Fantastic! Marvelous! Brutal!!! A bar-shop from the old days, apparently modest, from the town, for what it is. Without pretense of anything else. So that! Managed by a very attentive family, kind as could not be, wanting to please you in everything they do. Regarding the food, which is what we are going to, I cannot lower the level of praise either.

Puentecastro is the village where my mother-in-law was born. When we visited from Australia, of course, we had to eat at Casa Alonso.

It is a village bar-shop that we must thank for being here and remaining. These small businesses have to face some expenses, which with respect to the meager income make them unfeasible, in many of these cases the expenses should be in accordance with the income, it is impossible to face the payment of social security, the ibi, the vats, the personal income tax , and other formalities , and try to open early and spend 14 or 16 hours there at the service or disposal of the potential client.
Maravilloso lugar , comida casera como antaño la cual cada vez escasea más por desgracia , un gusto conversar con sus dueños y estar en la terraza disfrutando del sonido del Río y su paz.

Family restaurant. Authentic food, all homemade. We thought we cannot eat all, but it is so good, and in fact not heavy. I would definitely recommend this place.
