Casa Emilio - Zaragoza

Never answered our phone calls or messages. Decided to visit it anyway since it was close to our hotel, it was closed even though it said it was opened in the internet. Took a taxi to another restaurant and the driver mentioned that he did not recommend this place to anyone. Very disappointed.

We found this on TripAdvisor when looking for a place to eat while visiting Aljaferia. It is clearly a local restaurant with most of the clientele coming in and being served automatically without menus or discussion. The manager was very patient with our limited Spanish and the food was plentiful and inexpensive. All of us ordered off of the menu del dia and couldn't finish our meals. We enjoyed our venison stew and leg of lamb main dishes as well the starters and dessert along with wine and bottled water all for 9.5 euros per person.

The place does not seem very special neither from the outside nor inside. However once seated the atmosphere is pleasant and the service traditional and sympathetic. The food is simple but good quality. The beef was particularly good. Recommended for a quick lunch.

Lástima que este cerrado, nadie lo ha comunicado. Es una pena, Desde que falleció Emilio Lacambra, no han vuelto a abrir.

Mi más sincero pésame. Siempre que hemos parado en Zaragoza hemos intentado comer en casa Emilio. Una buenísimas personas y un restaurante popular de los que necesitamos tantos.
