Restaurante Juan Simon, located in Ventas de Arraitz, is a fine dining spot that specializes in traditional Navarran cuisine. The establishment boasts a charming ambiance and interior design that transports diners to a bygone era. The place has been serving customers for many years and is highly recommended to those seeking a taste of authentic local dishes. The menu features a variety of dishes made with high-quality ingredients, such as the fritos (a type of fried dish) which are absolutely exceptional, and the hongos (mushrooms) that are cooked to perfection. Other standout dishes include the txuri eta beltz (a dish made with black and white beans), the paloma (pigeon), and the cuajada ahumada (smoked curd cheese).
