91/100 - I read other negative reviews here, but I disagree. The place is a little expensive by Spanish standards, but you have understand what you're paying for. This restaurant is a very old family run business and is a local institution. They have expanded the business well, now including 3 restaurants and accommodation in the city centre. They serve excellent authentic food by local people. Sure, many of the staff do not speak English, but it's the same everywhere in Spain outside of the main cities/tourist traps. If you want to experience the real Spain this is the price you pay. Learn a few words before you come and it will take you a long way. Anyway - to the food: Starters: Patatas con Chorizo a la Riojana - 8/10 Morchilla y Chorizo fritto con Pimentos - 6/10 Mains: Solomino de Ternera - 7/10 Corderito Lechal Asado - 8/10 Wine: Botega La Rioja Alta Bikaña - 10/10 One of the best wines I've ever had, and only available locally! Happy Eating!

Place was recommended by hotel staff and unfortunate we didn’t have a great dinner experience here. Maybe it was our fault as we couldn’t decide fast and needed more time but the waitress seems to be irritated by our indecisive moment and didn’t help either on recommendations. She barely speaks English and didn’t understand when my partner speaks Spanish to her. I had lamb chops, there was barely meat and mostly fat but luckily the little meat on the bone did taste good. Fries was drained with oil. Duck was good but a bit overgrilled. Dessert was yummie except for the chocolate sauce that didn’t really taste like chocolate. The dinner experience was mostly demolished by the hospitality of our waitress which was far from friendly

Restaurant in the core of the town, with a large offer of plates. We order cordero asado (lamp in the oven) and escalope (beef) and the quantity was more than enough. Good service.

They took great care of us. We arrived early and one of the servers informed us I reservation was there. We had some appetizers and wine before were seated. Had the stuffed peppers with mushrooms and stewed vegetables for hot appetizer and the the sirloin with fries for main course. Fantastic meal!

Very nice place! We had very taste meals indeed, however, the waiter was so rude. He barely talk to us, served the food without asking whose plate was and therefore placing them wrong. He didn’t smile or look at us at any moment and every time we asked for something, it looked like we were bothering him. Sad cos the place was very cool. I guess that wasn’t the waiter best day…

Went for late evening tapas on a Sunday. Delicious wine, incredibly friendly staff, delicious pixtos so good I only managed a photo of the dessert. Wine €1-2, tapas €2-4, hot starters €5 great atmosphere priceless. Be warned it was VERY busy on the Saturday night before so best to book or be happy with crowds

The food was delicious and the staff were so friendly! We would recommend the mushroom in wine, mushroom in a bag and if you would like to eat some vegetables: the salad! Thanks for everything!

Great food and great service. Also a great wine list and comfortable atmosphere away from the bustle of the street tapas bars.

This place is fantastic. We opted to sit in the dining room area instead of the bar, and our server Maria was amazing! I speak very little Spanish but she was friendly and helpful. The food is great and the portions are big. Best dinner of the whole week in Spain.

A wonderful restaurant in Haro featuring local food. We stayed in Haro for 2 days to explore the region and we wandered in on a Wednesday night. Our service was impeccable, and the food was delicious. Highly recommended! We had a bottle of wine, the wild mushrooms, lamb chops, beans with chorizo (you have to try this because it’s a local dish and so well executed here), and a dessert. I don’t know what the dessert was called; we just saw it at another table and just asked for it, and it was incredible.

Some of the dishes are good, such as the bean soup and lamb shank, others, like the lamb chops and mushroom appetizer were very salty. Our waitress was overwhelmed and I felt sorry for her, but not being able to get a glass of water until halfway through the meal, amount other things definitely won't have us coming back.

We visited Haro in our Motorhome heading North towards Santander. We went to the old town of Haro and came across a lovely restaurant/Pintxos bar called Beethoven. We were served by Elina who spoke better English than my Spanish and she gave us great advice on different Pintxos and matching wines . Great value, service and food. Thank you Elina!
