€€Contemporary
Despite its functional appearance, this restaurant situated next to the imposing Pablo Serrano IAACC (Aragonese Institute of Contemporary Art and Culture) building serves cuisine that is high on quality but low on price. In this informal, multi-purpose setting, guests can choose from a reasonably priced contemporary-style menu with a good choice of dishes and observe the chefs at work in the open-view kitchen behind the bar. Half of the wines available come from the local region.

€€€Modern Cuisine
At this centrally located restaurant, after ringing the bell, you enter a classic-contemporary setting with only five tables, a good indication of how personalised the menu and service are. Chef David Baldrich, through a single tasting menu, champions a modern cuisine that evolves with the seasons and plays on exclusivity, seeking to convey culinary sensations that we don't usually experience in our daily lives. A standout dish? Don't miss the house classic, the low-temperature Huevo Senda, with onion and honey sauce, ham, mushrooms and potato ash.

€Fusion
This casual, informal eatery describes itself as a gourmet taberna to prepare you for the fact that it isn’t a regular style of restaurant. Its identity is built around raw and marinated ingredients, with dishes featuring on a small à la carte with influences from Japan, the Mediterranean and Latin America, the latter represented by dishes such as the sea bass tiradito. Booking advisable.

Crudo in Zaragoza offers fusion cuisine with high ratings. Food quality is praised, particularly for exquisite raw dishes, tataki, and creative classics like cinnamon picaña. Service is attentive and the atmosphere intimate. However, value is mixed; many note portions are small relative to price, especially for ceviche and appetizers. A few reviews mention a strong cleaning chemical smell upon entry. While the product quality is evident, the small serving sizes lead to dissatisfaction regarding cost-effectiveness for some diners. It suits those seeking refined flavors over generous quantities.
Ideal for diners seeking refined fusion cuisine and high-quality ingredients, though small portion sizes should be expected.
€€€Creative
At Gamberro, you’ll find a somewhat unusual punk-style decor and creative dishes that are only served as part of a surprise tasting menu. Make sure you arrive on time as the dining experiences starts at the same time for everyone.

In the ever-busy old town, just a stone's throw from the Caesaraugusta Theatre Museum, Maite is a contemporary gastronomic space offering intimacy and relaxation.

A simple bistro that defines its cooking as haute-cuisine from the “barrio”! Contemporary-style tapas and raciones featuring Asian fusions, vegetables, tripe etc, alongside a more seasonally inspired menu.

Bistrónomo in Zaragoza offers contemporary Spanish cuisine with Asian fusion influences. Reviews are polarized. Positive feedback highlights fresh ingredients, creative dishes like beef tartare and crispy egg, and passionate service. However, numerous complaints cite declining food quality, citing oily soups, poor-texture chickpeas, and low-quality tuna. Service is frequently criticized for being understaffed, leading to slow pacing, rudeness, and lack of attention. While the atmosphere is generally pleasant, the inconsistent execution and service bottlenecks significantly impact the dining experience, making it a risky choice despite its innovative concept.
