Restaurant: SVGAR

The charming town of Laguardia is home to a culinary treasure in Rioja Alavesa that makes the hearts of connoisseurs beat faster: the SVGAR restaurant. The name, Basque for "flame", is not just a word here, but pure passion. Aitor and Adriana have made it their mission to share the full splendour of their homeland - from the flavours to the warmth - with every guest.

Here, dishes and wines merge magically with the soul of the surroundings. Aitor is all about connecting with the people of the region. The specialities on the menu come from the surrounding farms and wineries, whose wines he proudly serves in his shop. The selected wine list includes almost 2,000 varieties. The wine cellar is a tribute to the passion for good products in the Alavesa region.

For the SVGAR team, the greatest reward is the pure satisfaction of their guests - a feeling that only true hosts know and that reflects the deep connection to their work and their homeland. A visit promises not only culinary delights, but also a warm encounter with the soul of Spain.
