A homely restaurant occupying a restored 12C house that was once part of an attractive porticoed street in the centre of Morella. Inside, the classic-cum-contemporary dining room shares space with an unusual 13C well and a glass-fronted wine cellar in the basement. The cuisine here is centred around traditional Morella recipes which have been pleasantly updated both in terms of presentation and culinary technique and can be enjoyed via the à la carte and the Raíces (Roots) tasting menu, on which local producers and seasonal ingredients play a prominent role.
