The service is kind of good enough. It is fast and effective, but not friendly, at moments could be close to rede. This is to say that you would neither come here for the design, nor for the non-super-welcoming service. You would come for the food. And the food is good, refined and to a great extend creative. The pulpo hotdogs maybe the most creative, though not the most refined. The cabra probably the best for me. Worth given a try.

I have been a couple of times at 'Taverna a Curuxa' in Vigo. The first thing to comment it is that…read morethe restaurant is located in the centre in the old part of the town. The restaurant is decorated in a traditional Galician style and serves typical Galician food too. The menu offers really good options like the empanada de zamburinas (small scallops pastrie) that is very good. The mains are good too and very tasty. They have a good selection of wines and of course they serve 'Estrella Galicia' a typical beer that is really good. The prices are a bit expensive but the quality of the food is good so it worth the money.

The moment you arrive, you know it's special. It's an intimate and romantic setting you'll soon forget. We enjoyed a late lunch with a staff that fussed over us. We did not want to keep them so we opted for a la Carte vs. the delightful tasting menu. It was a great decision given what followed. Our meal began with the in-house bread. It was perfect. Total perfection. Note, no butter. Not needed, either. I enjoyed a perfect Albariño wine. Our waitstaff recommended it. All three glasses. Ssssh. And DH enjoyed the Nordes gin. I opted for the beef sirloin with peanut butter swirl and DH went for the hake fish. But first? PB&J foie. Yup, infused and the best thing since sliced bread. We ended lunch with the Santiago cake. It was brilliant - deconstructed and perfect in all ways with almond ice cream. Then came the surprise chocolates. All 8 of them! What a strong finish! The $100 Euros was easy to lay down for one of best meals in Spain. See website for more details.

I have mix feeling about this place. It used to be one of…read morethe most innovative restaurants in town, but in a place were great value for money is abundant, somehow they managed to make themselves a loyal clientele by offering traditional cuisine but adding a modern twist. Today my impression was that the modern twist is still there, flavours were really good, so it was the presentation and the service but there was something missing. Portions were very small. When you having the tasting menu, obviously the amounts are less but we all felt we could have done with a bit more food. Normally you do not go to this type of establishments to stuff yourself like in a all you can eat buffet but leaving with hungry shouldn't also be the case. All in all if you are after a treat,or something more elaborate and fancy this is the place in Pontevedra.

We were…read morewalking down the street and saw this restaurant which we thought looked good and decided to sit down after viewing the star ratings... well, disappointed!!! Actually very disappointed.... I missed a good meal in Galicia! Unacceptable. This place has absolutely no quality in food, not tasty and for me, I even left most of the dishes intact! The shrimp with squid garlic style is one of the simplest plates of the Spanish cuisine... how could they possibly get this wrong??? Instead of olive oil, they used butter in the casserole... simply disgusting. The piquillo peppers were ok, simply ok... I also had the grilled baby squid and these were as lame as they could be... no flavor and very bad seasoned! My wife had the beed which was also well... do not want to remember this place... then to top it off, the traditional crepes were, well, the worst ... avoid this place period!!

The local gets lively in the evening with business people and area residents and shoppers.

Outdoor seating is limited with a small bar and a few wine barrel tables with tall stools. I would recommend as a good starting place for the long walking street full of shops and street activities.
