Alcaravan

A nosotros nos explicó el camarero que probablemente eran las antiguas caballerizas del castillo. Por fuera engaña, parece una tasca fea, y por dentro sorprende por su decoración. Tapas y medias exquisitas y personal muy amable. Recomendable

Un bar muy acogedor y con servicio muy amable.
La comida estaba muy rica. Probamos la mojama de atún con parmesano, que estaba delicioso, y las berenjenas fritas con salmorejo y jamón ibérico.

What’s different about Alcarvan is that it’s a former dungeon of a castle — I don’t think they do quite enough to capitalize on the distinctiveness of that (instead, it can feel a bit like a sports bar as there are a bunch of folks watching soccer on television).
The food is the standard Spanish tapas menu — heavy on fish, ham, and the mixed salad (which, of course, comes with tuna). To put it another way, Alcaravan is not a place to take your vegetarian friends. What we had here wasn’t quite as exciting or inventive as other tapas places (probably the best of what we sampled was the salad) and some of what we sampled was simply unpleasant. The «meatballs» of squid had the consistency of wet bread, and the tuna was among the fishiest I have encountered in terms of both taste and smell.
The folks at Alcaravan seem perfectly nice, but slightly confused. At first, they sat us as a table that was entirely too small for four people. Then, they tried to squish all of our food (three dishes) onto the too-​small table, and then they moved another table between us so that two of us were sitting a good ten feet apart from the other two.
