El Olivo

Top choice in Viñales


Viñales' most popular restaurant, as the happy buzz of conversation will testify, serves tremendous lasagna and pasta dishes, backed up by other Med classics such as duck à l'orange. The salads topped with goat's cheese and dried fruits are spectacular, while the joker in the pack is the rabbit dressed with herbs in a dark chocolate sauce.

The secret? Olivo is a genuine farm-to-table affair. Most of what you eat here comes from its own farm, 3km up the road. If you liked what you ate, go and see where it came from.
