“ We had mussels, fried skids, galician stile octopus and beef churrasco. Good quality food for the price. Very friendly service. ”
“ Restaurante fantástico en Burela. El pulpo está simplemente espectacular, tierno y perfectamente cocinado, y el raxo es de los mejores que he probado, lleno de sabor y muy bien presentado. El personal es atento y amable, y el ambiente acogedor. Sin duda un lugar que recomiendo para disfrutar de la auténtica gastronomía gallega. ”
“ Pedimos unos chipirones a la plancha que estaban estupendos tanto de sabor como de textura, una croquetas que estaban crujientes por fuera y tiernas por dentro, y sobre todo, una ración de pulpo que estaba muy tierna. Cometieron un error en la comanda ya que nos lo trajeron con pimentón picante (les especificamos que no porque íbamos con niños) y lo resolvieron en seguida. Las natillas de postre un poco líquidas para mi gusto, pero muy buen sabor. El trato por parte de los camareros, muy amable en todo momento. Los precios, muy ajustados para la cantidad y sobre todo la calidad de lo servido. ”
“ La experiencia en el restaurante fue muy grata, todo se desarrolló con rapidez. La comida, sin duda, fue deliciosa, superando nuestras expectativas. El ambiente del lugar creó un entorno muy agradable para disfrutar. En general, la atención y la calidad de la comida hicieron de la visita una experiencia memorable. ”
“ Such a lovely place with only locals who could not be more welcoming to us! Even though we spoke only a little Spanish (and no Galicien Spanish) we understand each other and had nice conversations about our trip through North Spain :) The typical galician food was great and we had such a lovely last evening in Burela! Try pulpo á feira and enjoy your evening here!!! ”
