It's name comes…read morefrom a blend between basque (pintxo, meaning tapa ) and Galician (viño meaning wine) This place is a combination of tapas and frat local and international wines. I normally go there to have a drink before lunch, and enjoy one of they tapas. I highly recommend the tostas of their revueltos, but do not hesitate to ask as they will always give you advice. If you are not very hungry, don't you worry as you will get some free food with your drink. They have a small sitting area outside overlooking the square that tend to be packed when the sun if out. Prices are not very high making this place great value for money!

Got the tosta de pulpo (octopus toast) and the solomillo al Roquefort. Both were good. I ordered…read morethe house Rioja crianza red wine and a red from Ribera del Duero. Not impressed with either, and served at too warm a temperature, they were a bit warmer than room temperature but still alright. In general good ambience and located una really adorable plaza in Pontevedra.

This cafe/tapas bar has a great decor and a great ambiance making it a breath of fresh air. Their wine list is elaborate and away from conventional more main stream wineries. I had the mussels and the carpaccio and finished with a superb sweet/salty chocolate soufflé. I have a feeling that this will turn to be my new favourite spot when in town.

It's located in the main eating-out area of Coruña so there is always the hustle and bustle of good atmosphere. It is very cheap, all tapas are 1€. I especially recommend the croqueta de jamon (ham croquette) which is massive and filled with visible chunks of ham (unlike most croquettes). Come here before lunch as an aperitivo or at night for a few tapas. Be warned though, it is always busy and you will most likely have to eat standing which is why I prefer to come here for a few and then move on to the next place.

Melt-in-your-mouth Octopus…read more This place is so good we went back the next time we were in A Coruña. It's also easy to get to - just a couple of short blocks from the main square (the one with the Obelisk). I have never had Octopus so tender and flavorful. The generous portion comes with potatoes, crusty bread and a starter for 20 Euros. Also enjoyed a couple of glasses of Estrella beer - so refreshing. Also recommend the Scallops and the Prawns. The staff is welcoming and attentive. If you have never tried Octopus, get out of you safety zone and give it a go - I'm betting you will be glad you did.

After spending four hours touring A Coruña and soaking in all its historical charm, we found…read moreourselves absolutely starving at 12:00 PM. The tour had mentioned that octopus is one of the most beloved dishes in A Coruña, so I knew I had to try it. But where? I turned to Yelp and searched for the best octopus nearby. My answer appeared almost immediately, A Taberna de Cunqueiro, just a five-minute walk through the enchanting old town, boasting nearly a 5-star rating with 37 reviews. When we arrived, the place was packed, buzzing with locals and tourists alike. Just as I was scanning the room, probably looking a bit lost, a friendly waitress caught my eye. With a big smile and a cheerful "hola," she seated us right away. She went above and beyond, recommending the best tapas selections to start, and before we even had a chance to order, she brought over a warm bowl of potaje and jamón ham con pan--such a thoughtful touch! We ordered two refreshing local draft beers, Estrella de Galicia, and dug into the delicious appetizers. The casa croquettes, Iberian ham, small scallops, and of course, the Galician octopus, were all simply amazing. Each bite was a true taste of Galicia's culinary brilliance. After a second round of beers, we were so stuffed that we had to call it a day just as they were preparing to close at 2:00 PM for their lunch break. This spot has an amazing vibe and you can tell it's one of the locals favorite as it reas full of young people adding to the energy. This place quickly became one of my favorite while in A Coruña and merits multiple visits. Did I also mention that owner was in the kitchen making sure this packed place functioned like a well oiled machine. The vibe is so authentic, the staff are incredibly friendly, and the food? Unforgettable. I couldn't even imagine giving anything short of 5 star review definitely be back next time I'm in town!

The food here is top notch, and the service is friendly. It didn't feel that touristy, but since…read moreit's in a major tourist city and is listed as a Bib Gourmand, I assume they get a lot of non-Spanish speakers. The waiter offered to help us and brought out dishes he told us about. The only thing that caught my attention was that there was an item on the bill that we didn't receive. This could have been an accident or intentional, but in either case, there was a breakdown in communication. There was another item that was discussed that we did not receive, but luckily, that was not on the bill. It's a great place to eat and drink, but as with all restaurants in tourist areas, check the final bill.
