Dinner at CA JOAN ALTEA

on 23 Jun 2020

by Margaret Lam

Once again I needed to exercise my Betsubara for desserts as I was 120% full with the savory courses. And once again I went straight to Tarta de queso (cheesecake) and torrija and I was not disappointed. In fact the cheesecake (pic 1-2) was among one of the best I had and the torrija (pic 3-6) too was moist and sweet, super delicious.

Overall I think Ca Joan was not just a steak temple and super aging beef specialist but a all around very high caliber restaurant. The room is casual and inviting (pic 7-9) and the owner was friendly and proud to show us his beef. Although he does not speak English his gestures were enough for us to feel welcome. I really enjoyed this meal at Cajoan and would recommend it beef or meat enthusiasts.

Lunch at Ca Joan

on 24 Feb 2019

by Tamas Ferencz

We went to Ca’ Joan for a lunch on a nice and sunny Sunday. The restaurant has a small but cozy dining room and the huge terrace . The staff was nice but on the day we have visited, the restaurant clearly did not have enough waiting staff. Because of that the service was falling apart, different staff members came to our table in a completely wrong rhythm.

We went to Ca’ Joan for a lunch on a nice and sunny Sunday. The restaurant has a small but cozy dining room and the huge terrace . The staff was nice but on the day we have visited, the restaurant clearly did not have enough waiting staff. Because of that the service was falling apart, different staff members came to our table in a completely wrong rhythm.
The Ca’ Joan is a traditional family run steakhouse but on the menu you can find a wide variety of seafood dishes as well. They work with the best quality spanish matured beef, Mediterranean sea products and the highest quality, local ingredients.
We have ordered the red tuna tartare and a grilled artichoke with iberian ham for starter, for main we have shared a 6 months matured, spanish cut steak (chuleton).
The artichoke with the iberian ham was a little bit disappointing, it was underseasoned, the red tuna tartare had to many citric flavour therefore it was too acidy. The steak was 1,2 kg piece of Rubia Gallega D.O. cow meat after the cut, it was beautifully cooked from a good quality meat.
We might give another go once again if we are in the area. Less
