This review concludes our Camino de Santiago saga. After our Finisterre/Muxía excursion, our last…read moremeal in Galicia would be at A Noiesa. For our party of seven, we had to split into two groups so we could be seated with minimal wait. Alcachofas Crocantes Con Labras De Xamón Ibérico - Sometimes we had to order a veggie dish and it becomes an easy choice when there's meat involved. Can't go wrong here with the Iberian ham. The crispness of the artichokes was amazing. Fideos Negros De Sepia Da Ría Con Alioli - This was our first time having fideo and we were glad they had the squid ink variety on their menu. I would have preferred it to be a bit drier, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. It had plenty of cuttlefish and green peas and a nice dollop of aioli. Zamburiñas Á Prancha - These were the biggest scallops that we've had all week. They were grilled and torched at the top for an even better char flavor. Solombo De Vaca Premium (200 grams) Con Verduriñas Salteadas E Patacas - A 7-oz. cut of their premium beef tenderloin, grilled medium, and lightly sprinkled with coarse salt. Very soft and tasty that made it a sin having to split the meat four ways. It was served with sautéed vegetables and potatoes. Entrecosto De Vaca Premium (300 grams) Con Verduriñas Salteadas E Patacas - A bigger cut of their premium beef sirloin and came with sautéed vegetables and potatoes also. It came out precut into bite-sized slices so it was easier to share. It was perfectly grilled too, but the texture of the solombo got my vote. Food this good was the fitting end to our once-in-a-lifetime accomplishment. The mom-owner was very kind and accommodating which made our final Galician meal even better. Our group of seven had to part ways early the next day so we said our goodbyes after dinner. It was Lisbon and Porto for the others while my wife and I were headed to the Andalusian region.

The ambiance is spot on located in a historic building with glass sections in the flood covering shafts exposing old walls and structures underneath. The tapas are galician, well prepared and are primarily mariscos but do have a couple of meat dishes as well.

I mention that we ordered the croquettes, but he protests and shows me where he wrote empanada, which was proof it was my fault, right? Hardly. But the empanada looked really good I told him that this was fine. Towards the end the meal he then brings us croquettes. I appreciated his effort to make things right, but I did not ask for them and we did not eat them, which garnered a look of disappointment when he took away the plates. Worst part was that he charges us for the croquettes, which I had to call the manager over to have removed. 4 stars for the food, which was really good, minus 1 for the service.

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.

Great service, awesome atmosphere, and delicious food. We love Spain, and the cuisine is one of the top 3 reasons. One of our servers (owner?) gave us Iberian ham slices, olives, and excellent bread before dinner. The beer and wine hit the spot after our long journey. Scallops for my wife and pork and fries for me. Wonderful! If you walk the Camino and are looking for a delicious restaurant to celebrate, give L 'Incontro a try. You'll love it!
