Every time I can I eat at this restaurant. It's my favorite for a seafood delight. The “Mariscada” is the best dish and it consists of a plate filled with seafood (for 2 persons). Clam, crabs, shrimp, barnacles, and much more. All in the same plate and very well prepared. The price (50€) is amazingly fair for what it offers.
I recommend this restaurant to any foreigner that happens to be in the north of Spain and can come to La Guardia. Especially if you like seafood but you don't live close to the shore where you can have it more often. If that is so you are in for a treat that you won't forget.

Taperia-Restaurant heated, with a family atmosphere and long tradition in La Guardia (Founded in 1960). It has an extensive menu of tapas and homemade specialties, and an extensive wine list. We characterized our family deal with the client trying that he feels like in home.

We had a really tasty meal at this restaurant. It opens at 8:30pm and by 9:30 it was pretty full, mostly with locals. The octopus, calamari and turbot were well presented and delicious. The service was very friendly and helpful and we were even given cilantro liqueur - a most delicious digestif!

The interior of this place is much better than the outside suggests & commands great views across the Minho. They also have an extensive menu in English with enough options for all our fussy family members - including vegetarian & a Japanese section. The only downside was the service a little slow - though have to say friendly & accommodating to all our requests. We enjoyed our wide variety of options - including Ceviche, shashimi, sushi on top of our other more regular meals. Craft beers available is always a bonus plus some decent wines. The whole thing is good value also.

Our Backroads hiking group stopped here for lunch as we were hiking the Camino. We had the pleasure of sitting on their open-air upper deck, so we had a view of the Atlantic Ocean. Lunch was served family-style; we had salad, fresh rustic bread, clams,...MoreBuenos días, encantados de que les hubiese gustado. Muchas Gracias por la visita y por el comentario. Un saludo

We went here on the basis of the positive TA reviews specially to try the lobster and rice speciality. It didn't disappoint - generous in serving and delicious. The rest of the meal was equally good and the service very pleasant. Slightly meagre offerings in the 100ml glass of wine served, which made it pretty expensive compared to elsewhere.

Great rustic restaurant on the sea front, no thrills environment and quite loud with everyone chatting and a TV in top corner BUT wow what a great place to eat. We have been a few times, last time in April where we enjoyed a large portion of pulpo gallego, simply delicious, washed down with a glass of house vino blanco. It don't get better !!

Al igual que "Casa Pepe España"<br><br>Les rogamos disculpas por todos nuestros sentimientos frustrados. Nuestro bar ha sido un modelo de un régimen el cuál ya no estamos orgulloso del mismo, por ello le volvemos a pedir disculpas. Estamos contentos con todas las comunidades LGTBi, con el planteamiento ideológico de la autodeterminación y sobretodo con una democracia real.<br><br>Nuevamente, recalcamos que nos sentimos profundamente arrepentidos por todo el mal causado en el pasado histórico que nuestro bar haya podido representar.<br><br>¡Viva la democracia!

The restaurant had been recommended by a friend and it lived up to the hype he had mentioned. This is a must restaurant if you are in A Guarda or nearby, both for the food and the service.The 4 of us in our group had one of the best afternoons of our trip in Casa Olga, despite the fact that it was storming outside.
The seafood is outstanding. We had lobsters and bogavante and two orders of merluza which was to die for. The fish was flaky, well seasoned and perfectly cooked. We also tried the percebes and were very well surprised. And the service, ah, the service...impeccable. Those people made us feel at home and treated us like family. Martina and the cook deserve kudos. We did not get to meet Olga but here that she is charming. We hope to get to meet her sometime. We did feel at home and spent a few hours drinking and eating like kings. It seems to be a bit pricey but everything else was sooo good and pleasing that you forget about it. It is well worth it.
We recommend this place for either lunch or dinner, hands down.

Reviewed By Stuart T - Chichester, United Kingdom
I have eaten here four times in the past month. The food has always been good and very traditional Portuguese and in large portions. The restaurant is very crowded, especially at weekends, and this results in somewhat slow service. Views across the Minho estuary are splendid and there is ample free parking right outside.
