La Rebotica

Top choice in Extremadura


This refined restaurant in the heart of Zafra's old town delivers with its traditional meaty menu (note the innovative twists) and subtly sophisticated setting among wall mirrors and leather chairs. Dine on elegantly prepared rabo de toro (oxtail) and different pork dishes, plus a few seafood or veggie options; finish with outstanding desserts. Reservations recommended.
