“ Very delicious dinner and very professional staff!! ”
“ Fuimos a comer allí y estaba todo muy rico. Lamentablemente cuando llegamos nos dijeron que no quedaban varios de los entrantes de la carta. Aún así, volveremos para probarlos. Servicio muy bueno ( el camarero muy amable) y el arroz que pedimos estaba muy rico y era una ración abundante. Buena experiencia, repetiremos. ”
“ La comida está muy buena. La mejor Gyoza que he probado en mi vida ha sido la de chipirones. Pero en general tanto los entrantes como los arroces están muy buenos. Con un entrante y un arroz dos personas comen de sobra, pero todo tiene tan buena pinta que es difícil resistirse. Recomendable para ir y para repetir. ”
“ Fuimos dos adultos y dos niños. Pedimos: paté de centolla, quesos rebozados, tacos y el arroz de pulpo y langostinos, además de tres postres. Todo muy buenos raciones abundantes. El servicio muy bien, personal amable. Repetiremos. ”
“ El título lo indica tienen platos de arroz y risottos muy ricos. Pero nosotros hemos optado por quesos empanados, tacos de codillo y revuelto de pulpo... Exquisito todo. Y luego de postre una crema de queso de tetilla con membrillo... Espectacular! Totalmente recomendable aunque un poco escondido. Pero no lo dejéis pasar!! ”
“ Nos apetecía cambiar un poco y salir de lo clásico. Este sitio fue una opción genial. El paté y las gyozas como entrante estuvieron de vicio. Tenían un sabor muy conseguido y sabroso, nos quedamos con ganas de más. Y por último, el risotto de pulpo una delicia; tenía muy buen sabor y el arroz en su punto. Nos sentimos muy cómodos y nos atendieron genial. Nos encantaría volver a repetir. ”
“ We had the risotto de pulpo y gambas and it was really good. The gentleman serving us was really nice and kudos to the person who cooked our dish. ”
“ Hidden gem in Pontevedra, easy to miss but definitely worth a visit. Risotto was cooked perfectly and the crab pate was amazing. Excellent value for money ”
