Casa Marcelo

Casa Marcelo, a stone’s throw from the imposing Cathedral, is the reward for many pilgrims after completing the legendary Camino de Santiago. Some say that it is almost a religious experience!The cosmopolitan restaurant, where the attentive cooks interact with the patrons, has a large central table that encourages the space to be shared (a nod to the Galician people’s friendly spirit), a side bar, the kitchen integrated into the dining room and, at the back, a pleasant terrace, where there is also a bright and colourful room with glass walls.

In this restaurant, fronting one of the city’s emblematic cobbled streets leading to its famous Praza das Praterías and cathedral, they are proud to say that Simpar’s daily menus are always built around ingredients sourced the same day from trusted suppliers, whose names they are also happy to share with guests.

A Tafona

Contemporary · ★ Michelin

€€€€

There are personal goals that develop with learning, travel, effort... that personal evolution that can only be achieved by reaching your targets. This is the perspective from which we must take Lucía Freitas, a chef who is aware of food intolerances, tireless in her quest for a healthier cuisine and who, whenever possible, uses vegetables from her own garden. This charming restaurant with a contemporary atmosphere, where the stone walls and the wonderful skylight of the main dining room blend with a cosy private room, is the ideal setting to enjoy a modern, regionally based proposal, which is

A Horta d'Obradoiro

Regional Cuisine · Bib

€€

This impressively unique restaurant serves interesting cuisine while at the same time showcasing a part of Santiago’s rich history. Run by two chefs, it occupies a house dating back to 1690 which was once home to musicians from the nearby cathedral. It features a combination of contemporary and regional decor, a wine bar made from old beams, colourful details that are reminiscent of old beach huts, a conservatory-style room, plus a garden with a vegetable plot which is a real luxury in this part of the city. Carefully prepared and beautifully presented seasonal cuisine.

Con Culler

Farm to table, Contemporary · Bib

€€

Under this name, which we could translate as "with a spoon", we find a restaurant with a young atmosphere and minimalist aesthetics where the most striking feature is the open kitchen, right at the entrance and with a huge elongated table. The couple at the helm, with Estefanía Colmeiro in the kitchen and Uxío Fernández as maitre d', offers a fresh and modern cuisine based on Galician recipes and seasonal local products, to prepare dishes full of delicacy and flavour. Within its small menu, complemented by two set menus, there is a dish that has caught our attention for its different textures

Facilities here include a pleasant bar by the entrance, classically furnished dining rooms, plus an attractive private space, in which you can choose from a traditional à la carte that focuses on different meats, in particular veal and Galician beef. You can also enjoy “churra” lamb (a Spanish breed) and grilled fish which varies according to market availability. The reasonably extensive wine list features

Situated next to the busy Mercado de Abastos, this restaurant is highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable gastronomic experience. The ambience is modern, casual and informal, with a kitchen partially visible from the dining room and, in a demonstration of complete transparency, precise information on the provenance of ingredients and even the distance from suppliers. The modern cooking here is centred on a daily à la carte, that varies in line with market availability, and two menus (Do Mercado and Da Casa), with a focus on Galician culinary traditions and top-quality local fish a

Its strapline, “the flavour of the market”, says it all! This friendly restaurant in the Pazo de Altamira hotel (with its own entrance and independent management) comes as a pleasant surprise with its decor of light bulbs hanging from the ceiling, unusual bottle racks and colourful tableware by Sargadelos, all of which create a rustic yet vintage feel. At its large tables designed for sharing, discover pleasantly updated traditional cooking with plenty of personality and a philosophy that showcases the flavours of Galician cuisine (we particularly enjoyed the lightly roasted mackerel with “ajo
