforehand.
Getting there and parking
It is next to the Plaza de Toros: park at the Martínez Astein car park (Av. Martínez Astein s/n, 24 h, about €1.70/h) and walk along Carrera Espinel, 10 minutes. If you are having the wine pairing, better to take a taxi.
