Review summary

Auga, located in Lugo's historic center, occupies a renovated multi-story old house offering a unique, nostalgic atmosphere. The menu features handmade pizzas, crepes, and traditional Galician dishes like octopus and monkfish cake, which are generally praised for their taste and generous portions. Service is mostly friendly and efficient, though some guests reported slow responses or indifferent attitudes. While the ambiance is highly regarded, value for money receives mixed reviews, with some finding prices excessive relative to portion sizes. It is a solid choice for those seeking authentic local cuisine in a distinctive setting, but checking table availability beforehand is advisable.
