They had quite a few options for people who can't eat gluten as well, like yogurt with muesli and gluten free bread with multiple spread options. I ordered the yogurt, gluten free bread with hummus and olive spread, café con leche, and a fresh squeezed juice with pineapple, strawberry, apple, lemon, and celery. Everything was delicious and the staff was very nice and understanding of my restrictions!

Sésamo is such a solid spot in the neighborhood. I am American and find most of the restaurants in…read morethe area to be pretty bland and also pretty much never open when you want to eat. Sésamo is open all day and offers different cuisines, and does a surprisingly good job. Indian, Mexican, Mediterranean, etc. Also they have great salads and vegetables which is rare or nonexistent in vigo. They also have amazing juices / smoothies similar to health food spots back home. If you're looking for somewhere healthy (ie not pulpo or jamón and potatoes) and OPEN when you want it to be, this is the spot :) thanks y'all

Cafetería Iris represents everything that I love about the life in Spain [1] and the hospitality of…read morefamily-run businesses and restaurants. In a down economy, no matter where in the world you are, I believe that it is the quality of service that will differentiate the restaurants that succeed from the restaurants that fail. Okay, I will step off of the soapbox now. My waiter was an older man, who was extremely attentive, cheerful, and ensured that my glass was never empty and I left with my stomach full. The other young lady working the bar (possibly his daughter or niece) also checked up on us periodically. With two types of Estrella Galicia on tap, I was elated. The caña is not the cheapest around (due to the restaurant's proximity to Plaza America), but it is under 2 euro. In the typical Galician style, we were presented with small (and free!) slices of tortilla española (this tortilla was incredible) and a bar snack mixture. The bocadillos, however, are excellent and a tremendous value. For 4 euro, I had a jamon, queso manchego, and tomato bocadillo that could have fed me for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for two days. The bread used is typical pan gallego, from the bakery down the street (I saw my waiter stop to purchase some extra loaves quickly.). The slices of tomato cost an additional 20 cents (a little steep), but were extremely fresh and juicy that upon my first bite, I stopped complaining. A bocadillo may seem like a fairly simple, idiot-proof alimentation, but trust me, it is possible to create a horrible bocadillo if one uses ingredients of inferior quality. Here at Cafetería Iris, everything was fresh, flavorful, and served in a warm and inviting environment. For me, Cafetería Iris is a tremendous departure from the NYC Eyeroll, the "Let Me Throw the Cheque at You Before You've Started Eating," and "Where's my 18%?" Although IVA is included, the service I received warranted another euro or two. [1] As busy as you are, no one dares to interfere between the hours of 2 and 4:30. I have been working and studying so much that I have substituted sleep with café solo, but the lunch time hours are a time to recharge and relax.

One of the best things about the cafeteria are the hours, 6AM - 2AM ish. Good service with lots outside seating. Menu is pretty wide and the prices are reasonable. It's also a good place to watch sporting matches as there are several TVs throughout the restaurant.

For under three euro, you can eat enough food to tide you over for breakfast, lunch, and possibly dinner. Although there is an a la carte menu, most patrons seem to order from one of the five combination specials available. The deal is alluring and the kitchen is constantly whipping up tortillas, making the restaurant smell divine. But after a bite of this tortilla, I was disappointed to find the inside fairly liquidy (gross?) and plop! - the entire slice collapsed on the plate. The empanadilla did not fare much better. Both the crust and the filling were very dry. The dryness translated to a lack of flavor for both the meat filling and the pastry shell. The meal was not a complete bust - I enjoyed my coffee and was able to read Faro de Vigo in a relaxing environment.

HOWEVER...the calamari, zorza (marinated pork) and empanadillas are to die for. The best part - the price. You can easily have dinner for 7-8 euros, including a couple beers. Un local super conocido en Vigo por sus empanadillas. Tapas de todo tipo, (la mejor zorza que probe en la vida) canas, etc....precio baratismo...no te lo pierdas!
