18 restaurants in Córdoba, editor-picked for restaurants open sunday. Where to eat a sit-down dinner on sunday. All restaurants in Córdoba.

Bodegas Campos ★ 4.5

ribera · Calle Lineros 32, 14002 Córdoba

Hours: Daily 13:30-16:00, 20:00-23:00

Bodegas Campos has poured in Córdoba since 1908, a warren of patios and barrel-signed rooms off Calle Lineros serving rabo de toro and salmorejo.

Tip: Ask to walk through the barrel rooms before you sit; the signed butts are a century of visiting names.

El Churrasco ★ 4.5

juderia · Calle Romero 16, 14003 Córdoba

Hours: Daily 13:00-16:00, 20:00-23:30 (evenings from 20:30 in summer)

El Churrasco has grilled Iberian pork over oak charcoal on Calle Romero since 1970, its churrasco cordobés arriving with red and green Arab sauces.

Tip: The house occupies a fourteenth-century Judería building; ask for a table around the patio rather than the front rooms.

Casa Pepe de la Judería ★ 4.4

juderia · Calle Romero 1, 14003 Córdoba

Hours: Sun-Thu 13:00-16:00, 20:00-23:00; Fri-Sat 13:00-16:00, 20:00-00:00

Casa Pepe de la Judería has fed Córdoba since 1928, a taberna downstairs and a roof terrace upstairs that looks straight at the Mezquita tower.

Tip: The roof terrace is the reason to come, so ask for it when you book rather than taking a ground-floor table.

El Envero ★ 4.4

Calle Teruel 21, 14012 Córdoba

Hours: Mon-Sat 12:00-23:00; Sun 09:00-23:00

El Envero cooks contemporary seasonal food out on Calle Teruel with a wine list renewed as often as the menu, a locals' room away from the Judería.

Tip: It sits in a residential quarter north of the centre, so pair it with an evening walk along the Vial Norte rather than the monument circuit.

Sociedad de Plateros San Francisco ★ 4.4

ribera · Calle San Francisco 6, 14003 Córdoba

Hours: Tue-Sat 11:00-16:00, 20:00 until close; Sun 11:30-17:00; Mon closed

The Plateros silversmiths' guild still runs this Córdoba taberna on Calle San Francisco, thick white walls set around a patio under a skylight.

Tip: The staff swap every round plate on the table for a square one when a coeliac sits down.

Taberna La Montillana ★ 4.4

centro · Calle San Álvaro 5, 14003 Córdoba

Hours: Mon-Thu 13:00-18:00, 20:00 until close; Fri-Sun 13:00 until close

Taberna La Montillana has traded on Calle San Álvaro in Córdoba since 1948, bull heads on the walls and Montilla-Moriles wines behind the bar.

Tip: The kitchen rotates a recommendation board, so read it before ordering off the printed carta.

Astoria Casa Matías ★ 4.3

poniente · Calle el Nogal 16, 14006 Córdoba

Hours: Mon-Tue 13:30-18:30; Wed-Sat 13:30-01:00; Sun 13:30-18:30

Astoria Casa Matías cooks spoon stews, dehesa meat and seasonal vegetables in Córdoba, well away from the Mezquita crowds on Calle el Nogal.

Tip: Only Wednesday to Saturday runs past 18:30, so plan a dinner here midweek at your peril.

El Rincón de Carmen ★ 4.3

juderia · Calle Romero 4, 14003 Córdoba

Hours: Wed-Mon 12:30-16:00, 19:30-23:00; closed Tue

El Rincón de Carmen slow-cooks old-style rabo de toro and fries homemade ham croquettes around a Córdoban patio on Calle Romero in the Judería.

Tip: The patio seats fewer than the two dining rooms combined, so name it when you book; the house sources from the Sierra de Córdoba.

Taberna La Viuda ★ 4.3

san-basilio · Calle San Basilio 52, 14004 Córdoba

Hours: Daily 13:00-16:30, 20:00-23:30

Taberna La Viuda works the San Basilio side of Córdoba with more than thirty plates, cheese-stuffed flamenquín among them, and citrus-cured tuna.

Tip: San Basilio wins most of the patio prizes in May, so book here well ahead during the festival.

Casa Rubio ★ 4.2

juderia · Calle Puerta de Almodóvar 5, 14003 Córdoba

Hours: Mon, Thu-Sun 13:00-16:00, 20:00-23:30; Tue-Wed closed

Casa Rubio sits against the Puerta de Almodóvar gate in Córdoba, a 1920 taberna renamed in 1932 and now three floors deep with a wall-view terrace.

Tip: It closes Tuesday and Wednesday, which catches out visitors who assume a Judería taberna opens daily.

Casa Mazal ★ 4.2

juderia · Calle Tomás Conde 3, 14004 Córdoba

Hours: Mon-Tue, Thu, Sun 12:30-16:00, 19:30-23:30; Fri-Sat 12:30-23:30; Wed closed

Casa Mazal cooks the Sefarad and Al-Andalus traditions inside a fourteenth-century Judería house in Córdoba, with no pork anywhere on the carta.

Tip: It closes on Wednesdays, and bookings run through a dedicated reservations line rather than the main house phone.

El Caballo Rojo ★ 4.2

juderia · Calle Cardenal Herrero 28, 14003 Córdoba

Hours: Daily 13:00-16:00, 20:00-00:00

El Caballo Rojo cooks the Mozarabic register of Córdoba a few steps from the Mezquita, a tapas bar below and dining rooms above on Cardenal Herrero.

Tip: It is steps from the Patio de los Naranjos, so book ahead for lunch; the bar takes walk-ins that the dining rooms cannot.

La Cazuela de la Espartería ★ 4.2

corredera · Calle Rodríguez Marín 16, 14002 Córdoba

Hours: Mon-Fri 12:30-16:15, 19:30-00:00; Sat 12:30-16:30, 20:30-00:30; Sun 13:00-16:30

La Cazuela de la Espartería cooks taberna standards beside Plaza de la Corredera, salmorejo, flamenquín, pisto and rabo de toro across its salons.

Tip: Sunday is lunch only and Saturday dinner starts at 20:30, an hour later than on weekdays, so check the clock before you set out.

La Taberna de Almodóvar ★ 4.2

centro · Calle Benito Pérez Galdós 1, 14001 Córdoba

Hours: Mon-Fri 13:00-16:30, 20:30-23:30; Sat 13:30-16:30, 20:30-23:30; Sun 13:30-16:30

La Taberna de Almodóvar pours fino en rama over a wooden bar in central Córdoba, with salmorejo and flamenquín run as the everyday counter order.

Tip: Sunday is lunch only, and the kitchen shuts firmly at 16:30 before the evening service.

La Taberna del Río ★ 4.1

ribera · Calle Enrique Romero de Torres 7, 14002 Córdoba

Hours: Daily 13:00-24:00

La Taberna del Río works a corner off Córdoba's Paseo de la Ribera, rotating art on the walls and a summer roof terrace above the Guadalquivir.

Tip: The kitchen runs straight through from 13:00 to midnight, rare in a city that closes between services.

Bodegas Mezquita Céspedes ★ 4.1

juderia · Calle Céspedes 12, 14003 Córdoba

Hours: Daily 12:30-23:30, kitchen open all day

Bodegas Mezquita keeps its Céspedes kitchen open all day at the foot of the Mezquita, plating salmorejo, caliphal aubergines and Pedroches oxtail.

Tip: The kitchen runs straight through from 12:30 to 23:30, which makes this the Judería fallback when everything else is between services.

Mesón San Basilio ★ 4.1

san-basilio · Calle San Basilio 19, 14004 Córdoba

Hours: Tue-Sat 13:00-16:00, 20:00-23:30; Sun 13:00-16:00; Mon 20:00-23:00

Mesón San Basilio serves Córdoban home cooking around a patio in the Alcázar Viejo quarter, fried aubergines, salmorejo and rabo de toro leading.

Tip: It sits in the patios district of San Basilio, so pair lunch here with the whitewashed courtyard streets rather than the Mezquita crowds.

Casa Palacio Bandolero ★ 4.0

juderia · Calle Torrijos 6, 14003 Córdoba

Hours: Daily 09:30-00:00

Casa Palacio Bandolero fills a sixteenth-century palace facing the Mezquita, cooking white gazpacho, salmorejo and artichokes in Moriles wine.

Tip: The two patios are the reason to come; on a summer night ask for the terrace beside the Mezquita entrance rather than an interior salon.
