At a glance
Arrocería La Genuina de Cimadevilla is a rice-focused restaurant and bar on C. Cimadevilla in Oviedo. Its menu centres on rice dishes prepared in several styles, with seafood and meat options alongside a broader selection of starters, main courses and desserts. The cooking combines a casual restaurant format with the sociable character of a bar where drinks and tapas form part of the experience.
Rice is the main reason to visit. The menu includes recipes built around fish, shellfish and other ingredients from the sea, as well as more regional meat-led preparations. This range makes the restaurant suitable for diners who prefer different types of rice at the table, while the wider menu gives non-rice eaters further choices. Starters include croquettes and other shareable dishes, creating an easy format for a meal that begins with small plates before moving on to a rice course.
The atmosphere is informal and convivial. The bar works as a meeting point for drinks and tapas, while the dining room provides a setting for longer meals and shared dishes. The restaurant also presents menus designed for two people and options for groups, making rice the centre of a social meal rather than a solitary order. Advance booking is sensible, particularly when a group needs a planned table or when the meal is being organised around one of the rice menus.
La Genuina’s style is based on familiar ingredients, generous shared courses and a menu with enough variety to suit different appetites. Seafood rice dishes are a natural choice for diners looking for coastal flavours, while meat-based recipes offer a different route through the menu. Tapas and drinks make the bar useful for a shorter stop, and the restaurant format suits diners who want a more complete meal.
Located in the Cimadevilla area of Oviedo, the venue is a practical choice for a relaxed lunch, dinner, drinks or a gathering with friends and family. Its focus on rice, its separate group menus and its combination of bar and dining-room service give it a clear identity within Asturias’s casual dining scene.
