Under a massive cliff overhang in Setenil de las Bodegas, Bar Fasquito delivers exactly the kind of dramatic, rustic dining the town is famous for. Only Scrans visited for *I Ate In Spain's WEIRDEST Towns!*, noting that the spot serves "incredible grilled meats and local specialties" in a setting that’s both delicious and memorable. The barbecue is the star here: the Barbacoa Ibérica para Dos is a generous platter of smoky, charred meats, while the Flamenquín con Salsa Carbonara offers a creamy, indulgent twist on a classic Andalusian roll. A plate of local Queso de Oveja and Morcilla (blood sausage) round out the menu, plus the more unusual Lagarto—a grilled cut of meat that adventurous eaters will want to try.
This is a place that thrives on simplicity and location. The cliffside dining room is part of the experience—literally built into the rock—and the 4.6-star rating reflects that blend of atmosphere and honest cooking.

Barbacoa Ibérica para Dos
The Iberian barbecue for two is a massive platter of grilled meats. I have no idea what everything is, but it's all brilliant. The black pudding is outstanding, the char is perfect, and there's a cut of pork called lizard that is ridiculous.
Flamenquín con Salsa Carbonara
This flamenquín with carbonara sauce is really good comfort food. Inside it's pork loin wrapped around ham and egg, then deep fried, and they lather on this carbonara sauce. It's creamy and satisfying.
Queso de Oveja
The sheep cheese tastes a bit like Parmesan, I thought it would be grilled but it's still nice. Great for grating over pasta.
Morcilla
The black pudding has a great charred flavour, really outstanding. I love it.
Lagarto
The lizard cut of pork is absolutely ridiculous. I don't know exactly which meat it is, but it's fantastic.
