    Everything was excellent. Went here twice and loved it every time. Reasonable price for great food. My favorite was the octopus and flan :) Sangria and sweet wine was a nice pairing.

    Great place to experience tapas, especially when traveling by yourself. Get a seat at the bar and enjoy great tapas and wine and very friendly service in a great atmosphere.

    Wonderful ambiance. Tapas and Pinxtos Bar with a varied selection that you just point to select. Friendly service and they spoke English even though I tried in my muddled Spanish.

    Wow what an amazing service.... The staff all entertained our baby...one lovely girl even took her next door and came back with a teddy bear for her. Just stopped for a drink but the staff and their hospitality really is hard to find. Wow! 6 stars deserved not 5

    The service and the quality of the food were outstanding. However, the quantities per servings were scarce, in my opinion. That's the reason why I give 4 instead of 5 stars. Especially taking into account that we spend 48€ for 2 pers. and we left with a bit of hunger. We had 2 glasses of wine, two desserts, pimentos de padrón, pulpo (very small portion, though), ensaladilla rusa, and langostinos al ajillo (also very small, we counted only 5 langostinos). It is a very touristic place. They should, however, be more generous with the servings.

    I know we are near the coast but the seafood here was really amazing. The simple grill and seasoning really bring out the best of the seafood. Standing at the bar ordering was amazing too. The friendly chef behind the tapas counter was really friendly too.

    Very tasty and fresh food. I recommend to try dessert with white cream, it was amazing 🤤. And here I had the best service in Spain. I don't remember names of waiter's, but it was two small girls, they was smiling and giving amazing atmosphere in this restaurant, thank you.

    I've been here twice in one weekend whilst visiting Santiago and both times was delicious. I ordered a number of different dishes, and each was a decent size and really yummy. I'd definitely make this a regular place of mine if I lived here.

    Nice place. Best tapas I had in Santiago! Kind and attentious staff. Must try vieiras with langostine, also the tortilla was incredible!

  • 5/5 Matei B. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was lovely and served fast. I ordered the local octopus with potatoes, Padrón peppers and some croquettes. Tbf it was a bit much even though they are Tapas. It looked like the deserts were also sought after but sadly not much space left 😅

    Best food I’ve had in Spain so far. I had a mini burger that was good enough that I ordered a second. I also had a pork lollipop which was yummy as well. My wife and I shared an order of pimentos Padrón, which are just better here in their native region. We ate on the back patio, which was calm and shady. Would absolutely come back.

    Very good seafood and different variety! Not expensive! Definitely recommend if you like seafood! - try the scallops and the king prawns … (For 2 people - we ordered around 5-6 portions of scallops and prawns; 2 glasses of wine and 2 beers, we paid €64)

    Really great tapas restaurant in the center of Santiago, just a few minutes away from the Cathedral. We tried the famous octopus, worth it 100%, their shrimps were also delicious and we ordered a Spanish tortilla (potato omelette)which you can order as you want. We had ours very soft which we loved! The restaurant is mostly full of tourists but I guess if you are a tourist should not be a problem :) the staff was really lovely and we had some Albariño wine. We were full at the end and the price really acceptable for the quality! It’s a shame it’s till pandemic times and you have to seat on a table and can’t stay on the bar for a quick bite.

    We stopped by here for a quick snack. The tapas we got were OK, but far from the best we've had here so -1 star. Service was friendly and fast, and the prices were right.

    Really great Tapa and fabulous service make this a great choice in Santiago. Every dish was superb and there is a really good selection to choose from.

  • 4/5 Albert J. 1 year ago on Google
    We went on a late Friday night hoping to grab something to eat. We got a couple of estrella Galicia to drink and two tapas. Ensaladilla and pulpo were the chosen ones. The produce was good quality and it was well cooked although the ensaladilla is not the most complex dish ever. Service was quick and efficient for the amount of people eating and drinking at that time. A bit expensive but I guess it's normal given the location.

    I have been to a few cities in Spain and I think this place has one of the best tapas assortment I have ever tried. Also, The stuff is very friendly and the venue has a nice terrace. I would definitely visit again when in Santiago

    Great servings at very good prices. The dishes are all of excellent quality. The staff were very attentive. The place is worth visiting for its décor as well. We'll surely repeat!

  • 5/5 Stephen B. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent drinks, tapas and postres!

  • 5/5 Paul g. 2 years ago on Google
    Great tapas bar. The food is fab and service is good too. Depending on where you sit you can actually see the chefs cook your food. It’s quite cool. Patatas bravas was as good as anywhere and they’ve got venison on the menu as a small portion tapas. Wow! I’d go back for sure

    A great experience here. Great food and wine selections. Friendly and helpful staff. We would recommend it to any friends who propose visiting Santiago de Compostella. In the event of a return visit we make this a priority stop. Highlight of our visit.

    For being bang in the middle of the touristic restaurant area i was definitely impressed by the quality (and quantity)of the food and the very reasonable prices!

  • 3/5 L&R D. 1 year ago on Google
    Tapas bar with modern interior. A little to bright to my taste. Staff is friendly and fast. Food is somewhere in between. Not special or great and not bad. Prices moderator.

  • 5/5 John B. 1 year ago on Google
    Great tapas, drinks, and desserts. Broad selection, great service, and tons of traditional options. There are hot or cold options for all tastes. The menu was only in Spanish but the servers were all pleasant and helpful. Very accessible option for a snack or full meal, but a lovely location and traditional feel. Well worth the stop for a little bite and a cidra! We loved the choricitos a la Sidra, Langley I is al ajillo, and tortilla de patata. The flan and coffee were a perfect way to finish the meal.
