Árbore da Veira

Creative · ★ Michelin

€€€

Located closed to the emblematic artillery batteries that once protected the estuary, this restaurant on top of Monte de San Pedro will delight guests with its panoramic setting, with tables in the dining room offering views of both the city and the expanse of the ocean. It boasts several rooms for private events, lots of light, large bare tables, innovative tableware, and surprising culinary combinations, including impeccable cream sauces. In his own words, the cuisine of chef Luis Veira, a proud native of the city, “focuses the five senses firmly on the Atlantic”. This is reflected in a cons

Terreo Cocina Casual

Contemporary · Bib

€€

A restaurant with a modern feel that everyone is talking about given its aim of creating elaborate yet more informal cuisine based around lighter dishes that still retain incredible flavour. The couple that run it (chef Quique Vázquez mans the stoves while Ana Señarís takes care of everything front of house) like to describe what they offer as “casual” to make their guests feel very much at home, with a focus on delicate sauces, an interesting fusion of raw ingredients (marinated and smoked), plus an extensive array of rice dishes. Half-“raciones” are also an option on the menu here.

El de Alberto

Modern Cuisine · Bib

€€

This successful, family-run business has had a new lease a life under the baton of chef Aitor Prieto, part of the third generation at the helm of this culinary institution and trained in renowned restaurants such as Culler de Pau (in O Grove). This welcoming eatery, located close to the Playa del Orzán, is hidden behind a large picture window that bathes the contemporary dining room in natural light, and where guests can enjoy attentive and informal service, with owner Alberto Prieto keeping a watchful eye on proceedings. The cooking here is an updated take on traditional cuisine with hints of

Taberna 5 Mares

Contemporary, Galician · Bib

€€

The cooking at this taberna is fun as well as delicious! And with this in mind, the duo of owner-chefs Iria Espinosa and Luis Veira have strived for what they describe as the offbeat face of gourmet cuisine. This bright space occupying the former café adjoining the Arbore da Veira restaurant reflects the more informal and casual dining option of this award-winning name, which features an à la carte of appetisers and main dishes suitable for all budgets (it also includes a section entitled “landscapes for sharing”), in addition to an affordable tasting menu that showcases several signature dish

Divino Steak House

Meats and Grills

€€€

This restaurant, located in the old O Burgo train station, is run by two Argentine brothers with Galician roots. They work with selected local meats, displayed like authentic treasures in their ageing chambers. Here, the menu revolves around gorgeous ribeye steaks cooked over charcoal, with a small selection of starters (including seafood, steak tartare, cecina croquettes, etc.) and three types of prime cuts (veal, cow and selected beef), with different maturations. There is also some fish (only available on request)!

Modern Cuisine

€€€

Well-prepared dishes, high-quality products and delicate presentation lie at the very heart of this restaurant. Not far from the fish market, this establishment surprises in both substance and form, offering contemporary local cuisine in a designer setting. The menu, with the option of half portions for all dishes, is complemented by two set menus: 'Gastronómico' and 'Degustación' (both with wine pairing options). What to order? We were particularly impressed by the successful combination of flavours in the grilled lamb loin and braised neck, 'Queso do Cebreiro', avocado and pea guacamole.

A Espiga

Located in the heart of A Coruña’s old town, very close to the Plaza de María Pita and Los Cantones which showcase the city’s historical heritage, this restaurant (which translates as ‘ear of wheat’ in Galician, a play on the name of chef Koke Trigo (’trigo’ is the Spanish word for ‘wheat’) provides the backdrop for cuisine that highlights his full personality. In the intimate interior, featuring stone walls and a kitchen that opens out on to the dining room, the focus is on market-inspired cooking that is continually reinvented in line with fresh ingredients available daily, a fact reinforced

NaDo

€€

Located along a narrow street in the city’s old quarter, yet just a few steps from the boats moored at the Real Club Náutico de A Coruña, NaDo boasts a thoroughly modern look, with an open-view kitchen and just two long tables that can be adjusted according to the number of guests. Here, chef Iván Domínguez, who is constantly moving between the kitchen and the dining room, creates contemporary cuisine with its roots in Galicia and the Atlantic. This is showcased in particular on the Furancho surprise menu, on which the chefs themselves select the dishes to be served.
