Located beneath the arches of a residential building, Arraigo features a spacious private bar by the entrance where you can enjoy a drink before heading to your table. Chef Ángel Martínez de Marigorta brings Asturian traditions up to date through dishes that are lightly textured and meticulously presented, with a primary focus on flavour. The à la carte, harbouring dishes such as crab balls and broth, chicken with rice, and pigeon with spinach, is complemented by two tasting menus: Raíces and Arraigo.

A classic address that has had a new lease of life under the reins of chef Javier Álvarez, who has made the move here from the now-closed Casa Farpón de Mamorana.

TripAdvisor review sample · 4.1/5 · 80 reviews
Casa Farpón Asador is renowned for its high-quality regional cuisine, particularly its expertly prepared meats like grilled cow chops and torreznos, alongside fresh seafood. The food quality is consistently praised for its excellence and traditional preparation. Service is generally attentive and professional, with staff providing helpful recommendations. The atmosphere is described as comfortable, calm, and welcoming. However, value for money is a mixed point; while the product quality is high, several reviewers note that prices are elevated relative to the location and facilities. Occasional inconsistencies in meal pacing and dish execution have been mentioned. It is an ideal choice for diners seeking premium culinary experiences, though budget-conscious travelers may find it less suitable.
Recommended for diners seeking high-quality traditional cuisine and a comfortable atmosphere, despite higher prices.
