€€Seafood
Located inside the boutique hotel of the same name, this is one of those family-run restaurants where it feels like time does not pass. And it’s no wonder, it’s one of those places where the sea is brought right to your table! It offers a fairly extensive à la carte, with various specialities from the Asturian recipe book and, above all, the best local fish and seafood local seafood (baby squid, hake, monkfish, virrey...). Fun fact: They have their own boat, called ‘La Felisina’, which goes out to fish daily from the port of Cudillero so that diners can enjoy the freshest products.

€€Regional Cuisine
This attractive family-run restaurant, featuring a pleasantly surprising rustic-style dining room overlooking a charming landscaped terrace, is run in a friendly spirit and with great professionalism by chef Jairo López (who is in charge of both the kitchen and dining room). His traditional Asturian cooking, including dishes such as broad beans with cod cheek, spider crab cake, and the loin of sea bream with cider, always champions ingredients sourced from the local area. Although many of the dishes here are for two people, it is also possible to order individual portions.

Cabo Vidio, located in Oviñana, specializes in regional cuisine. Food quality is generally praised, with standout dishes including squid croquettes, garlic clams, and stews, noted for fresh ingredients and skillful preparation. However, service experiences vary significantly. While Chef/Owner Jairo is frequently commended for his warmth and dedication, multiple reviews cite slow pacing, understaffing, and excessive wait times, with some reporting rude interactions. The atmosphere is described as quiet, comfortable, and charming. Value perceptions are mixed; some find the quality justifies the cost, while others felt disappointed by the price-to-quality ratio during specific visits. Overall, the restaurant offers authentic local flavors but requires patience regarding service efficiency.
Suitable for diners prioritizing authentic ingredients and ambiance who can tolerate slower service pacing.
