Mingle with cheerful fishermen in the pleasant village of O Grove. Wide, soft sand beaches meet exquisite and clean waters on this Spanish peninsula, which are as celebrated for their fruitful fish bounty as they are their beauty. Unsurprisingly, O Grove holds an epic annual seafood festival in October, where you can savor sinfully fresh shellfish while you pay homage to the gods of the sea.

We went to Asador D'berto for a dinner we had :
Almeja Marinera - it was cooked perfectly , the sauce was also really interesting with onion flavor
Oysters - good quality
PErcebes - amazing
CIgalas big ones - two Cigalas were 350 grams . For me the best dish of the night
Lobster - that was a big surprise , probably the best lobster I ever had in my life. Cooked perfectly, super delicate sauce with a little pinch of garlic
Desert- well it's Spain , so you can't expect too much :)
It was so good that we booked for next day for lunch .
Lunch - They didn't have half of the menu and even the amazing lobster wasn't amazing ... It was overcooked , sauce out of balance , powdered garlic dominated it.

What sets this restaurant apart from so many other seafood restaurants is that it not only knows how to prepare high quality seafood but also has mastered ambiance, service and presentation. So far the best restaurant experience we have had in Galicia. We didn't have the special rice dishes made with seafood, lobster, etc which several other guests had and that we're a feast (in a real sense) for the eyes. Instead we had multiple small courses served individually to try the variety of fresh seafood on the menu. Mussels, croquetas de bogavante, grilled razor clams, pulpo came one after another. Too much food but we ate it all plus a shared fish fish expertly plated. And we made the right decision to share a dessert. A rolled crepe filled with a coffee and rum mousse with carmel, shaved almonds and a finely shaped oval of helado. If any doubt about the freshness of the crustaceans, they are in a tank and your selection may be brought to the table to view before cooking. An the most amazing part was the bill. A great value for a priceless meal!

We went here really hungry after a busy day and it didn't disappoint. Big portions at good prices, and excellent quality. We ordered a paella for 2 people and it was huge . full of prawns, clams, squid. We were really full, we couldn't even finish it all. It was a great experience, definitely recommend.

We were hungry, but did not want to eat seafood (we had already eaten a lot...) and locals told us about the Chiringuito. We got there and were agreeably surprised by the many options available, and by the affordable prices. It had many guests eating there, also very nice - they even offerred for me to taste the "vaca vieja" churrasco they had ordered - a huge portion of barbecued beef. Service was excellent, and we plan to return.

Definitely one of the best meals (actually two since we went back again the same week) I have ever had in Galicia. The restaurant is very nice, right near the port. Service is excellent, very good wine list and the food is out of this world. Fresh, tasty, abundant, etc. Worth reccommending - in fact my son and daughter-in-law are there on vacation and we gave them the card from the restaurant so they wouldn't miss it.

We had lunch yesterday at Lavandeiro. Everything was delicious. As starters we had one salad , one octopus, one empanada. Afterwards we shared one mariscada with centollo which was delicious . We were still hungry so we shared solomillo (also awesome).
To finish , as dessert we enjoyed white chocolate pudding, cannoli and cheesecake . Service was extremely friendly and efficient making the whole experience unforgettable!

A colleague recommended this place, and we were not disappointed. The tasting menu offered a seemingly never ending array of small beautifully presented and very tasteful dishes. We loved how the kitchen each time managed to bring out the crispness and freshness of the ingredients. Service was in the beginning a bit stroppy, but got friendly as we progressed in our dinner. Interesting was that we were given a timeframe for our lunch (2hrs15mins for the tasting menu) which was kept, even though we didn't ask for it. The setting is somewhat formal, but the views are great. A pleasant surprise was the final bill, where "extras" such as the bottled water and glasses of wine were charged at very decent prices. We had the pleasure to meet the chef after dinner, who explained us the philosophy of his cooking and especially also the sourcing of the ingredients, from local small producers that apply the rules of biodynamic farming. We'd love to come back!

We had a really nice dinner here. We we're a bit early for Spannish terms, but this was not a problem at all. The starter we chose was the Iberico which was nicely prestented togehter with bread and a sun dried tomato salsa. Delicious! Classic and good.
As mains we orderd some seafood-hamburgers. One with octopus and one with makrell. Both were served on a shared platterd with jacked potatoes and peppers. Never knew you could dress up a burger so nicely.
Also the dessert, some kind of warm confit fruit and icecream was delicious. If we are back in O Grove we would definitly visit this restaurant again.
Also the service was really good. We don't speak Spannish and they helped us out really well in English.

Came in late near 11pm and they let us in. Ate some delicious octopus and fresh squids followed by slow cooked pork cheeks so tender that they melted in our mouth. Delicious and well priced restaurant. Would love to go again.

We had 2 lovely meals at Meson do Mar. The second meal the waitress was helpful and spoke a bit of English so made ordering easy. If you go try the salad with prawns and scallops
