Meseguera - Trujillo

Meseguera is a beautiful restaurant along one end of Plaza Mayor, with some very nice touches, including the dinnerware and napkins. I was seated at an intimate table beneath the stairs, which felt very cozy. There were a couple of other tables filled, some already eating while they watched a fútbol match on a mobile phone, and others still deciding what to have. The menu was a QR code that was nicely displayed on a small wooden box; I scanned it, and looked over the offerings. I ordered a vermut while I made up my mind, and ended up having Pluma Ibérica, which is a cut of Iberian pork, taken from the back, near to the neck. Pluma means feather in Spanish, The name of this selection comes from the shape of the cut; it comes to a point at one end, much like a feather. The meal was plated wonderfully, with zucchini, potato, carrot, and tomato on a small skewer, next to the wonderfully done pork. It was cooked just as it should be, seared on the outside, and medium rare on the inside, with salt flakes across the top. The flavor was perfect, and I had to force myself to take my time and enjoy every bite. The dessert menu had so many choices, many of which I had tried before, so I picked something new; the milhojas con mousse de chocolate y frutas rojas (mille-feuille with chocolate mousse and red berries). The flaky pastry was filled with a light chocolate mousse, covered in strawberries, with dark chocolate chips alongside. To say that it was heavenly would be a disservice to exactly how good it was. This is a great place to have a meal, and be treated like someone special.

The food was not up to the standards we expect in Spain. This was more of a tourist trap. They brought large cold pieces of bread in a paper bag. Never seen that before. It looked like it was more for the show. The bread was hard, cold and tasteless. We chose this place because it had tables outside and it was right on the Plaza Mayor. We just sat down where tables were available and it happened to be their restaurant. The sever did not come around to see how things were going. He had a very I don't care kind of attitude and stood far away from where he could at least act like he cared about the people he was waiting on. Avoid.

We really appreciated our lunch at Meseguera ! Altgough it's situated on the main square (u may think it's just a touristic restaurant) we loved the food that we found very creative and tasty ! We had the 22.5 euros menu and we were pleasantely surprise by the quality. Do not hesitate to eat inside, the room is nicely decorated. Very professional service and wine as well.

Aterrizamos en este restaurante por casualidad,ahora leyendo las reseñas me alegro de haber topado con el, la comida está muy buena,es cierto que pedimos poco, era para cenar, solo éramos dos y estábamos cansados, pedimos tabla de quesos y carpaccio de gambas al ajillo, estaba buenísimo! No había mucha gente, al ser lunes por la noche, con lo que el ambiente era bueno, la decoración es muy bonita y la atención de Santi de 10!!!sin duda repetiría a la hora de comer para poder probar más cosas. Recomendable 100

Un restaurante increíble. Entramos porque nos dio muy buen feeling el camarero cuándo salió a reponer fuera y justo estábamos mirando la carta. Y ese feeling finalmente fue un gran acierto. Camareros muy amables y atentos. Comida de buena calidad. Plato estrella: bombón de jamón ibérico (una delicia de la tierra). Totalmente recomendable para turistas como nosotros.
