This is a very popular restaurant among the winemakers, and it is supposed to serve some of the best lechazo in the Ribera del Duero. Lechazo is the baby lamb roasted in a wood fired oven typical from Castilla. There are no menus here since lamb is the specialty and the only dish. The usual order is a quarter for two. You can start with some black sausage and some cheese from the area, but the main dish is the lechazo and salad (although they made us an omelet once for a vegetarian friend). The lamb is so tender that you can eat it with your hands, no need for a knife. If you want dessert you can try cream stuffed fillo dough, also typical from this area. The wine menu just has Riberas, but plenty to choose from.

The Cristobal family has been running this restaurant for more than 100 years, 8 of them in its actual location. The dining area is large with big windows overlooking the Duero river, in one of the walls you can see the oven nicely covered with tiles. The walls are decorated with plenty of pictures of famous people. The Cristobal family is wonderful, and really nice, always trying to make you feel at home.
