Why go

About Casa Cristina
Casa Cristina in Tellego is a direct choice for traditional Asturian home-style cooking. The essentials are simple: lunch service only, a casual dress code, and a price of $26 per person. Choose it if the goal is a traditional midday meal built around regional dishes rather than a formal dining experience.
The draw is the cooking itself: fabada asturiana, pote asturiano, fabes con almejas, fish soup, traditional stews, and homemade desserts. Those dishes make Casa Cristina most appealing to diners who want classic Asturian flavors in a casual setting.
The Asturian lunch is the reason to go
The cooking is traditional Asturian home-style food, not a confirmed tasting-menu experience. That distinction matters when deciding whether Casa Cristina fits the occasion. It is a casual lunch choice for diners who want hearty regional dishes and a clear sense of place in Tellego.
Casa Cristina is associated with classic Asturian dishes such as fabada asturiana, pote asturiano, fabes con almejas, fish soup, traditional stews, and homemade desserts.

For travelers looking for one traditional Asturian meal in Tellego, the appeal is direct: familiar regional cooking, a modest per-person price, and lunch-only hours.
The focus is on the food details
A clear way to understand the restaurant is as a food-led, casual lunch venue where the main reason to go is traditional Asturian home-style cooking.
For a low-key occasion, this creates a clear positioning. Choose it for a relaxed lunch centered on fabada asturiana, pote asturiano, fabes con almejas, fish soup, traditional stews, and homemade desserts. Skip it if the occasion depends on a formal service style, a confirmed tasting-menu structure, or a documented drinks program.
