Gastronomical Delights

Great place, I knew I would not be disappointed. Located in the lovely old part of the town of Briones, in an emblematic building of the 17th century, this restaurant, also a rural cottage, is picturesque and welcoming.

Actually, the name of the restaurant comes from the "calaos" of the building. The "calaos" are the places formerly used for the aging and ripening of wine, some kind of natural or artificial cave used to stock and preserve wine. The "calaos" of the restaurant date back to a wine cellar of the 17th century and have been rebuilt in a great way.

As you can see, the place is charming and has history. You realize it as soon as you enter through one of the two doors. You could say there are three areas with two dining rooms. There is an independent round table on the right of the entrance in San Juan Street. The larger dining room is behind curtains. It is the largest room of the restaurant, an authentic "calao"; and finally, in the back of this large room, on the right side, going down stairs that seem full of mystery, you arrive to another very quiet dining room, without a doubt a very special one.

Perfect to Sail in the Cuisine of La Rioja

Briones is the perfect village to arrive in the morning, visit it and end up tasting some local dish in one of the good restaurants. One of them, Los Calaos, is for sure a quality restaurant that has all the necessary ingredients that makes it unforgettable.

The atmosphere is special, as if you were in the cave of a wine cellar of La Rioja. The service is fantastic. And the food... Delicious. It is the ideal place to sail in the cuisine of La Rioja: good cold meat, asparagus, potatoes "a la riojana".. and the meat, the meat! Of course, everything is accompanied with Rioja wine. The wine

Quite Good

We went there today and I must say the service was very good. Quality, elaborated dishes and variety in a charming place. I highly recommend this restaurant. It is true that it is not one of the cheapest, but it is not expensive either if you look at the value and price relationship.
