Asador 44 Menu

Asador 44 is a Spanish grill and wine house at 14–15 Quay Street in central Cardiff. The warm red brick building contains an open kitchen where the fire and grill are visible parts of the dining experience. Its position close to the Principality Stadium makes it central, while the wood lined rooms retain an intimate, restaurant focused atmosphere.

Charcoal and different types of wood are used to cook fish, seafood, dry aged steaks, lamb and seasonal vegetables. Smaller plates such as croquetas, cured meat, olives and charred bread can begin a meal before larger individual or sharing dishes. The menu draws particularly on northern Spanish asador traditions, where carefully sourced produce and direct fire do most of the work.

Vegetarian and vegan dishes include rice and fire roasted vegetables, giving meat free diners more than a token side dish. All major allergens are present in the kitchen, so the restaurant asks guests to identify allergies when booking and again before ordering. Set, children’s, Sunday, breakfast and large party menus provide different formats around the core grill.

The wine list is extensive and almost entirely Spanish, offering regional bottles to match both seafood and aged beef. Sherry, vermouth, beer and other drinks broaden the pairing options, while cheese and desserts complete the meal. Asador 44 is most rewarding for diners who appreciate the flavour of live fire and want to explore Spanish food and wine through high quality Welsh and imported produce.
