Eating in Cadiz
In Cadiz you will find some of the best and freshest fish and shellfish in the world. They are best eaten as simply cooked as possible: plain boiled shellfish (in varying sizes from tiny prawns up to lobsters), grilled or baked whole fish such as lubina (bass) or dorada (bream), or deep fried with a light flour coating (especially puntillitas (baby squid) and boquerones (anchovies).
To eat not too expensive fish and shellfish, you can look at Calle Zorrilla (several tapas bars and street vendors) or Calle de la Palma (several restaurants with open air terraces).
For a splurge, the best place in town is Restaurante El Faro (Calle San Félix. But even here food can be not very expensive, if you stand at the bar and eat only tapas.
Balandro, Alameda de Apodaca, 22. Modern bar with good food typical from Cadiz. It is extremly cheap (all dishes cost €3-5 if you get tapas at the bar and around €12-€14 if you get a sit down meal ) and the quantities are generous. It's located on the coastline and as such, they seem to get the pick of the fish that comes in every day. �
El Merodio, C/Libertad 4. �
El Faro, Calle San Felix 15. �
El Gaucho, (Calle de Murquia). Only opened in May 2011 but has already forged a name as the best steak restaurant in the town. Expect to pay around €14 for a steak with chips (they expect you to share this, but one can easily eat) and it's incredibly tasty. �
Cumbres Mayore, (C/ Zorilla). Best Tapas in town with a focus on the famous iberican hams and meats. �
