Reviews Summary
Restaurante Puerta Real offers a prime location with stunning cathedral views and is praised for its excellent lamb chops and the highly recommended 'Menu Real' showcasing local produce.

"Tasting menu had healthy and filling servings. 5 course meal, was full after the 2nd! Great service for our 80-person tour group! 👏"

"The food is ok, we enjoyed the solomillo, morcilla and the torrija, but the service could be better. My dish, the riñoncitos, was overly salty and I did not eat it, the waitress definitely noticed but made a choice not to ask about why I left my plate. All in all more attention could be paid to customers. The location is difficult to beat and explains the high prices."

"Another excellent meal in Puerta Real! Can really recommend the set menu (Menu Real) as it showcases the best of local produce with local Iberico pork, Morcilla de Burgos ( the best in Spain!) and the slow roast local lamb - to be tried to be believed!"
