Reviews Summary
Restaurante Salicornia Cadiz is highly praised for its exceptional aged steaks and unique creamy mushroom rice. Diners consistently rave about the quality of the meat, expertly grilled by Chef Juan, and the flavorful seafood options.

"We had an amazing dinner at this lovely restaurant.
Chef Juan is a chef with a big passion for meat. His meats were grilled to perfection, and he has an amazing personality.
All the food was amazing. The homemade foie dish is excellent!
We will definitely come back next time we are in Cadiz!"

"Nice interieur, quiet but attentive staff who delighted in explaining all the food options and choices they have on their daily menu. Various kind if seafood and beef. We ended up with some appetizers and then shared 900 g of a 110 day dry aged ox - not cheap but worth it, one of the best steaks I had."

"A gem in Cadiz! The server was friendly and helpful. We had the soft shell crab to start. This was fantastic- perfectly cooked and seasoned with a little kick to it. Very good.
We then had the creamy rice which was delicious and moorish. I think I could eat that every day.
The steak was great and the side of padron peppers complimented beautifully. Finally the cheesecake was delicious ."
