fantastic place where to eat fish! maravilloso restaurante donde comer pez!
Also known as Tio de la Tiza. This is a consistently very good, almost excusively seafood restaurant. It is set in an airy beautiful little square and is a very pleasant space to spend an evening. One of our favourite places to eat in Cádiz. You do need to book ahead here a day or two in advance and do request an outside table when booking. Really good food and very friendly service is why it is nearly always full, mostly of local people, always a good sign. Highly recommend the side dishes or starters of Patas Alinas - potato salad in a very tasty vinaigrette, and also the Pimentos fritos - fried green peppers, both are delicious. The almejas marinara (clams) here are excellent also. Great place to try a whole grilled fish, the Dorada / Black Sea Bream is a great and reasonably priced choice. However I would not recommend the Salmonettes, a small mudfish that tasted to me, well, like mud !! Update-July 2024 - two visits, both excellent

If you want to eat outside you might get tempted to eat on nearby Calle Virgen de la Palma, which is a lovely place to watch the world go by, but I have yet to find a consistently good restaurant on it. La Dorada has been good, but the last time I was there I was massively disappointed. Meson Criollo is an ok place which has a few Argentinian specialties but recently my son was served frozen fish, which I think is unforgivable in Cádiz. The other places on this street are more miss than hit and get away with serving unimaginative crap to tourists, which is a shame. (However, if you have a good experience in one of these restaurants, I'd love to hear about it!) However, Tío de la Tiza is consistently good. It doesn't look anything special at all but it's always crammed with locals, which should tell you everything you need to know. Don't look for anything fancy here; they serve very simple fresh food (predominantly seafood) that is well cooked and cheap. Professional and friendly service coupled with its reliability is why it is always full when the weather is good. You will definitely need to book ahead here on a sunny weekend. If it's hot, ask for a shady table as some of them are hit hard by the sun in the height of summer. Try a caballa con pipirrana (locally caught mackerel with a refreshing diced salad of peppers, cucumber, tomatoes and onion) for €6 or a simply grilled dorada (black bream). The almejas (clams) here are very good also. The only downside here is a limited wine list.
