The previous night we ate at a Michelin recommended restaurant. This place was soooo much better!!! Despite us visiting off season and on a Champions League footy night semi finals (so no one around), we 've had our best dinner here, while in Badajoz. This place is very friendly and serves superb food. Do talk to the waiter (possibly the owner). On his recommendation, I 've had the most brilliant cut of meat, called 'pluma '. Wow! Fabulous, rich, smoky and melting. This was accompanied by a wonderful, local red from Bodega de Santa Marina. Pure joy!

Great food. Good prices. Great service. Not a lot of English spoken, but they were practicing...! They have a locally brewed estrella beer, and it is the smoothest beer I have tasted!

Excellent food, great service, local restaurant. A last minute search on TA brought us to Degusta, which happened to be only a 10 minute walk from our hotel. It is outside the citadel on the far side of the river but definitely worth the journey. We showed up, without a reservation, on a Friday night at 8:30PM expecting the place to be busy, we were the only couple there! An empty restaurant isn't usually a good indicator but we went ahead. The staff didn't speak English and there wasn't an English menu which demonstrates that this is a restaurant use to serving local clientele, it was also fun to have to use Spanish and work our way through the menu. The waiter made several course and wine suggestions which all proved to be spot on. By the end of out meal the place had started to liven up, I suppose the Spaniards prefer to eat much later. This is a must do if you are in Badajoz.
