"Segovia is famous for cochinillo asado, roasted suckling pig, and ponche segoviano, a sweet treat from the region. Try Mesón Don Jimeno for some local fare."

Lauren Aloise

"I’ve only eaten cochinillo a handful of times, so I don’t have much to compare it to, but wow– it was delicious. My father deemed it the best meal of the trip (debatable, but it was pretty amazing)!"

Kristina Gonzalez

"Cozy and well worth the wait, we left stuffed and happy."

"Post castle, we sat down to rest and eat at Meson Don Jimeno, a restaurant specializing in the local delicacy of roast suckling pig. It’s a baby pig, whose only nurishment has been its mother’s milk, roasted in the oven. It comes out golden brown with crispy skin that cracks apart. Very good."

Mike Yunker

"When looking for what to eat in Segovia, go for the suckling pig (cochinillo), a dish Segovia is famous for. You can find it at a variety of places throughout town, but we’d recommend Mesón Don Jimeno. Go in with an appetite because you’ll get served a full course meal, including the suckling pig."

"After taking dozens of pictures of our perfectly caramelized half pig (none of which apparently turned out), we decide to dive in. Crispy skin, not burnt, not under done. The sweet, delectable meat melted in our mouths. This was a slice of heaven."

Claire Zhao Anderson

"It felt somewhat cruel to be eating an 8-week old baby pig and we were definitely glad it didn’t come whole like in the display. But the meat was melt-in-your-mouth tender and full of flavor, and the golden skin was satisfyingly crispy."

Ernesto Maitim

"I must have found the perfect spot to have lunch (and to taste suckling pig), since they boast of heavenly succulent cochinillo. But, what’s more important, they serve portions."

Jonny Seponara-Sills

"The pork was simply out of this world. It was more than just soft, tender and delicate. It was sweet and frail with the weakness of the womb. Disgustingly so, or it would be, were it not so flavorful, and intensely satisfying."

Audrey Chew Ernern

"Then the moment we were waiting for... the delicious roast suckling pig, cochinillo asado. Regarded as one of the must-eat things of Segovia, the tasty pork comes. Totally recommend this restaurant as they give great food and service as well!"
