'Magnificent' and tremendous' were just two of the words used to describe brothers Tom and Owen Morgan's Cardiff-based Spanish grill Asador 44 by The Telegraph's top restaurant reviewer William Sitwell.
Sitwell complimented the restaurant - which has sister sites Bar 44 in Penarth and Cardiff as well as boutique hotel above, Parador 44 - greatly before he delved into a myriad of dishes that transported him and his dining partner Emily to the coast of Spain.
Describing the setting he wrote: "The establishment is a mix of oak flooring, white tiles, whitewashed brickwork and steel joists. As you sink into comfortable leather seats and banquettes, your eyes are drawn to large fridges ageing huge cuts of meat, shelves of fat cookbooks, little rooms filled with wine and, behind glass, chefs tempering fire and smoke. The intent is clear. We will satisfy your inner cave-person."
