Hot Rock Restaurant

Well, last night we wanted to try something new and ventured down to El Raso where we found The Hot Rock Italian Steak Restaurant. To be honest, I didnt fancy it....but with no other ideas from anyone and time ticking by we decided to go for it and was I glad we did. This was THE best meal we have had anywhere for ages!! Basically, you have a choice of steak (2 sizes), chicken or fish (sea bass or trout)- these are served on a hot rock (sort of a tile thing) which remains hot throughout your meal and basically you cook your food on it!! My husband and I both opted for steak which was the most tender, tasty steak I have ever had. You sort of slice pieces of the steak, which has been seared on the outside and has a gorgeous flavouring on it, and then cook them to your taste. You get 3 sauces and a side order included. The small steak (200g) was €16,90 and trust me it was enough for anyone! My hubby ordered the large steak (300g e21,90) but admitted after that the small one would have been plenty - he ended up sharing the large one with my daughter who had ordered pizza. We both ordered fries as our side but next time I think we would order one fries and then maybe mushrooms or onions. The sides like mushrooms, onions, tomatoes are also cooked on your hot rock and come with an olive oil, honey and mustard (I think)mixture which caramelises as they cook - my mouth was watering when she told us this!! As well as the hot stone meals they also do pizza and pasta. The pepperoni pizza was gorgeous too and definitely home made. Our bill was around €50 and we each had one drink. I didnt feel it was too expensive because the meal was so delicious. The lady serving us who I presume is the owner was extremely friendly and polite. The place is done out lovely and was very clean. We will definitely be back there. It is just behind Stan and Ollies on the roundabout as you go into El Raso. DELICIOUS and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
