Restaurant Paco Meralgo

Paco Meralgo is a celebrated "alta taberna" (high tavern), offering a unique and elevated take on the classic Spanish tapas bar. The restaurant's name and playful spirit are inspired by a charming legend of King Adolfo X "El Tripero," who, during a visit to the innkeeper Paco Meralgo, was served a glass of wine with a slice of chorizo placed on top as a "tapa" to keep the dust out. The king loved the idea so much that he decreed all wines in the kingdom be served with a tapa.

True to its story, Paco Meralgo is a place dedicated to the art of eating and drinking well. The menu is a celebration of excellent Spanish produce, featuring a wide array of traditional and creative tapas, seafood, and charcuterie. The kitchen is known for its commitment to quality, with a focus on fresh, market-driven ingredients, from Iberian ham and smoked sardines to seasonal vegetables and grilled fish. The wine list is equally impressive, curated to complement the food and showcase the best of Spanish winemaking.
