The general advice in choosing a restaurant is to head for somewhere that's full of locals. This place is. The queue to get in often stretched into the street. However, the service is quick, tables turn quickly, so there isn't a long wait. This is not a place to linger for a romantic evening out. It's a place to enjoy superbly cooked fresh sea-food in large quantities at very reasonable prices, with good local wine. That's what everyone is doing. There's a member of staff whose job for the evening is to fish octopuses out of a giant drum of stock where they have been marinating, cut them up with scissors, plate them up and dress them. It's that kind of place. The octopus is superb. As were the calamari. As were the peppers. As was everything. Ate here twice.

My son and his wife live in Pontevedra, as we were visiting we decided to eat out and they took us there. Magnificent choice! We asked for something to share ending up with "empanada de zamburiñas", "covered eggs", goat cheese ice cream salad and, finally, a cheese selection which the owner personalize for your personal taste. To go with our food we asked for a local red wine from Monterrei which resulted wonderful.I have to say that everything was absolutely great, specially the cheeses.I truly recommend this place if you like great informal food in old Pontevedra downtown.

Pepita is born with a clear objective: revolutionize the traditional hamburger. We simply bet on first class meat made on the grill, accompanied by the best and freshest ingredients, combined in a surprising way. This is not a fast food establishment but

This place has a great variety of burgers with many meats and toppings. Our burgers were fresh and tasty. No filler in the meat here this is a good quality burger! The staff was friendly and the atmosphere pleasant.

Its decoration is modern but tasty and comfy. It's not very big so I advise advance booking because it's trendy and gets full on weekends. It serves tasty oversized tapas with a touch of Japan, Oriental, local. The quality is very good as is the taste. One of the waiters made a mistake with our order and brought undesired spicy pasta but corrected it very quickly when informed, offering any other dish in exchange free of charge and apologies -all very nicely and professionally done. I'd especially reccommend the tempura (simply delicious) and the tostas. The dessert -brownie- was delectable though not too big. Maybe one critic would be the quantity in the soft drink bottles, a bit scanty -22cl- for my taste, makes it look a bit mean, for the rest no complaints. I find it reasonably priced as well. Easy to eat fairly for some 15 euros each.

The restaurant is centrally located although hidden away in a basement: you have to be looking for it to find it. The food was excellent and had a contemporary twist: we particularly liked the fajitas. There is a very decent selection of wines by the glass. Would visit again.

We have visited Pontevedra many times. Decided to treat ourselves and eat somewhere new. What a lovely experience. Lots of gluten free choices. Amuse bouche to start. Then scallops ceviche with soya sauce absolutely delicious, roast cod. The best for me was the coffee desert with liqueur.. absolutely blew my mind-recommended by waiter. One of the best deserts I have ever tasted. â¬105 for 2. Worth every penny.The service was perfect the waiters gave explanation and recommendations. My husband unfortunately had been stung by a bee and they kindly wrapped an ice cube in cling film to soothe chin! Thank you.

Used TripAdvisor recommendation to find and try this interesting restaurant in the historic quarter of Pontevedra. They have interesting multi cuisine fusion choices on the menu and unique drink specialties. I tried their âfogar dos peixesâ drink which comes in a small fishbowl and has little cutout shapes of fish made of orange and lime peel that float in the blue colored drink. Very attentive service in a cool environment.

It makes a real difference when you go to a restaurant and the treatment is good. The food was great, but even if it was not as great as it really was, the treatment experience was worth to remember. I would just say that it is the first time in my life that I requested the a la Carta and they convinced me to get the more affordable menu, which was delicious and very complete. A+++

Es la segunda vez que vamos. La primera fue cena a la carta y nos sorprendió muchÃsimo tanto por la calidad del producto como por la elaboración excelente y riquÃsimo y por supuesto el trato. Pero esta vez fuimos a mediodÃa 6 personas a la carta pero con una oferta del, tenedor y nos encantó igualmente y además no hubo ningún tipo de diferencia en calidad ni cantidad ni trato recibido pese a ir con una oferta en los platos de la carta. Con lo cual salimos encantadisimos. Además probamos otros platos y todo estaba de 10. La corbina muy buena. Los tacos de salmon y el besugo marinado riquÃsimo. Volveremos muchas veces!!!!
