Right in the heart of the walled city, this cosy spot is tucked away in a two-storey building: a lively bar downstairs and an intimate dining room upstairs. The décor is warm and unfussy, letting the food take centre stage. Market-fresh cuisine, fresh ingredients and a varied menu designed for sharing with a bit of everything, from croquettes, toasts and skillet dishes to fish, meats and the odd seafood option. To finish, a simple but spot-on cheesecake. Everything with good value for money. I

About

Right in the heart of the walled city, this cosy spot is tucked away in a two-storey building: a lively bar downstairs and an intimate dining room upstairs. The décor is warm and unfussy, letting the food take centre stage. Market-fresh cuisine, fresh ingredients and a varied menu designed for sharing with a bit of everything, from croquettes, toasts and skillet dishes to fish, meats and the odd seafood option.

To finish, a simple but spot-on cheesecake. Everything with good value for money. If you're looking for somewhere to eat that avoids the typical dishes, this is a flavourful option.

Contemporary Galician bistro in Lugo’s historic center, with a pleasant, cozy dining room and terrace; dishes are creatively presented but the overall feel remains relaxed and informal rather than fine dining.
