In a small village in Llanes, a traditional family business has evolved with the times; the old ‘chigre’ (tavern) that one day was founded by the grandparents of the chef, Ricardo González Sotres, is seen today with two distinct areas: the informal Le Bistró, which maintains the rustic charm and offers a menu of traditional tastes, and El Retiro, a much more gastronomic space for us to discover its tasting menu. What will you find? A modern Asturian cuisine brimming with technique and creativity, respectful with the raw ingredients of the local area and tremendously balanced. Within the tastin

Asturian “fabada” stew, squid cooked in its own ink, tripe, pig’s trotter and snout give a strong indication of the culinary focus here. Le Bistró occupies the porch of a property that also plays host to the El Retiro fine-dining restaurant, but with its own charming rustic ambience and identity. Here, award-winning chef Ricardo González Sotres conjures up traditional Asturian cuisine that is fully respectful of both ingredients and flavours, in so doing offering a sincere insight into this region, accompanied by highly delicate textures and a nod to fusion cooking.

This restaurant occupies a charming, regionally inspired property that is visible from the main road and features two dining rooms, one with a marked rustic feel, the other a glass-fronted terrace-cum-porch.

Given its success and limited seating, we recommend booking in advance!

This longstanding family-run restaurant, located just in front of the local market, boasts a striking nautical decor that provides the backdrop for traditional cuisine that, in perfect harmony with the area’s maritime heritage, champions the highest-quality fish and seafood (priced by weight). This includes seafood stews (“mariscadas”) for sharing and excellent rice options. We can also highly recommend the fried squid (“rabas de calamar”), the legendary “arroz con bogavante” (rice with lobster), a dish for which the family were pioneers, and when it comes to dessert, the delicious cream mille

A family-run restaurant well situated along the main street running through this small town, where the focus is on sourcing the freshest possible ingredients from the local auction. Traditional à la carte featuring fish, seafood and a few savoury rice dishes. Pleasant terrace.

Occupying former stables in this small village, Ticiano boasts an attractive, rustic dining room with a wood ceiling on the first floor, where the à la carte of traditional cooking stands out for its array of meat dishes.
