Simple restaurant beside the Rey lagoon, 50 m from the Hundimiento waterfall: daily set menu and twenty combination plates at lunchtime, à la carte in the evening.

On the shore of the Rey lagoon
La Perca Rosa is on the N-430, km 414.2, at the entrance to Ruidera, on the shore of the Rey lagoon, the first in the park as you arrive at the village. About 50 metres away is the Hundimiento, the waterfall of about 15 metres that formed when the great flood of San Lucas in 1545 broke the tufa barrier that dammed the lagoon. It is a simple restaurant, with home-style La Mancha food, and its selling point is the location: you eat with the lagoon in front of you and the waterfall beside you.
At lunchtime, menu or combination plate
At lunchtime it has a daily set menu with several starters and mains to choose from, and a long list of combination plates, about twenty, for eating quickly between one walk and another. There is a bit of everything: four lamb chops with potatoes and egg; hake with potatoes and peas with ham; a quarter chicken; rabbit with garlic; beef steak; squid with hake and potato salad; cuttlefish and swordfish; chorizo and blood sausage with egg; mixed grill of meat or entrecôte. Also partridge in escabeche and a portion of paella, which is to order. The website does not publish prices: ask when you sit down.
In the evening, à la carte
For dinner, the house switches to a menu with more elaborate dishes. It does not publish it, so ask about the contents at the table or by phone.
Hours and phone numbers
Its website gives hours of 9:00 to 23:00 every day, which also lets you have breakfast before heading out on an activity. That website is not updated often, so outside summer call beforehand. The landline it publishes is 926 528 027; its Google profile also gives the mobile 646 45 04 51.
What is a few steps away
The Hundimiento can be seen on foot from the door. The walk along the Rey, Colgada and Batana lagoons starts right here, and the kayak on the Colgada lagoon leaves from the centre of Ruidera, a couple of minutes away. If you are sleeping nearby, the Hotel Matías is on the same Rey lagoon.

Qué pedir: At lunchtime, the daily menu; in a hurry, a combination plate such as the lamb chops or the rabbit with garlic; the paella, to order
