Reviews Summary
La Cacharrería is celebrated for its creative and well-executed dishes, often served in generous portions, and its charming, quirky ambiance.

"Very nice restaurant in Gijon! Not your typical Spanish restaurant, very original dishes with a touch of Spain and other kitchens as well. Very nice decoration as well.
We had three dishes and dessert and all were very nice."
Jessica Westdijk
"We had a reservation for 2 at 21:00
It was great the service, location and the food
For 2 persons 3 dishes was more then enough
We had the steak tartare, tataki tuna and the Mexican tacos. All good and special flavours"
Alexander
"The food, service, and atmosphere were absolutely spectacular! We loved everything from the moment we stepped into the restaurant. The service was prompt, and the portions were generous. The salad was a standout! It was truly unique and delicious. I also really enjoyed the vibe and decor. We will definitely be back."
