Sidrería La Costa
Asturias
At a glance
Sidrería La Costa is a Gijón restaurant combining the traditional sidrería format with a grill-led menu. Its main focus is premium meat, with a selection of beef cuts that includes familiar steakhouse options and Argentine-style cuts. Diners can choose the preferred point of cooking, while the staff can explain the character and origin of the different cuts before the order is settled.
The grill is supported by a broader menu of salads, seafood and homemade desserts. Seafood options include grilled preparations and shellfish, while the dessert selection follows a traditional, generous style with recipes based on chocolate, dulce de leche, custard and fruit. A daily menu of home-style cooking adds a straightforward option for a weekday meal.
As a sidrería, the restaurant serves classic cider alongside cider with Denominación de Origen status. The wine list is another important part of the offering, giving the meal a choice beyond cider and matching the restaurant's emphasis on grilled meat. The overall character is centred on produce, cooking point and advice about the menu rather than on a highly formal dining experience.
The venue is on Avenida de la Costa, in the Centro area of Gijón, Asturias. It also has a broad outdoor terrace during the warmer part of the year, making it suitable for meals that benefit from an open-air setting. The restaurant works for diners looking for grilled beef, cider and wine, as well as for those who prefer a mixed menu with salads, seafood or traditional desserts.
Reservations are available, and the restaurant does not accept bachelor or bachelorette party bookings. Service is divided between lunch and evening periods, with the venue closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. For a meal focused on the grill, the most useful choice is to allow time for the staff to explain the available cuts and then select the preferred cooking point.
