The menu at Taberna La Ermita feels like a confident celebration of traditional Spanish flavors with a distinctly Murcian soul, balancing hearty classics and lighter, refreshing plates. The experience naturally pairs well with Vino, which sets the tone for a menu built around sharing and contrast. Small bites such as Pincho de Morcilla Con Dulce de Tomate and Pincho de Huevo de Codorniz Y Patatas stand out for their rustic simplicity, while Pincho de Bacalao Y Tomate and Pincho de Atún Con Aguacate Y Salsa de Mango introduce a fresher, coastal note. Local recipes shine through dishes like Zarangollo, Alcachofas Con Crema de Puerros, and Gazpacho Marinero, all of which highlight seasonal vegetables and regional technique, alongside the classic Gazpacho Andaluz, perfect for cleansing the palate. More substantial options such as Solomillo, Milhoja de Carne, Lasaña de Morcilla, and the slow-cooked Pata de Cordero Al Horno give the menu real depth and comfort, clearly aimed at diners looking for satisfying, traditional mains. The Murcian identity comes through again in Tosta Chato Murciano, while Croquetas de Pollo Caseras deliver the familiar, crowd-pleasing crunch expected of a well-executed tapas menu. Lighter, visually appealing plates like Timbal de Mango Y Aguacate Con Tomate Cherry balance out the richer dishes, making the menu feel complete rather than heavy. Desserts continue the classic approach, with Tarta de la Abuela offering nostalgic sweetness, Leche Frita Con Helado de Turrón combining creaminess and warmth, and Melón Con Cava Y Sorbete de Limón providing a refreshing finish. To round things off, Queso Curado Con Frutos Secos Y Uva works equally well as a dessert or a final savory bite. Overall, the menu feels thoughtfully curated, grounded in tradition, and designed for diners who appreciate honest flavors, generous portions, and a strong sense of place.
