Was on a cruise and our ship docked at Vigo seaport. The A Laxe shopping centre is directly by the port as you get out. Nice mall with restaurants and a lot of people selling all sorts of merchandise near the shopping centre. Had a good wander round and saw some shops inside the mall. Was able to access a path leading to the city centre from the top floor of the mall so decided to stroll into the city centre. Had a refreshing Bubble tea drink at a Bubble tea shop. Lovely day overall as the weather was also very good. 😍 🤩 👌🏾

I bought a cottom candy from a vending machine to my daugther, the machine was broken without a sign and there was no one from management to complain to. I lost 3 euros and my daughter crying because of this. The center seems to be abandoned. A lot of closed stores and there are almost no places to eat.

This modern three levels mall is very well located just in the waterfront by the Marina area in Vigo and has a good variety of stores, restaurants and cafeterias to serve locals and all the tourists that arrive in the mayority of the cruises. The scenic views are spectacular and the sunsets stunning!!

So cute, scenic shopping mall with a lot to offer!! Lovely places to eat with seriously yummy food which is so delicious with excellent enchanting views! Christmassy at the moment with it’s sweet decorations and large tree on the ground floor!

Very hilly here, but the shopping centre has a lift and a bridge taking you to the top of the town. Shopping centre was OK, same as any other, but the views are amazing.

Nice to do some shopping and have a cup of coffee with your friends especially when it's raining a lot. There's a terrace with a spectacular view, come to enjoy the sunset!

Nice spot but average shops

An alley with several seafood restaurants. Gets a good atmosphere when the place is crowded. Chefs prepare fresh oysters while you watch. Take care of the handbag hawkers in the area. Souvenir shops also nearby.

Great place for ourdoor dining. The gallego seafood paella was delicious, had a lot of different seafood and not too heavy with rice.

Messy place 🤨 much better places nearby. And... Avoid these oysters. Verms included 🤮

The square was by the mercado was under construction leaching to a low score on this visit. The oysters were a bit too salty and left a bad after taste. I love oysters, so it was disappointing.

Great for shopping, dining, and people watching!

Fabulous little treat to find, moments from the shopping main street and walking distance to the port. Old fashioned and typically Spanish street selling souvenirs, a few coffee shops and cafe's. The souvenir shops are well stocked and not expensive, a brilliant little distraction and find while visiting Vigo.

Nice market to visit but don't expect too much. It is very small, with some shops, popular with tourists, although it was not as we expected. The seafood is definitely the highlight so go if you want to have lunch or if you want to taste some fresh octopus and oysters. It is interesting because it seems historic but it seems forgotten, in my opinion, it is not a landmark.

Unfortunately, I found Mar de Ons’ policy to be deeply unfair. It may be legal under Spanish legislation, but they do not allow passengers to cancel after 14 days and changes are only possible if requested more than 5 days in advance. This leaves customers stuck in unforeseen situations, with no flexibility. There is a clear imbalance, passengers have no right to cancel or modify, even if willing to pay more, while the company reserves full freedom to cancel at any time. It goes against consumer interests and it is a poor costumer service and the costumer service is a waste of out time with standard replies… If you are looking for more flexible options, I suggest booking other Navieras, which often offers a “Cancel for Any Reason” option, allowing refunds even if the passenger changes plans, although subject to specific fees and conditions. I hope this helps other international travelers make more informed choices!

Ruben was very kind, gave us a lot of information and could answer all of our questions. The islands are incredible and we would highly recommend everyone to visit the national park and join a tour.

Ruben, our guide, was an interesting, funny, full of love to the island and made this tour so fascinating. We learnt many things and the island is just beautiful. Thanks so much.

Beautiful island, amazing tour guide named Ruben was funny and energetic. Highly recommended!

Great trip to the Cies Islands! Lucked into a private tour with Monserrat once I got to the island because everyone else ended up on the Spanish speaking tour. She did a great job answering all my questions and showed me some beautiful sights!

Thanks to our very kind and great guide Ruben. He told us so much about the islands Cies. It was a great walk through the national park. It’s a must see !

The Cíes Islands are very beautiful, and easy to get to with Mar de Ons. The office was friendly & helpful when I contacted them, and the person who did the short tour (optional) was also friendly. An overall nice experience.

I was in Vigo on New Year’s Eve 2025, and I had a disappointing experience. This year, the city’s mayor decided not to hold New Year’s fireworks or organize any celebrations in the city. Although the Christmas lights were nice, they were similar to those in other cities and didn’t stand out much. What was particularly frustrating was the lack of any announcement for visitors from other cities about the absence of New Year’s Eve celebrations. This was quite disappointing and disrespectful to those who came to enjoy the festivities.

Very pleasant. All except for one place called Jamaica coffee experience. If you can call it an experience more like a joke. Waited over an hour and that's with me speaking to the waitress twice. Absolutely waist of time totaly brain dead so keep away. Here is a picture of the place .

Wonderful meeting spot! Sculpture to guard the port, amazing sights, shops, restaurants, architecture. Love Vigo

Vigo was so beautifully decorated. Absolute fun. Friendly people, nice ambience and a laid-back port city up north of Spain.

Love this square and statue. This is a major meetup spot and it's even active on Sunday mornings. Perfect spot to chill, have a cortado, and people watch.

Big plaza , amazing street food and street shops. We loved Vigo!

If you think it's a beautiful piece of art try going to the bus stop in front of it and looking into its eyes! Then, tell me if you still think so...I think it's an ugly statue but a place you must know because it's a reference point. It's right in the center of the city.

Loved the place lots of uphill walking but worth the view of the harbour and surrounding area.

Excellent place to visit, a must I would say with clear skies. Awesome views with a mix of ancient history

Magnificent views overlooking Vigo in a place full of historical significance.

Best spot, to see the sunset in Vigo! You can see all of the ocean, the Cies Islands, the bridge! I totally recommend it to everyone. Don't go without a cerveza! For picknick with your friends, it's the best as well!! Also, you can run and do sports around it, the best to do in the sunrise or sunset;)

At the top of the mountain, right in the middle of the fortress that crowns it, some walls from the 17th century that today are the best vantage point of Vigo and the estuary to the Atlantic Ocean. Within these walls are the castle of O Castro and its gardens, as well as sculptures such as the monument to Vigo by Camilo Nogueira or the tribute to the medieval poet Martín Codax. Walking down the paths bordering the fortifications towards the historic quarter, you will come to a new vantage point where the Rande Galleons Monument is located.. It consists of anchors and various cannons that were found from three of the dozens of ships sunk in the Vigo estuary during the Battle of the Rande in 1702, when the Anglo-Dutch fleet and a Spanish fleet escorted by a French collided. Very interesting place, a gem in history.

Great views of Vigo got lucky with parki g as this is limited so would advise an early visit. Nice cafe on site as well for refreshments afterwards 👍

Nice place to walk up and watch the sun go down, lots of history and with some information but in Spanish only. Would recommend a visit as you can see all of Vigo and the mountains and islands around

If I could give a 6 star rating, this would be the place! Amazing seafood. From appetizers through to the coffee schnapps at end the night, just wonderful! Service was AMAZING! Helping us with our Spanish while peaking very good English, she made meal most enjoyable. Her description of every course guided us all to something on the menu. A party of 5, 3 had seafood, 1 had a steak, and 1 had a vegetarian dish. We tried 3 of the deserts w/ the “French toast” as everyone’s favorite. I had the grilled, wild turbot, and also pictured is the vegetables over rice and the Arroz de monkfish and prawns.

To be honest, this is a very expensive place. Expect to spend around €40–€60 per person depending on what you order. While the food quality and service are excellent, some guests feel the pricing is a bit steep for the overall setting, which hasn’t been modernized much over the years. “Top food, but pricey. The place could use some renovation.” The quality of the food is absolutely top-tier. From fresh oysters, scallops, and barnacles to Galician-style octopus and perfectly cooked fish and seafood rice dishes, everything is sourced locally and served with care. They focus on seasonal products, traditional recipes, and fresh seafood straight from the Ría de Vigo. Dishes like the rice with lobster, grilled razor clams, and classic empanadas are standouts. Overall is a very good restaurant.

Excellent restaurant that has been in operation since the 1930s. The menu is not extensive but everything is delicious and very well prepared. Great wine list and impecable service. Highly recommended.

One of the best restaurants i been in Vigo . I Love all of food here and services in great ❤️

The best food we had while in Galiza. The rice is to die for, the sea bass was grilled to perfection, and their wine recommendation was spot on. Plus there were all sorts of delicious mini starters. The service was perfect too. Everyone was just so nice. We ate indoors. It was raining and im not sure they have an outdoors area, but it the room was warm and welcoming. I strongly recommend

My wife and I spent 4 weeks in Portugal and Spain walking the Camino and doing a little extra sight seeing. This restaurant was recommended by the attendant at our hotel. I am so glad we took her advice. This was by far the best meal we had during our entire visit and the best meal we’ve had anywhere this year. The appetizer (carpaccio…) looked like no dish I’ve ever had, with the fish sliced so thin that it almost looked like a film. It also tasted like nothing I’ve ever had. The flavors were surprising, but perfectly balanced. Our main dish (lubina…) was expertly separated from the bones at our table by the waiter. I couldn’t stop eating because it was so good. Between the bottle of wine, bread, appetizer, complementary appetizer, and the main course, we were stuffed, but I couldn’t leave without sampling a dessert. It was equally amazing. The restaurant staff worked together harmoniously to produce not just an amazing meal, but a truly extraordinary dining experience. The only meal I can compare it to anywhere is a Michelin star restaurant in the states that we’ve eaten at only a few times over many years due to its expense. El Mosquito was similar in overall quality at a fraction of the price. I would never miss the opportunity to eat there again. Finally, lest you think I have some reason to invent this review, rest assured that’s not the case. I have no connection of any kind to this restaurant, other than being a very happy customer.

Ate here at the recommendation of the hotel staff (Hotel Cuidad de Vigo) our first night in Spain. They accepted a pretty late reservation request, recommended spectacular wine, the food was perfect and service was excellent with some unexpected gifts during the meal.

Family run Italian restaurant in a sea of Spanish Restaurants. Good food, good service and good music just a short walk from the Harbour.

(Translated by Google) Well the truth is I was very disappointed, I went once and I was amazed, excellent service and fast food, I came back with all the excitement to relive the moment and nothing like what I experienced, very distracted staff, it took a long time for the food to come despite there being only us and one other table, I ordered 2 entrecotes well done but it seemed the cook did not know the point of the meat, we returned it once and it seemed he did not understand and it was basically the same, we ordered a type of pasta and they brought what they wanted, you almost had to ask for help to get a drink, the truth is I will not return, it is a shame because the first time it was excellent, I think they need to improve a lot and fix the place, it is very, very exaggeratedly neglected, a little more and if it is an abandoned place and you cannot differentiate it from one that is in use, and check the electrical connection upstairs as it has a water leak right where the high voltage cables are, that is a very big danger, I WILL NOT RETURN (Original) Bueno la verdad me quedé muy decepcionado, fui una vez y quedé maravillado exelente servicio y comida rápido, volví con toda la ilusión para revivir el momento y nada parecido a lo vivido , personal muy distraído, tardo en venir la comida a pesar de solo estar nosotros y otra mesa más , pedido 2 entrecot bien hecho pero como que el cocinero no sabe el punto de la carne , la devolvimos 1 ves y como que no lo entendió y estaba básicamente igual , pedimos un tipo de pasta y trajeron la que ellos quisieron, casi que había que pedir ayuda para que te traigan una bebida, la verdad no volveré más una pena por qué la primera vez fue excelente, yo creo que les falta mucho mejorar y arreglar el local está muy muy exageradamente descuidado, un poco más y si es un local abandonado y no los diferencias de uno que está en uso , y revisar la conexión eléctrica de la parte de arriba que tiene una filtración de agua justo donde están los cables de alta tensión eso es un peligro muy grande, NO VOLVERÉ

Excellent, food was GREAT! Great price AMAZING staff! Nice place overall Must visit

(Translated by Google) For me, one of the best Italians in Vigo. Family atmosphere and excellent food. The fried mozzarella starter is spectacular. And the pasta with carbonara sauce is a must. (Original) Para mi de los mejores italianos en Vigo. Ambiente familiar y comida excelente. El entrante de mozzarella frita está espectacular. Y la pasta con salsa carbonara es un obligado.

(Translated by Google) Very good restaurant, with good prices (starters from €1 to €6, pasta dishes between €5 and €10, pizzas for €10 or less), the waitress is very attentive and friendly. Everything super good, large portions. The place is hidden, you have to climb the wooden ramp, but it's worth it. While all the restaurants were packed, here we found a place at 1:30 p.m. to go in to eat at 2:00 p.m. Super recommended! (Original) Restaurante muy bueno, con buenos precios (entrantes desde 1€ a 6€, platos de pasta entre 5€ y 10€, pizzas por 10€ o menos), la camarera es muy atenta y amable. Todo super bueno, raciones grandes. El local está escondidito, tienes que subirte a la rampa de madera, pero vale la pena. Mientras todos los restaurantes estaban abarrotados, aqui encontramos sitio a la 13h30 para entrar a comer a las 14h. ¡Super recomendable!

(Translated by Google) We ordered four different pizzas, and they were all delicious. Very large. The waitress who served us was very friendly. The price was very good. (Original) Hemos pedido 4 pizzas diferentes y todas buenísimas. Muy grandes. La camarera que nos atendió muy amable. Muy bien de precio.

(Translated by Google) CORRECTION: after having dinner in the restaurant we had the cagotto. It could have been a coincidence but it seems strange to us. ... Kind and welcoming owner, menu with a wide choice of pasta and pizza (and more). Excellent value for money. Rustic but welcoming atmosphere. (Original) RETTIFICA: dopo aver cenato nel locale abbiamo avuto il cagotto. Potrebbe essere stata una coincidenza ma ci sembra strano. ... Proprietaria gentile e accogliente, menù con ampia scelta di pasta e pizza (e non solo). Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Atmosfera rustica, ma accogliente.

Very pleasant sandwich shop which uses black bread. Menu is in English and the staff speak English too. Photo is of the 'vegetal' which includes tuna and egg. Recommended!

Extremely pleasant service, many places that I've been to this trip to Spain, you could tell that we are treated like tourists, but here they really are friendly and the food not only looks, but is delicious. Definitely DO recommend

Delicious bocadillos, fresh and tasteful, that match perfectly with a caña. The bread is the secret sauce.

Delicious pizza with thick filling crust. One pizza is perfect size for two people.

Very fast and nice food for the price. And great cost/price ratio!

Just excellent. Nice dark bread. Fresh ingredients. Friendly service. Absolute aanrader!

Good cheap place to eat

Hearty portions, delicious food!!! Lots of octopus and seafood! Located near a tourist spot. Helpful and kind staff. Reasonable prices.

Great restaurant with amazing food and wide variety of options ( also vegetarian) ! Waiting times could be longer but the food was amazing and affordable! Service was excellent but English was hardly spoken! Anyways we are satisfied and we warmly recommend this restaurant!

Wow! Fantastic atmosphere, incredible seafood and overall, brilliant. Only complain is that the sangria wasn’t to our taste but everything else - and I mean everything - was perfect!

Food was great (it took it‘s time, but was fresh made). I‘ve ordered a Paella for 1Person. It was a very big portion, but it seems it was no Problem to take the Rest with me. The order were attentive and friendly, although the Restaurant was quite full so it was a Little Bit busy there. I think, it‘s nearly the only Restaurant where you can order a Paella just for one Person, thank you for that! Parkspaces around the city.

Excellent Paella, good service and great management, went for dinner and everything went right. Thank you so much!

Unfortunately, our experience wasn’t that great. The pulpo with vinaigrette was overcooked and chewy, while the pimientos were the highlight of the evening – really tasty. We also had the entrecôte with fries, which was served far too rare despite being ordered medium. The fries themselves were way too greasy. The sole was okay, nothing special. Overall, the service was fine, but the food didn’t live up to expectations and on top of that it was pricy – for us, not more than 3 stars.

We had 9 people and they were able to accommodate all of us with ease. We ended up ordering the four-person fish platter and the three-person paella with scallops — both were incredible, but the paella was to die for. Highly recommend this place.
