Altamirano

Altamirano Review

The modest, old-fashioned exterior of this local favorite is a bit deceiving: when you step inside you'll be greeted not with stodgy decor but rather with three spacious dining rooms decorated with Spanish soccer memorabilia, photos of famous patrons, and tanks of fish. Traditional blue tilework completes the look. Fish and seafood choices include fried or grilled squid, spider crab, lobster, sole, red snapper, and sea bass. If you're not a fish eater, though, you'll have to make do with little more than a roll and dessert. The latter includes homemade rice pudding and chocolate mousse. This is a popular venue with locals and tourists, so go early to be sure of a table—especially if you want to dine outside, on the lovely terrace in the plaza.
