Stopped here for lunch on the way west. Even though we arrived late it was still full and we had to…read morewait about 20min for a table. But a wait well worth it. There are a good number of tables inside and outside. Also many customers standing with their drinks and chatting. Everybody seems to have a good time. So did we. And our Bulldog was welcome as well. Atmosphere is very nice, staff friendly, the wine is flowing and the food is excellent. Ordered some white wine, almejas (clams), raxo (pork) and paté de merluza (pike). Everything was cooked to order and was freshly prepared. The clams very nice and fresh, the paté very smooth with a nice, but not overpowering fish flavour. And the pork was nicely marinated with lots of good spices. High quality pork. There were more very interesting items on the menu. But maybe next time, these three dishes were enough food for two for a quick lunch. But all very good items. Surely a place we'll be back to one day.

Wanted to like this place but can not recommend…read more We tried two variants of the set menu (reasonably priced at 10.30 Euros) that included a starter, a second course and a dessert. I had the shrimp and beans in a garlic sauce - very nice- and wife had the guacamole with sardines(also very nice). For the main I had the squid - generous portion not over cooked but tasted off (a bit like charcoal, bu that isn't quite it) and wife had the "secret pork". Stay away unless you like back fat! The desserts were carrot cake (more like carrot bread) with cream and mini Oreos (tasty) and I had strawberry mousse (also very good). While the staff spoke little English and I speak little Spanish, we made it work via google translate. We didn't understand that we could have ordered tapas instead of the set menu - seemed others enjoyed their tapas - so that would be the way to go, if you go.

Phenomenal wine and delicious tostas from some of the best meat and cheese Galicia has to offer on hearty fresh baked bread. Leave a note on the wall, or just enjoy one of the most authentic experiences Santiago de Compostela has to offer. The fireplace at the back of the restaurant makes the restaurant feel like an escape from the bustle of the city, and the crowd is always energetic and eclectic. You can't visit Santiago, "la ciudad mas guarrilla" without a visit to O Filandón.
