    Lovely place with awesome food. All time favourite bar in Vigo!

  • 5/5 Andreia. 5 years ago on Google
    The owner and the employees are super nice and thoughtful! It's a chill but full of vibes place. If you're looking for the local experience this is your place. A kind of spanish pub. Food is super super delicious and superb!!!!! AND... in the end, they offered us chocolates and a glass of the house champagne!

    Legendary place with fantastic service and fantastic classic food options. Handcarved wood features with great detail. Closed on Monday (found out the hard way one time). Open straight through the day into night, no siesta.

    Bustling but fast. Good tapas and bar vibes. Everybody seem to enjoy themselves.

    The food are not well made. We ordered grill mushrooms and was quite burnt (also the scallops). The food in general is very salty. Very disappointed with the tortilla also, one of the worst we ate in Spain. Maybe too many customers in the restaurant, we have been waiting for 20 mins to get attention from the waiters :(

    Best place ever! They bring lots of tapas and it's very good if you like to eat a bit junk food whilst drinking 😅 I absolutely recommend it!

  • 5/5 Mark A. 6 years ago on Google
    Superb bar where you'll find the locals. They serve value for money fresh draught Mahou beer or local wines and are very generous by giving you a fee pincho or two with your drink. Great atmosphere too.

    A Vigo institution. Tons of free and delicious tapas with your extremely cheap drinks. The food that you can order isn’t half bad either.

  • 2/5 Julia C. 1 year ago on Google
    We were waiting so many time for order, then for getting beer. We told one more time because nobody get us our beer, it was maybe half hour of waiting. Then, we order food, and wait one hour? For tapas which is "fast food in Spain". Food was delicious but not worth the waiting..

  • 5/5 David S. 10 months ago on Google

    Great food (more than i asked for at no extra cost) great service, nice atmosphere, would recommend anyone who is visiting Vigo and wants a traditional Spanish vibe.

  • 5/5 Joe A. 5 months ago on Google
    Truly, an excellent tapas dinner. In fact, after 2 months of traveling Europe, this was in our top 3 food experiences. The grilled vegetables platter was superb! Both the fried squid and the octopus were tender and delicious. And our host (I think the owner) was the best ever! Loved it!

  • 5/5 Marlene E. 6 months ago on Google
    A delicious, authentic Spanish meal in a quaint atmosphere! Must try! We asked the owner of 20+ years, Amadeo, to bring out his best and favorite selections, and that he did! Tunafish appetizer, local breads, superb Iberian ham, fried calamari, octopus grilled in olive oil and spices, and flavorful grilled vegetables. Then he brought out two amazing desserts, cooked by their staff the night before. One was a cheesecake that was not overly sweet, and the other was a luscious Vigo grandmother's cake that we will search far and wide for the recipe! The meal was served with the best sangria we've had on this coast of Spain. We are so glad we found this place by searching the reviews. They have a menu of the day, along with many à la carte tapas choices. If you are coming from the port, it is highly worth getting a cab for the 10 minute ride to Imperial!

  • 4/5 Ankurita k. 6 months ago on Google
    I had an amazing time here , specially the tapas are so delicious to enjoy with the drinks. The staff is very polite and humble, however I didn't get any tapas for the next round of the drink which was probably because the place got really crowded. Anyway, I very much enjoyed the whole evening . Definitely worth visiting ❤

  • 5/5 Carlie P. 8 months ago on Google
    Excellent food and fantastic service. Amadeo, the owner, is always attentive and very friendly, carrying the restaurant in his soul, and the quality of tradicional Galician and Spanish food is excellent. Always a brilliant place to go, going with family or friends.

😠 Muy mal servicio, encontre un insecto en mi comida y la camarera cuando se lo dige cogio un cuchillo y arrasto el insecto por todo el plato sin pedir disculpas ni traer un plato nuevo y limpio. Esperando que lo comiera. Scandalous how I ordered a pancake and I got it with a bug in the fruits, when...
