We were welcomed by Alberto who introduced us to the tasting menu we were going to have. He offered to make changes if there was something in the menu we were not interested. His team of waiters are very attentive and explained each dish when bringing it to the table. The somelier came to offer us wine to pair it with the food.
Overall great experience and all dishes were very tasty, well cooked and flavoursome.
Definitely a place to come back.

Great place to enjoy a revamped traditional cuisine full of flavor. This place is exactly like this, traditional dishes with a modern touch, and enhanced flavors.
For instance, we had ravioli, rib, braised ox tail and scallops. Pros: the mix of flavors is strong, they evolve in mouth and the feeling is super positive.
Cons: sometimes some really good products are masked in their original textures and flavors.
Anyway, a good value for money option in A Coruña
