Taberna La Viuda

A recommendation for a calm evening in San Basilio: tuna that melts in your mouth and unbelievably good prawn croquettes.

Taberna La Viuda is on Calle San Basilio, the street that gives our old neighborhood its name, so for us it was practically around the corner. According to its listings it combines traditional flavours with creative, original cooking, in tapas and raciones.

Our verdict

Our rating: ★★★★☆ (4 out of 5)

For a quiet evening meal, this is a recommendation. The tuna melts in your mouth, and the croquetas with prawns are unbelievably good.

What to order

  • The tuna
  • Croquetas with prawns (gambas)
  • From the listing, which we have not tried: sweet-potato croquettes, Russian salad with fried egg and an oxtail flamenquín with chocolate sauce

Good to know

  • It is in San Basilio, the quiet part of the old town
  • Good for a calm night rather than a big party

Address: Calle San Basilio 52, 14004 Córdoba.
