The waiter offered to help us and brought out dishes he told us about. The only thing that caught my attention was that there was an item on the bill that we didn't receive. This could have been an accident or intentional, but in either case, there was a breakdown in communication. There was another item that was discussed that we did not receive, but luckily, that was not on the bill. It's a great place to eat and drink, but as with all restaurants in tourist areas, check the final bill.

Noisy, informal, and oh so good. Tons of local cheeses and wines to try, perfect pimientos de Padrón, fame-worthy Gailcian bread, elaborate salads - I always have to get the grilled goat cheese and veggie abundant salad! My carnivore partner loves all the traditional meat and seafood preparations and the homey vibe as well.

We made it - 113km on foot from Sarria to Santiago de Compostela in 5 days! Our last leg was…read moremarred by rain from the start which got heavier by the hour. We were in raincoats and Gortex shoes, but they could only do so much. We all broke down in tears when we made the turn from Arco de Palacio to Plaza del Obradoiro because there it was, the archcathedral, standing gallantly on our left. We hugged each other, said a prayer, took some photos, got our compostela (certificate), and then looked for a place to eat. From the plaza, we headed down Rúa do Franco and landed at A Taberna do Bispo. There was a long wait to seat our party of seven together, so we ended up on two tables. Champiñones A La Plancha - These griddled button mushrooms were the perfect way to get our veggies in. Boquerones En Vinagre - These were the herbiest anchovies we had during our camino. They were served with green and purple olives. Calamarcitos A La Plancha - Just like the mushrooms and anchovies, these grilled baby squids were served in olive oil with herbs. They were very tender and tasty. Mejillones - We finally got steamed mussels done properly. So much better than the ones we had at Sarria. Solomillo De Terneira Montaditos - These veal tenderloins were awesome. Perfectly seared medium-rare, each was served on bread and topped with shishito pepper. Vieira A La Plancha Con Langostinos - Lovely to look at, heaven to eat - that's how to best describe this dish! Each half-shell scallop had two plump prawns and they were grilled and drizzled with the same olive oil concoction they used in the other dishes. So delicious! The restaurant was elegant-looking and had the vibe of a tourist trap, but we did not regret going here. There were other items on the menu that we could have tried, but we simply would not have been able to finish if we did. Our server was very friendly and had plenty of recommendations, one of which was the scallop. We were so glad we ordered them!

We ordered cold bottled beers, which were refreshing after the long day, ham, and of course, we had to try the octopus. It was tender and flavorful--definitely a highlight of the meal! The ambiance was lively, and the service was prompt, though it got a bit crowded as the afternoon went on. Overall, a great place to experience local flavors in a bustling atmosphere. I'd gladly return!

It was packed full of students probably because of the free tapa of tortilla Española (Spanish potato omelette) that you get with every drink - €1 for a caña - about 250-300 ml of beer. We've eaten a lot of tortilla and the tortilla here is probably the best we ever eaten - it just melts in your mouth!! No one (except us) was eating anything else in this bar - we also had a salad and some croquetas which were nice but unremarkable, and some very good house made desserts.

Whoa. Best food we've found in Santiago!…read more WiFi is available inside. They have about 6 tables outside and seating for maybe 20 inside. We had the homemade croquettes - they have Galician octopus in them! And two of the mini cheese caramelized burgers. SO good! We plan on coming back for the ribs for dinner! Went back for dinner... did not disappoint!! Nachos with carne was a delicious starter. We split for a table of 6. Chicken fajitas were good. It is more like one giant soft taco filled with veggies and chicken. Green peppers were amazing And the mini burgers are still good!

Based on the menu description, we expected some creamy white rice and chunks of lobster. But, NO! We got a small paella pan of marvelous red rice very similar to a paella, but stickier and with more tomato flavor. Each of us also got (embedded in the rice) half a lobster. OMG! A dinner to die for. This would have been a 5-star rating save for the incredibly loud atmosphere and the signature dessert of chocolate covered chestnuts which were delicious, but mealy. Still, I highly recommend Enxebre, especially if you are staying at the parador.
