As nothing was open between Sarria and here, it was a welcome stop. The sandwich was simple but so delicious. Very much enjoyed sitting here in the sun.

Right on the Camino, and the only place open for a hot meal that I spotted between Sarria and Portomarin in late December. The food didn't even need to be good after that walk for me to devour it but the meal was delicious! Cozy atmosphere, too.

The sign outside read “Our tortillas are made with love” and it really shows! This place is a charming little restaurant which offers hearty home cooked meals. We had a couple slices of Tortillas which came with a hunk of bread in classic Spanish fashion, and it was undoubtedly the best tortilla we’ve had in Spain!

Wow!! Do not miss this restaurant. This place has gourmet spanish food. I had the Zamburiñas con queso san Simon al horno and champiñones al ajillo. The flavors were on point! It was so good I wished I had room for more food. I would order the whole menu!
