Where to eat: the 12 best restaurants in Isla de la Toja

Very nice food, Paella was just the right taste, not too overpowering. Paddron and soup was as usual good! Super cheap considered tats it's a Michelin restaurant:)

Maybe it’s better during high season. Surprisingly disappointing seafood restaurant, though service was fine. Food is more under salted and lacking in flavor than usual —but those who are elderly, fragile or ill, or watching their salt might like it. Very surprised it had a Michelin recommendation. Pleasant white table cloth atmosphere. Seafood soup was thin and tepid; side vegetables for other dishes seemed almost out of a can.

Very delicious 🤤 recommend!

Table booked for 8 pm, when we got there (on time) they were rude, told us the waiters weren't in yet and when they did arrive they made snarky comments about us being early (even though we were just on time). Food quality did not match the (high) price. Seafood rice was low on seafood and rice badly cooked. Merluza gallega tasted a bit of reused oil (maybe just bad quality olive oil). We waited about 1h for the food. Each bread bun costed 1€, so the long wait was also very expensive. Go there only if nothing else is available! There are others around with much nicer food and certainly friendlier people.

Perfect sea-food! Great service!

Very good quality at fair price.

Loved it! Probably one of the best in the area! And not expensive at all.

I went there because suggested Michelin Guide suggestion but the seafood we ordered was not as expected because cooked with too many sauces. Good fish and seafood should be served to let you taste the fish at its best and not covered by sauces and other ingredients in an overcoming way. Having our little toy poddle we seated outside on the street

Excellent seafood restaurant with a very elegant atmosphere. The service is great and very polite. The dishes are truly delicious. Of course, the final bill is a bit on the expensive side...

The food and service was excellent. Best pulpo we have had in 2 years in Spain. Presentation did not stand up to the food but the flavors and pureness of the food were exceptional.

The food was good, the service was very friendly, and the atmosphere is nice

Delicious fish, octopus and cod. Didn’t pick up on the allergy that was shared ahead of time.

This place is great. Fresh seafood, nicely cooked and presented. Local delicacies you’ll never try anywhere else, for example the black zamburinas. The service is exceptional. The manager, the waiters and all the staff are exceptional hospitality professionals. Make you feel at home and they try to accommodate all request. They are knowledgeable about their product. It’s great to find a place like this Too all this with a well decorated restaurant next to the port and the local Lonxa. Great place to eat in O Grove, but you need to book

Super nice food and service, we had a younger lady serving us that was highly professional

Delicious fresh sea food restaurant with a great service. The parrillada especial feeds 3 people no problem. 4 stars because the wine and the sea bass was overpriced. All the rest was awesome.

If you want to be insulted by management, cursed and shouted at this is the place to go. Avoid and look for another place where you will be treated correctly. I am a local, born and raised , and in all my years I have never seen such a disgraceful and offensive behaviour in a business. I was with some foreign friends showing them the area and As a Galician, I felt bad that a restaurant owner on a public capacity, were he is representing the region had such a despicable behavior towards a potential customer. Management cursed at as and chase us down the street with four empty plates faking that he was going to throw them at us. Should have called the police and place a complaint in the "libro de reclamaciones". Such behavior in unacceptable. Our crime, that we refuse to go into his restaurant. Thank you restaurant owner, I am glad I did not support your business.

Outstanding fish - and I know what I am talking about- but expensive.

Excellent !!

Great seafood!!!

(Translated by Google) A typical seafood restaurant, Mr. Importante serves gluten-free food with great care from the entire staff. I've rarely seen such attention to food allergies. Antonio is a true gentleman, kind and friendly. The food is delicious; for me, the crayfish have been the best in many years, grilled to perfection, juicy, and wonderful. I don't eat crab, but my friends also had the same opinion about the crayfish. The orujo cream flan is a surprise for the palate, delicious! (Original) Típica marisquería de toda la vida, el Sr. Importante tiene comida sin gluten y con mucho cuidado entre todo el personal, pocas veces vi tanta atención a una alergia alimentaria. Antonio, todo un señor, amable y simpático. La comida muy rica, las cigalas para mi han sido las mejores desde hace muchos años, a la plancha en su justo punto, jugosas, maravillosas. No tomo necoras pero mi amigos también opinaron igual que yo con las cigalas. El flan de crema de orujo una sorpresa para el paladar, rico rico!!

(Translated by Google) The perfect place if you want a seafood platter. Fresh produce and excellent value (with one exception I'll mention at the end). The staff is friendly and efficient, and the owner is charming, very attentive and hardworking. The only downside is the price of the bread. It's expensive, and they didn't ask if we wanted it or not; they just put it there. And they charged us eight pieces when there was one slice per person, and there were four of us. But overall, I recommend it. (Original) El sitio perfecto si quieres comer una mariscada. Producto fresco y relación calidad precio (con una excepción que diré al final). El personal amable y eficiente, y el dueño un encanto, muy atento y currante. La única pega es el precio del pan. Es caro y no preguntaron si queríamos o no, lo pusieron y ya. Y nos cobraron 8 unidades cuando habia un trozo por cabeza y éramos cuatro personas. Pero en general, recomendable.

Such a letdown based on reviews, arroz was extremely salty and laughable portion size for 23 euros per person. Zamburinas were bland, small and overpriced for what is served in nearby places. Coulant was definitely from frozen. Wine was good. I feel bad for the kind and attentive staff, they provide a great experience but really need to focus on the food. The view and decor just seems like a gimmick.

the interior has changed and is now in eclectic colourfull mix and match style. sea views although we ate pretty good during our holidays this cook took it to a higher level. the presentation of the food was also very nice. we got a complementary drink and a small pre meal snack/amuse bouche. off road parking next to the restaurant. one of the waitresses speaks fluent english. the are open for breakfast lunch and dinner. closed monday. next time I would reserve a table.

Extremely rude and not worth your money. I ordered an entrecote and it came completely burnt. They made a new one, which came completely undercooked. Believe me when I say that this meat was not edible. It didnt even look like food. Even though we didn't eat it, they made us pay for it.

Cosy and quiet restaurant. Very good food at a fair price. The views are great and the atmosphere is really nice to enjoy the food close to the sea. The desserts we tasted were really good and the service was friendly. I would recommend the rice with seafood here.

A little bit expensive for what we ordered. A tuna salad and a tomato salad,3 glass of wine,2 beers coffee and an ice cream-€27.80. Nice location with outside eating area overlooking the sea. Wouldn't rush back.

Lovely quiet and cosy place directly by the water. Perfect for a drink after a day at the beach

Superb food, great service and a charmingly designed interior and terrace. Loved it!

Michelin does not have enough stars! I have eaten all over the world, but never have I experienced such gourmet delicacies available in Restaurante Taperia Loraña. The food is the freshest I have ever experienced. The staff are beyond courteous and will cater to your every request with the utmost efficiency. The chef is clearly highly skilled in preparing the most incredibly detailed and exquisite dishes. I was so happy I almost vomited after a single bite (due to the overwhelming flavours and freshness, no doubt) I would eat every meal here everyday for the rest of my life if I could. I hope in the future this restaurant will expand and bring its unique flavours to the rest of the world.

Loraña Pulpería Asador is in a convenient spot inside the mall area on La Toja, but the food was underwhelming. The fish of the day was fresh but lacked flavor, and we had to wait a while just to get a tiny portion of salt and olive oil. The mejillones were dry and not well-cleaned—(see photos and video attached) and even had bits of shell in it. The menu felt limited, and honestly the most appealing thing we saw was a cheese pizza a kid was eating at the next table. The mejillones are terrible, and the rest was medium to below average. The atmosphere is nothing special.

This place was a disapointment. Food was a bit mediocre...and Pulpo was overcooked and under seasoned. White wine not served cold enough, and bread charged on the bill but not provided. If the prices were lower I would not have been so disapointed...but there is nothing cheap about here.

(Translated by Google) Although it's a nice, well-maintained, clean place, the prices are ridiculously high, and the food isn't good. A "large" pulpo a feira (octopus a feira) was so small that we even asked if it was a large octopus. The platter was large, but the portion was small. The price for the large was €23 and the small was €19, and they only served us an octopus tail. We honestly didn't order more because, given the portion, it was better to eat the octopus and leave. They also add bread without warning and want to charge you €2 for two rolls. NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL. (Original) Aunque es 1 buen sitio, cuidado, limpio y demás, los precios son carisimos y no se come bien. Un pulpo a feira "grande", con un tamaño de pulpo pequeño que incluso preguntamos si era el grande. La bandeja era de grande pero la ración de pequeño. Precio del grande 23€ y del pequeño 19€, y únicamente nos pusieron una cola de pulpo. La verdad que no pedimos más porque vista esa ración, mejor comer el pulpo y marchar. Ademas te meten el pan sin avisar y te quieren cobrar 2€ por 2 bollos. NADA RECOMENDABLE.

(Translated by Google) The wait time was horrible once we were seated at the table, and the prices were high for the quantity/quality served. The beef steak was a miserable piece of meat with pre-frozen potatoes. The roast ham was passable but had too much sauce and the same pre-frozen fries. The pizza, although large, lacked tomato and was bland, lacking in taste after waiting so long for it that the rest of us had to eat, and it wasn't brought out until the end. Tired of waiting and the poor service, as we had to repeat our order several times, we asked for a coffee and the bill, and again, we had to wait an eternity to have to repeat our coffee order. If you need to go to the bathroom, you either go to the pay one across the street where the market is, or ask for a "key" where you're going to eat and go up to another floor where there's a barrier that gets stuck and doesn't open the first time. The toilet has no lid and an unhygienic toilet, and the doors in the men's room don't even close. I know part of the blame lies with the guests because some people don't know how to behave outside their homes, but part also lies with the community. Every establishment should have its own and maintain it because we know how communities work. P.S. I didn't take photos of the food because I was embarrassed. (Original) El tiempo de espera horrible ya sentados a la mesa, precios altos para la cantidad/calidad que sirven. Churrasco de ternera, un triste trozo de carne con patatas precongeladas, el jamón asado pasable pero exceso de salsa y las mismas patatas fritas precongeladas y la pizza, aunque grande, sin tomate y sin gracia, sinsaboría de todo después de esperar por ella tanto que tuvimos que comer los demás y solo al finalizar la trajeron. Hartos de esperar y del mal servicio ya que tuvimos que repetirles varias veces qué habíamos pedido, pedimos un café y la cuenta y otra vez esperar una eternidad para tener que repetir el pedido del café. Si necesitas ir al baño o vas al de pago del otro lado de la calle donde está el mercadillo o pides "llave" donde vas a comer y subes a otra planta donde hay una barrera que se atasca y no abre a la primera, váter sin tapa y taza nada higiénica y en el de hombres las puertas ni cierran. Sé que parte de la culpa es de los usuarios porque hay gente que no sabe comportarse fuera de casa, pero parte también es de la comunidad. Cada local debería tener el suyo y mantenerlo porque ya sabemos cómo funcionan las comunidades. Pd: no saqué fotos de la comida porque me dio vergüenza ajena

(Translated by Google) The rest of the food hasn't arrived yet, but I feel compelled to write this review since we ordered a plate of mussels, which, for the price, was outrageous! The only good thing that actually offered value for money was the seafood croquettes. The actual mussels came in a whopping five. Disgusting! Also, there were a lot of people. (Original) Todavía no ha llegado la demás comida pero siento la obligación ha escribir esta reseña ya que pedimos un plato de mejillones que para el precio que tenian, un escandalo! Lo único bueno que realmente había calidad-precio fueron las croquetas de maricos. Lo mejillones de verdad venían 5 contados. Un asco! Mucha gente además.

(Translated by Google) The service from the waiters could have been VERY much improved. My partner and I went for lunch. We asked for a table on the terrace, but the waiter told us they didn't have one and that we had to go inside. And when they were setting the tablecloth for us, not even two minutes had passed since we arrived, and they seated two couples outside, preparing and clearing their tables. I would have left the table as it was and left, if it weren't for the poor waiter, who didn't even know where to hide when we told him about the terrible MISTAKE. As for the food? Nothing more. You have better places at BETTER prices (because they rip you off too). (Original) El servicio por parte de los camareros MUY mejorable. Hemos ido mi pareja y yo a comer, hemos pedido preguntado por una mesa en la terraza, el camarero nos dijo que no habían y que tenía que ser dentro. Y cuando nos están poniendo el mantel, ni dos minutos pasan desde que llegamos, y sientan a dos parejas fuera, preparándoles y sacándoles mesa. Hubiese dejado la mesa tal cual y me hubiese ido, si no fuese por el pobre del camarero, que no sabía ni dónde meterse cuando le hemos comentado la tremenda CAGADA. Referente a la comida? Sin más. Tenéis más sitios mejores y a MEJOR precio (Por q también os la clavan).

(Translated by Google) We went to the restaurant despite its low rating because we had already booked, and we were pleasantly surprised. The waiters were really nice, and the food was excellent: Russian salad, calamari, and raxo. The Santiago cake for dessert was homemade. The prices were in line with the area and the month we were there. (Original) Hemos ido al restaurante a pesar de su baja valoración porque ya habíamos reservado, y nos hemos llevado una grata sorpresa. Las chicas que nos han atendido francamente agradables, y la comida muy buena: ensaladilla rusa, calamares y raxo. La tarta de Santiago de postre es casera. El precio acorde a la zona y el mes en el que estamos.

(Translated by Google) We ordered calamari, Russian salad, veal croutons, and seafood salpicon, and everything was very good. The staff was also attentive. We will definitely return. (Original) Pedimos unos calamares, ensaladilla rusa, croca de ternera y salpicón de mariscos, y todo estaba muy bien. La atención del personal también es buena. Volveremos con toda seguridad.

(Translated by Google) We tried this new restaurant in La Toja, but unfortunately we don't think we will return. The restaurant is well decorated, we were very comfortable because there were not many people and the service was friendly, but the food disappointed us. We ordered: “Marqués” Homemade Salad, which seemed very normal to us; Beef Croquettes (8 in the portion), which did not have a beef flavor, but rather a spice reminiscent of curry; Betanzos-style omelette, without a doubt the biggest disappointment, since the egg and potato were not well integrated and the result was a French omelette with potatoes (nothing special) inside; Squid with Encebollados, very delicious; and Chestnut Pork Raxo, which although it was rich in flavor, for our taste was a little dry, with a lack of peppers and not at all juicy compared to other raxo dishes that they serve in restaurants in the area. We had 5 people for dinner and, although the portions are not particularly large, we were fine with what we ordered. What we loved was the bread they gave us, which was delicious. Total 🟰 €116.8 (Original) Probamos este nuevo restaurante en la Toja, pero, por desgracia, no creemos que vayamos a volver. El restaurante está bien decorado, estuvimos muy a gusto porque no había mucha gente y el servicio fue amable, pero la comida nos decepcionó. Pedimos: Ensaladilla Casera “del Marqués”, que nos pareció muy normal; Croquetas de Buey (8 en la ración), que no tenían sabor a buey, sino a una especia que recordaba al curry; Tortilla al estilo Betanzos, sin duda la mayor decepción, ya que el huevo y la patata no estaban bien integrados y el resultado fue una tortilla francesa con patatas (nada especiales) dentro; Chipirones Encebollados, muy ricos; y Raxo de Cerdo de Castaña, que aunque estaba rico de sabor, para nuestro gusto estaba un poco seco, y con escasez de pimientos y nada jugoso en comparación a otros platos de raxo que ponen en restaurantes de la zona. Cenamos 5 personas y, aunque las raciones no son especialmente grandes, nos quedamos bien con lo que pedimos. Lo que nos encantó fue el pan que nos pusieron, que estaba buenísimo. Total 🟰 116,8€

(Translated by Google) Very attentive, polite, and pleasant staff. The food was delicious and very good. The place was spotless. I would definitely return. (Original) Personal muy atento, educado y agradable. Comida muy buena y sabrosa. Local impecable. Volvería sin duda

(Translated by Google) A very nice and cozy place, they treated us very well, they also brought us a tapa of chorizo and crusts before eating which were very tasty. (Original) Un sitio muy agradable y acogedor, nos han atendido muy bien ,también nos han sacado una tapa de chorizo y cortezas hantes de comer q estaban muy ricas

La comida está muy rica y el servicio muy atento y amable. Comimos

Great food, a good service, but the restaurant was full with boxes and trash

This place is incredible! I have to say, that I did not expect that when we first came in, but I got proven wrong. The food was absolutely amazing and there are many options to choose from. The prices are very normal, so its not too expensive. The atmosphere of the bar is very good, even though not completely my preference. But from an objective point of view quite nice. And now I will talk about the absolute highlight of this place, wich is the service! I seldom have felt this positive and good after eating out. The owner was very friendly, helpful and nice. Since he found out I dont speak spanish (my companion did though) he did his best to speak enlish to me and at the end (since he found out that I am from Germany) said goodbye in my native language. I really apreciate this kind of service and closeness. Thank you very much for that experience! I cannot remommend this place enough!

Nothing served with the drink. No nuts, olives, nada. There’s better places that serve pinchos or tapas near.

(Translated by Google) Very unpleasant. I don't think I'll be back. I was at Bar Ixo (La Toja) yesterday and my experience was terrible. We arrived at 10:10 p.m., and at first, everything seemed fine. We were served by a very friendly waitress, whom I asked if we could get a snack. She said yes without a problem, brought us the menu, and we took our order. There were only three tables occupied, so it didn't seem busy. After 35 minutes without receiving our food, I politely asked if they knew how much longer it would take. The response left me speechless: they told me that since everything is made "from scratch," they had to peel and cook the potatoes for the lacón con grelos I ordered. Still, I appreciated the response and decided to wait without complaining. Five minutes later, my husband's and son's plates arrived. I told them to start eating so they wouldn't get cold. And then the worst happened: I overheard the bar owner talking about us with another regular, laughing and saying that he can't stand people in a hurry, and that "now he was really going to make me wait." All of this just five meters from our table. Since my family had already finished dinner by 11:10 p.m. and I still hadn't received my plate, I decided to get up and ask for the bill. To top it all off, they wanted to charge me for the lacón con grelos (pork loin with turnip greens), which was never served. I respectfully explained the situation, and he eventually rectified his decision. But his attitude was incredibly rude, even insinuating that "this is a bar, not a restaurant," and clearly showing signs of having been drinking. In the end, he told me he didn't care if I didn't come back. And indeed, I won't be back. This place thrives on its summer regulars and doesn't seem to have any interest in treating those of us who come from out of town well. It's a shame, because the place has no charm whatsoever: just an ordinary bar in a shopping center, with shabby service that doesn't justify its supposed reputation. My experience was certainly nothing like the good reviews I'd read before. (Original) Muy desagradable. No pienso volver. Estuve ayer en Bar Ixo (La Toja) y mi experiencia fue pésima. Llegamos a las 22:10 y, en un principio, todo parecía ir bien. Nos atendió una camarera muy simpática, a quien pregunté si era posible picar algo. Me dijo que sí sin problema, nos trajo la carta y tomamos nota. Solo había tres mesas ocupadas, así que no parecía que hubiera mucho ajetreo. Pasados 35 minutos sin recibir la comida, pregunté de forma educada si sabían cuánto más iba a tardar. La respuesta me dejó sin palabras: me dijeron que como todo lo hacen “desde cero”, tenían que pelar y cocer las patatas para el lacón con grelos que pedí. Aun así, agradecí la respuesta y decidí esperar sin quejarme. A los 5 minutos llegaron los platos de mi marido y mi hijo. Les dije que empezaran a comer para que no se les enfriara. Y entonces ocurrió lo peor: escuché al dueño del bar hablando de nosotros con otro cliente habitual, riéndose y diciendo que no soporta a la gente con prisas, y que “ahora sí que me iba a hacer esperar”. Todo eso a apenas cinco metros de nuestra mesa. Como a las 23:10 mi familia ya había terminado de cenar y yo seguía sin recibir mi plato, decidí levantarme y pedir la cuenta. Para colmo, me querían cobrar el lacón con grelos que nunca llegó a servirse. Le expliqué la situación con respeto y finalmente rectificó. Pero su actitud fue increíblemente grosera, incluso insinuando que “esto es un bar, no un restaurante”, y claramente con signos de haber bebido. Al final me dijo que le daba igual si no volvía. Y efectivamente, no volveré. Este sitio vive de los clientes habituales del verano, y no parece tener ningún interés en tratar bien a quienes llegamos de fuera. Una pena, porque el lugar no tiene encanto alguno: un bar cualquiera en un centro comercial, con un trato lamentable que no justifica su supuesta fama. Desde luego, mi experiencia no se parece en nada a las buenas reseñas que había leído antes.

(Translated by Google) Very good, the food is a 10-point score. Everything is very tasty and the portions are generous. The best part is the squid croquettes. The waiter is very friendly, and we received excellent service. Highly recommended. (Original) Muy buena, la cocina es 10 puntos. Todo muy sabroso y porciones abundantes. Lo mejor, las croquetas de chipirones, el camarero es muy enrollado, nos han atendido muy bien. Muy recomendado.

(Translated by Google) Disgraceful is the word that best describes the waiter's attitude and professionalism. It took 45 minutes for a salad to be served, and 35 minutes for a sandwich. And if that weren't enough, I politely said we had to catch a bus, hence the rush, and he replied, "I should have gone to a Burger King." At the same time, he invited me to leave if I was in such a hurry. There were seven of us, and as you can see in the photo, I hadn't even started yet. Anyway, he was completely taken. A customer service course wouldn't hurt. (Original) Impresentable es la palabra que define la actitud y profesionalidad del camarero. 45 minutos para que me sirvan una ensalada y 35 minutos un sanwich. Y por si fuera poco, con toda la educación digo que tenemos que coger un bus, de ahí la premura y me contesta: Haber ido a un burger kin. A la par que me invita a marcharme si tengo tanta prisa. Eramos siete comensales y como se puede constatar en la foto, yo todavía no había empezado. En fin, quedó retratado. Un cursillo de atención al cliente no le vendría mal.

(Translated by Google) We arrived for lunch today, Sunday, and the restaurant was completely empty. We sat down, and he told us he could only serve us one empanada because a reservation for a larger table was arriving in two minutes, and until that reservation arrived and the food was cooked for them, we wouldn't be served anything. I repeat, the restaurant was completely EMPTY. The manager told us this was their way of working, and if we wanted to eat, we'd have to wait a long time for these people to arrive and be served. We left. We were in the restaurant next to that one, and 20 minutes later, we saw that absolutely no one had arrived yet. Hilarious, the worst service I've ever seen. (Original) Llegamos a comer hoy domingo, el restaurante completamente vacío, nos sentamos y nos dice que solo puede servirnos una empanada ya que en dos minutos llegaba una reserva de una mesa más grande y hasta que no llegase esa reserva y se les cocinase a ellos, a nosotros no nos iban a servir nada. Repito, restaurante VACÍO por completo. Nos dice el encargado que esta es su forma de trabajar y que si queremos comer vamos a tener que esperar mucho hasta que llegue esta gente y se les sirva. Nos vamos. Estamos en el restaurante pegado a ese y vemos 20 minutos después que aún no ha llegado absolutamente nadie. De risa, el peor servicio visto en mi vida.

Outstanding food. Seafood was extremely fresh. We ordered a seafood platter 65€ each which included wine, dessert, water, bread, coffee. It would have got five stars but we booked in advance and were given a table near the entrance and not near a windows that had views of the sea. When questioned we were told they were fully booked but tables were still empty when we left.

There are few things that make a restaurant perfect: food, service, and the environment. Punta Vendaval have all of them. The food is delicious, with quality local ingredients, the service is excellent and the view is incredible. We dinner several times in our stay at the hotel and we will back for more.

The place is overrated and overpriced. The food was fine but mediocre. It is the first restaurant in Spain we have been to where chupitos were not in the house, which greatly disappointed us. Especially considering the prices and the assumed status of restaurant. I would not recommend to dine in there.

Expensive and average food and service My entrecot was accompanied with frozen French fries which makes no sense for this restaurant Dessert was good

(Translated by Google) It's a luxury restaurant, and you pay for it. The service was correct and friendly, the location very nice, with plenty of space between tables and no music or distractions like a TV. The food was cooked to perfection, and the ingredients were of good quality, quite fresh, although the seafood was a bit small for the super price. €140 for two people might be a bit of a rip-off. It's been a while since I've had a seafood grill, and I don't know what the prices are, but €70 per person did seem a bit steep. However, we have to admit that the grilled food was incredibly delicious, perfectly grilled, and the amount seemed adequate. The shrimp cake appetizer was very juicy, and the warm vegetable and citrus salad had a dressing that would have made you dip bread and go crazy. The selection of pastries was also juicy and just the right amount. It's a treat to eat in a restaurant like this, at least for me, and every now and then you have to treat yourself, right? (Original) Es un restaurante de lujo y eso se paga. El servicio estuvo correcto y amable, el local pues muy chulo con buena separación entre mesas y sin música ni distracciones como tele. La comida estaba perfecta de cocinado y los productos pues de buena calidad, bastante frescos aunque un pelín pequeños los mariscos para el super precio que tienen. 140 euros para 2 personas quizás sea un poco timo, hace mucho que no como parrillada de mariscos y no sé en que rangos andan los precios pero sí nos pareció algo exagerado 70 euros por persona. Eso sí, hay que reconocer que la parrillada estaba increíble de rica, en su punto de plancha y de cantidad nos pareció adecuada. El aperitivo de pastel de gambas muy jugoso y la ensalada templada de verduritas y cítricos tenía un aliño de mojar pan y no parar. El surtido de pasteles también jugoso y de cantidad justa. Es un capricho comer en un restaurante así, al menos para mí y de vez en cuando hay que darse algún capricho, o no?

(Translated by Google) A magnificent seafood grill and dessert tasting in a fantastic atmosphere with excellent service and spectacular views. Highly recommended. (Original) Magnífica parrillada de mariscos y degustación de postres en un ambiente fantástico con un gran servicio y unas vistas espectaculares. Recomendable.

(Translated by Google) I'd venture to say it's the restaurant with the best views on the entire island. Everything is very well-maintained. I was struck by the cleanliness and how lovely the La Toja soap smelled in the bathroom by the pool. The food is very good and not expensive, considering the outstanding quality of service! Everyone who served us was super friendly. Magnificent. A special mention to Bea, a lovely person with a bright future in the high-end hotel industry. I know what I'm talking about. (Original) Me atrevería a decir que es el restaurante con mejores vistas de toda la isla. Todo está muy cuidado. Me llamó la atención la limpieza y lo bien que olía a jabón de La Toja el baño de la piscina. La comida está muy bien y no es cara, teniendo en cuenta que la calidad del servicio es sobresaliente! Todas las personas que nos atendieron fueron super amables. Magníficas. Especial mención a Bea, un amor de persona y con un gran futuro en el sector de hoteles de nivel. Sé de lo que hablo.

Don't go there. 90 minutes waiting, served cold, some mistakes. We got no real apologies for the torture.

A normal bar to have a drink. Nothing special.

Great place, food and area for kids to play whilst adults relax! Thank you for a tasty BBQ lunch 😋

Thanks for the nice cool beer and a nice talk about football WREXHAM All The Best

Top!

Good food to go ahead

Ideal.

Beautiful location with historic charm, clean rooms, and excellent facilities. At around €400 per night, the price feels fair for what you get, and by Galician standards the quality is still very good. The spa treatment was 10/10, and all staff were friendly — especially the gentleman at breakfast with his old-school 5-star welcome, and the helpful checkout receptionist. A few details could be improved: at check-in my 84-year-old parents were left standing with no seat or drink offered, luggage help only came after asking, and the “sea view plus with thermal club” room had no balcony despite being told it would. Rooms weren’t side by side as implied, our keys had to be reprogrammed, only one bottle of water was provided, no coffee capsules in one room, no poolside service, and breakfast lacked champagne, menu, and à la carte dishes. The spa lift was out of order and there were minor maintenance issues (rust, broken lights). Still, for the location, charm, and friendliness of the staff, this hotel offers a high standard for Galicia. With clearer booking info, more consistent service, and small upgrades, it could be truly exceptional.

We were given a corner room which had great view. The room is large. Hot water came very quick and plenty. The breakfast had wide range and good in quality. Dining room had beautiful ocean view. The pool and gym were also good.

Good hotel. Great service, very clean and lovely views from the room. La Toja is a beautiful island to visit and O Grove has a lot to offer. Love this part of the world.

(Translated by Google) Magnificent experience! The staff was unbeatable, professional, and friendly. I want to give special mention to Pepe and Jaime, from the restaurant's dinner service, for their attention and kindness. They were especially attentive to me, as I suffer from multiple food allergies, and were able to adapt the menu whenever necessary. The stay was magnificent. The hotel stands out for its impeccable facilities and services. The room, very beautiful and comfortable, featured unusual but highly appreciated details, such as the hairdryer with diffuser and the vertical iron: it's the first time I've found them in a hotel. Everything was extremely clean. The hotel's air freshener, homemade according to what they told us, added a very pleasant touch. The breakfast buffet was simply wonderful. The quality and variety of products were outstanding, all with sea views. Having breakfast like this is a true pleasure! The spa treatments were very varied, and the facilities were very comfortable to enjoy. An experience that I will definitely repeat and recommend. (Original) ¡Magnifica experiencia! El trato del personal ha sido inmejorable, profesionales y cercanos. Quiero hacer una mención especial a Pepe y Jaime, del servicio de cenas en el restaurante, por su atención y amabilidad. Fueron especialmente cuidadosos conmigo, ya que padezco múltiples alergias alimentarias, y supieron adaptarme el menú siempre que fue necesario. La estancia ha sido magnífica. El hotel destaca por sus impecables instalaciones y servicios. La habitación, muy bonita y confortable, contaba con detalles poco habituales pero muy valorados, como el secador con difusor y la plancha vertical: es la primera vez que los encuentro en un hotel. Todo estaba extremadamente limpio. El ambientador del hotel, de elaboración propia según nos contaron, aportaba un toque muy agradable. El comedor-buffet del desayuno fue simplemente maravilloso. Gran calidad y variedad de productos, todo con vistas al mar. ¡Desayunar así es un verdadero placer! Mucha variedad en los tratamientos del balneario y además con las instalaciones muy confortables para disfrutarlos. Una experiencia que, sin duda, repetiré y recomendaré.

(Translated by Google) We went to check out the hotel, famous in the area and steeped in history. We spent just one night and took the opportunity to go to the spa and get a treatment. We had a good time; it has the character of the grand old 5-star hotels. They let us use the pool after checkout without any problem. The treatments were fine (we did the "Thermal Relaxation" package I saw on their website, as we wanted something that combined a massage and a salt bath). It was fine for the experience, although we might not repeat it. I'm surprised they didn't recommend it at the spa, given that I called several times; I got the impression they weren't very familiar with what they offer. The breakfast was truly amazing. NOTE: the cleanliness: the room carpet was stained in different shapes, colors, and sizes... cobwebs everywhere you looked. Dust everywhere, even on the nightstand and in the closet (which are used daily?). The spa pool was slippery from the dirt inside. Half of the jets and buttons didn't work properly, and the ones that did were barely noticeable, except for one swan-neck jet, which was so powerful you couldn't even get under it without getting the whole room wet (I think it was a bit broken). It's a hotel that was and is renowned, but it needs renovations now, and if not, the price should be adjusted to what's offered... We also saw guests being shown the hotel and the facilities, which we weren't even offered. We went investigating ourselves, opening doors almost at random. Be aware that after 7-8 p.m., the outdoor bar is no longer open, and you can only get a drink at an interior bar, which is a bit overwhelming in the middle of summer! It's a shame that the terrace isn't used; it has a bar set up, but it doesn't seem to be used. In short, we didn't feel comfortable or "at home." For the price we paid, we expected something else. I got the impression that many of the guests are longtime guests, who have been there with their families for years, and are fond of the hotel, but it clearly needs to be updated. (Original) Fuimos para conocer el hotel, famoso en la zona y con gran historia. Pasamos una noche solo y aprovechamos para ir al spa y hacernos un tratamiento. Estuvimos bien, tiene esa solera de los grandes hoteles antiguos de 5 estrellas, nos dejaron estar en la piscina tras el check out sin problema. Los tratamientos correctos (hicimos el pack “Relax Termal” que vi en su página web, ya que queríamos algo que combinara masaje y baño con sales). Está bien para la experiencia, aunque no repetiríamos quizá. Me sorprende que no me lo recomendaran en el balneario dado que llamé en varias ocasiones, me dio la impresión de que no conocen bien la oferta. El desayuno una auténtica pasada. OJO la limpieza: la moqueta de la habitación manchada de distintas formas, colores y tamaños… telas de araña allá donde miraras. Polvo en todos lados, hasta en la mesilla de noche o en el armario (que son de uso diario?). La piscina del spa se hacía resbaladiza de la suciedad que llevaba, la mitad de chorros y botones no iban bien y los que iban casi ni se notaban, excepto uno de cuello de cisne que era tal la potencia que ni te podías poner abajo sin mojar toda la sala (me da que estaba algo roto). Es un hotel que ha sido y es de gran renombre, pero necesita una reforma ya, y de no ser así, ajustar el precio a lo que se ofrece… También vimos que a huéspedes les enseñaban el hotel y las instalaciones, cosa que ni nos ofrecieron, lo fuimos investigando nosotros, abriendo puertas casi al azar. Ojo que a partir de las 19-20 ya no tienen abierto el bar exterior y solo te puedes tomar algo en un bar interior que echa para atrás, en pleno verano!! Es una pena que no se aproveche esa terraza, tiene preparada una barra pero parece ser que no se usa. En definitiva, no nos llegamos a sentir cómodos ni “en casa”, para el precio que se paga, esperábamos otra cosa. Me dio la impresión de que gran parte de los clientes son de toda la vida, que ya han ido previamente con sus familias hace años, y tienen cariño al hotel, pero tiene que actualizarse, está claro.

(Translated by Google) A memorable family stay (8 adults and 5 children) at this legendary hotel, which retains the essence of the summer holidays of yesteryear but with 21st-century comforts. Spacious and beautifully decorated rooms, and common areas where you never feel like the hotel is full, especially the pool and its sun lounger area, where there's always plenty of space at any time, even right on the beachfront. A hearty, quality breakfast with Galician bread and country cheese, accompanied by beautiful piano music. By the second day, the staff already knows you and greets you warmly. Raquel's kindness and Juan's excellent advice for exploring the island by walking to Punta Cabreira are particularly noteworthy. We will definitely return! (Original) Memorable estancia familiar (8 adultos y 5 niños) en este legendario hotel, que sigue manteniendo la esencia del veraneo de antaño pero con las comodidades del siglo XXI. Habitaciones espaciosas y bien decoradas, zonas comunes donde en ningún momento sientes que el hotel está lleno, sobre todo la piscina y su zona de hamacas, donde siempre hay sitio de sobra a cualquier hora, incluso en primera línea. Desayuno abundante y de calidad, con su pan gallego y su queso de aldea, amenizado con preciosa música de piano. Al segundo día el personal ya te conoce y te saluda afectuosamente, a destacar la amabilidad de Raquel y los buenos consejos de Juan para dar la vuelta a la isla paseando hasta punta Cabreira. Sin duda repetiremos!

(Translated by Google) The setting is unique, the facilities are elegant, and the service is impeccable—truly a five-star experience worth enjoying. However, I'd like to make one important suggestion: there's no bar in the pool area, and I think it would be a great idea to add one. We spent the afternoon enjoying the pool and sun loungers, but we were eager to have a drink or a snack without having to get dressed and go upstairs. In a hotel of this caliber, having a pool bar would be the most logical and convenient option for guests. Even so, the experience was excellent, and we'll definitely be back. (Original) El entorno es único, las instalaciones son elegantes y el servicio impecable, realmente un cinco estrellas que merece la pena disfrutar. Sin embargo, me gustaría hacer una sugerencia importante: en la zona de la piscina no hay bar, y creo que sería un gran acierto incorporarlo. Pasamos la tarde disfrutando de la piscina y las tumbonas, pero con ganas de tomar algo o picar sin tener que vestirse y subir a la primera planta. En un hotel de este nivel, disponer de un servicio de bar en la piscina sería lo más lógico y cómodo para los clientes. Aun así, la experiencia fue excelente y seguro que volveremos.

It is unfair to sell dishes which are not on the card as catch of the day, and not tell the prices in advance. I understand as a client one can ask too, but prices on the card are deliberately misleading (35 euro) and the catch of the day is 60 euro for the zalm and 160 euro (!) for another fish (for 2 persons). Tell the price in advance and I probably experienced a luxurious meal,now I feel a stupid scammed tourist.

(Translated by Google) Disappointing and exorbitant price. The place is very beautiful and the views depend on the table as well. The correct service and the timings too. The worst thing without a doubt is the lack of elaboration of the dishes and the exorbitant prices. Steak at €100 per kilo or in our case sea bream at €120 per piece for 2, we are talking about grilled fish as it is, cold and poorly done inside, with 4 potatoes and you'll figure it out yourself. It's a shame to arrive with so many expectations and leave so disappointed. (Original) Decepcionante y precio desorbitado. El sitio es muy bonito y depende de la mesa las vistas también. El servicio correcto y los timings también. Lo peor sin duda es la poca elaboración de los platos y lo desorbitado de los precios. Chuletón a 100 € el kilo o en nuestro caso besugo a 120€ la pieza para 2, estamos hablando del pescado tal cual a la brasa, frio y mal hecho por dentro, con 4 patatas y ya te lo arreglarás tú. Una pena llegar con tantas espectativas y salir tan decepcionados.

(Translated by Google) Nice restaurant with good views. But I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT, not even in my head. When you order a sea bream for two that doesn't even weigh 500 grams, and they want to charge you 70 euros for the two tiny fillets they offered. You protest, and they knock 10 euros off your price 😂 . A complete scam. Paying 166 euros for two people. There aren't many options on the island, and they're trying to squeeze tourists. They tell me it's 70 euros per kilo, and then they want to charge you 70 euros for a not-so-big sea bream. You judge. (Original) Bonito restaurante con buenas vistas. Pero NO LO RECOMIENDO ni de broma. Cuando pides un Sargo para dos que no pesa ni 500 gramos y te quieren cobrar 70 euros por los dos minúsculos filetes que daba. Protestas y te rebajan 10 euros 😂 . Un engaño en toda regla. Pagar 166 euros dos personas. En la isla no hay muchas opciones y tratan de exprimir al turista. Me dicen que son 70 euros el quilo y luego por un Sargo no muy grande te quieren cobrar los 70 euros. Opinen ustedes.

(Translated by Google) Very bad experience. We ate size S cockles at the price of XXL. They offer you fish for 2 off the menu and they charge you for 4 people. But the worst thing is that we had stomach problems all night and my son vomited and had stomach pain the entire next day. Appalling. (Original) Muy mala experiencia. Comimos berberechos tamaño S al precio de XXL. Te ofrecen pescado para 2 fuera de carta y te cobran por 4 personas. Pero lo peor es que estuvimos toda la noche con problemas estomacales y mi hijo vomitando y con dolor de estómago todo el día siguiente. Pésimo.

(Translated by Google) Friendly staff and a pleasant location. The price is exorbitant for what you get. We decided to order a flank steak for €45 and a sirloin steak for €48 off the menu. The tomato salad with tuna belly was conspicuously absent. (Original) Personal correcto y sitio agradable. Precio exorbitante por lo que te dan. Se nos ocurrió pedir fuera de carta una entraña por 45 € y un solomillo por 48€. La ensalada de tomate con ventresca la ventresca brillaba por su ausencia .

(Translated by Google) Very expensive! Average food quality. Don't even think about ordering off the menu without asking the price = sirloin steak €48. I'm used to going to good restaurants, but this was a rip-off, sorry! (Original) Carísimo! Calidad de comida normal. No se te ocurra pedir fuera de carta sin preguntar precio = solomillo 48€ . Estoy acostumbrado ir a restaurantes buenos pero esto hay fue un timo, lo siento!

(Translated by Google) Awesome! Everything perfect, the food of course. But also the views of the sea and the treatment of the waitresses. And an unbeatable quality/price ratio. Especially for those of us who come from Madrid. It was a great meal. (Original) Impresionante! Todo perfecto, la comida por supuesto. Pero tambien las vistas al mar y el trato de las camareras. Y una relacion calidad/precio insuperable. Sobre todo para los que venimos de Madrid. Fue una comida estupenda.

We found this lovely location during a summer visit to the area. I still dream about the tomato salad. It’s a perfect place for all food preferences.

It was a pleasure to visit this cafe. The food is very diverse and can suit people with different tastes. Our favorites were the salad, caramel ice cream, and anchovy toast. The ambience is very cozy

Great food! A mix of local and international dishes, in a fun atmosphere. Very friendly owners Save some room for a fantastic dessert

Very good for vegetarians, living off bread for a week it was nice to see a menu with healthy food as well as some waffles and pancakes The staff were so lovely and friendly, the seats and look of the place was very nice and the food was very good, would definitely return if I was ever in La Toja again 💕

Delicious brunch and the service was so friendly! Will definitely return.

(Translated by Google) A modern-style cafe where you can order ice cream. They offer a variety of ice cream from the local brand, Bico. You can also have breakfast or a snack, and they have a variety of food and coffees, both hot and cold. The cappuccino was very good and well made. I also tried an oatmeal, and it was very tasty. I was surprised and highly recommended. They also gave me a cookie with my coffee, which is appreciated, a nice touch. The service was good, and they were friendly. (Original) Una cafetería de estilo moderno donde pues pedir un helado, cuentan con variedad de la marca bico, que es de la zona. Además puedes desayunar o merendar y cuenta con variedad tanto de comida como de cafés tanto fríos como calientes. El capuchino estaba muy bueno y con una buena ejecución. También probé una oatmeal y estaba muy buena, me sorprendió y os la recomiendo. Además, junto con el café me pusieron una galletita, lo cual es de agradecer, un bonito detalle. El trato fue bueno, fueron simpáticas.
