"Brilliant place for dinner in Portomarín, just off the main square. The service was very friendly and efficient. All the food was served quite quickly. We shared some different raciones including raxo (pork), zamburiñas (scallops) and classic croquetas. Everything was delicious and well priced. We were even treated to some music as a couple of groups of musicians playing the gaita (bagpipes) showed up creating a nice, fun atmosphere."

"A few steps off the main drag which has most eateries but absolutely worthwhile. Friendly staff with something about them, helpful, smiling and welcoming which we didn’t see walking along the Main Street. The food was good and not the usual ‘Camino’ fast food stuff, (but still good value)."

"Lovely place for an early dinner/late lunch after our walk from Sarria. We had a good server who helped us with the menu and made great recommendations. The tinto de Verano was excellent - so refreshing after the walk. All the plates we ordered were delicious, especially the scallops and tomato salad. Great ambiance sitting outside under umbrellas."
