Family restaurant 2 km from El Castell on the Callosa road, with views of the village and Aitana: traditional and market cooking.

The Nou Salat is at kilometre 2 of the road that goes down from El Castell de Guadalest to Callosa d'en Sarrià, a few minutes' walk from the village. It is a family house: José Sales and Amelia Gomis opened it when they left the Venta El Salat, which they had run for sixteen years, and today their children work in it too.
El Castell seen from the table
The dining room has views of El Castell, the Xortà, Bernia and Aitana mountains and the cultivated terraces that surround it. It is a good reason to eat here after having been up there: you see the rock and the bell tower you have just walked.
Market cooking from a valley family
The town council defines it as traditional, market cooking. It doesn't publish a menu or prices, and the house has no website of its own, so what is on that day you will find out at the table or by phone. If you are looking for a particular dish of the valley, ask when you book on 965 88 50 19 or write to nou.salat@gmail.com.
Opening hours: better to confirm
The municipal listing gives two time slots, from 10:00 to 16:00 and from 20:00 to 23:00, under the label "winter/summer", without saying whether dinners are summer only. Other listings that are not the restaurant's own give different hours and some weekday closing days. With that doubt, call before going, especially if you plan to have dinner or if you go on a weekday out of season.
Who it's for and when
It suits those travelling by car through the valley: it is a natural stop on the way down from the castle towards Callosa, Les Fonts de l'Algar or the coast. If you eat here, you leave the upper village for the morning, when there are fewer people, and the afternoon for the water: kayaking on the reservoir in summer or the Algar pools. To sleep nearby without leaving that road, El Molinet del Governador is between Guadalest and Callosa.

Qué pedir: traditional market cooking from the Sales Gomis family
