We have eaten scallops, mussels with citrus sauce, creamy rice with octopus, entrecôte and tiramisu, and we give everything a 15 out of 10. The restaurant and the surroundings are spectacular and we cannot fail to mention the service of Alejandro in the room and Jesús in the kitchen who make a cinematic team and manage to keep the customer in awe. It's worth having a cocktail on the terrace for the views.

Restaurant Fonte do Picho is located at Pazo san Maria. We took the menu. The tomato salad was divine! In the vinaigrette pine nuts and honey and grated cerbeiro cheese (from Galicia). The tomatoes had an almost black skin, so many flavors! Next came a disappointment for me: rice with crispy veal: that seemed like a plate of soup of oil and too salty to eat. My partner had veal shank (without bone) although I think it was sucade pieces, stewed in red wine with tasty potatoes, which was delicious! Finally, dessert: cake of almonds and zest of oranges: delicious again. In short: if they add less salt and oil really 5stars!

I have eaten at this restaurant 4 or 5 times, and every time the food is presented beautifully and has wonderful flavor. As a vegetarian I also found plenty to suit my needs, and on a gourmet level! My friends, who are not vegetarian, were similarly impressed. I think you can't go wrong here. The ambiance is also wonderful....lovely in every aspect of your visit (ambiance, flavor, presentation, selection). I have had several breakfasts, lunches, and dinners here from May 2018 to September 2019. Enjoy!

We booked for the good opinions, slow service (with only 2 tables occupied, us 2 and a table of 4), chose 2 menus, they take note and after a while they come out to apologize and tell us that they had no mussels left for us to change a first, they took 40 min to bring us the appetizer at the same time as the first course. We chose 2 plates of octopus with garnish, although it would be best to say that it is cabbage with octopus. 3 pieces of octopus cut lengthwise, on 4 slices of cooked potatoes and plenty of cabbage with cheese, was not what I expected. As more customers arrived, they warned them that there were no mussels or octopus left. If they offer 5 first and 4 seconds (9 courses in total, no menu) it is shocking that if they run out of one product they do not offer another. Knowing that they only have 3 servings of octopus and that they have no mussels left. 2 hours to eat a menu of first, second and dessert plus coffee for almost 90 euros. I expected more of the food...

We booked at this restaurant because of its good reviews. They only offered us a weekend menu on the occasion of the cheese festival. The prawn scramble was good but the rice (for which they charge you €4 more) you could tell it was a last minute recycling to save the moment, just like the desserts, they made four servings with two. The waiters (although friendly) are clueless and listless. They constantly made mistakes by leaving the plates on other diners' tables, you had to ask them for the drink and bread, they left all the tables uncleared and the time between courses was excessive. I wouldn't recommend it

Estimada Mónica, Antes de nada muchas gracias por tu comentario. Nos hubiera gustado leer otro tipo de comentario, pero no vamos a negar que es un comentario objetivo basado en su propia experiencia real. El fin de semana pasado fué un fin de semana duro, de lleno diario, y ustedes fueron la última mesa que atendimos de todos los días de apertura, en un fin de semana festivo donde a Arzúa vinieron 25000 visitantes a la Festa do Queixo (en una localidad de menos de 6000 habitantes censados)... no vamos a echar balones fuera, pero si..., nos quedamos sin comida, no esperábamos tener que atender tal avalancha de clientes y al estar en el fin de semana de apertura, con personal nuevo contratado, no estuvimos todo lo bien organizados que acostumbramos a trabajar. Estuvimos intentando contactarla en varias ocasiones para que ustedes no se tuvieran que quedar con este mal sabor de boca y nos dieran una segunda oportunidad para demostrarles que sí podríamos llegar a ser un restaurante que cubriera sus expectativas, pero no conseguimos que nos atendieran. En fin, que lamentamos no haber llegado a impresionarles y que esperamos, ilusionados, a poder recibirles nuevamente y atenderles como merecen. Que disfruten de un buen día.

They served us badly, 50 minutes for the appetizer, some very strong chorizos, the broth was not bad but with how long it took... the seconds were good but we expected more. They had a mess at all the tables, they brought dessert to one without having served the seconds... and they wanted to charge us for removing the desserts and replacing them with a cake, exclusively. The table next to us was charged for a glass of wine, but the house wine included the entire bottle on the menu… a lot of nonsense and nonsense. It took us two hours to have dinner. The thing about them bringing you to Arzua is a lie, the people next door asked for the service and when there wasn't any, they went with the cook! Well, you can have a bad day, but how bad!?

Se puede valorar negativamente, pero ¿tanto? Su valoración es de un 1, sin embargo... - No se dejaron nada de la comida por lo que entendemos que tan mal no comieron, tampoco nos dijeron nada estando disfrutando de la cena por lo que hubiera sabido ideal saber que no estaban siendo atendidos como esperaban antes de que se fueran. - El servicio de traslado existe, igual se les dijeron que esperasen, y si no lo había sería porque no estaría operativo el servicio de taxis (que depende del ayuntamiento)... aun así, hasta nuestro propio cocinero estuvo haciendo traslados. - La comida a la carta no lleva incluida la bebida, por lo que si piden una copa, se les cobra aparte (como en todas partes). El menú con bebidas no lleva limitación de bebidas, la próxima vez que venga puede venir, disfrutar del menú y disfrutar bebiendo el vino que quiera. ... aun a pesar de que todas estas cosas sin sentido, para la mayoría de nuestros clientes si que tienen sentido, le agradecemos que hayan venido y tal y como les hemos dicho al principio... el sinsentido es aportar una valoración negativa y poco constructiva. Un saludo.

Had the pleasure of dining in this wonderful restaurant. From the booking experience through to the service, superb food, fine wine the experience was top class. A beautiful setting just a short taxi ride out from town and you arrive in this charming setting. This is a gem of a restaurant where all the team are clearly proud of their offering and rightly so. We had a fantastic meal and to top it off they provided us with taxis back to our hotel. Highly recommend it - you can also stay which looked like a lovely option. If you are on the Camino treat yourself to a visit / stay you will not be disappointed

Beautiful place. Excellent treatment. We made a reservation at the restaurant and they picked us up by car at the hotel. The gastronomic experience of 10. The Galician broth and cod not to be forgotten. A magnificent place that is undoubtedly a gastronomic reference in the area. Thank you for feeding us so well!!!!!
