Great food and nice service. Good prices too. My spicy calzone was perfect. Good variety for kids too. We ate outside and had to wait quite a while to have service during dinner.
We popped in for lunch and, after having spent 10 days eating only fish and seafood around Galicia, really fancied a pizza. Plus, there is a sign in the window offering gluten free pizzas (I have an allergy), so perfect! Sadly, it was a poor gluten free pizza. Obviously not made on site, it was thin and toppings sparse, and tasted very highly processed. Like something I'd get from a supermarket freezer. Given how unwell I was afterwards clearly no care was taken in cooking the gluten free pizza. Possibly it was contaminated in the kitchen during preparation/cooking. My husband's pizza (ordinary not GF) was enjoyable, a deep pan type which he said tastes a bit like a Pizza Hut pizza. Service was effective, not hugely friendly, but we didn't have to wait too long. We were sat in the outside glass house box on a sunny afternoon, with all windows closed, and it was like a goldfish bowl and a little uncomfortable. The bill was €28.90 for two pizzas, a beer and a diet coke. Compared to restaurant prices around Galicia and in A Coruna, this is expensive for what it is. There are many restaurants a short walk from here, I'd keep wandering and go somewhere else.
The restaurant is part of a chain, and I have eaten here several times. The restaurant has two entrances, one from the Plaza Maria Pita and the other is on the Marina Avenue. The service is excellent and I have to admit that it is always a joy to eat there. If you eat there in the early evening it is pleasant if quiet, They also have an external eating facility outside both entrances.
We chose this restaurant after quickly checking all of the other restaurants in the plaza. Initially we were ignored so we politely requested service which was still very slow to arrive. Then after waiting for about 20 minutes everything was concentrated on our table. Four or five wait staff ensures we had everything we needed. The food and beverage service was superb. The price was very reasonable. It was all worth waiting for and the staff certainly know their business.
Although the the food was adequate for a burger and pizza place the service was terrible, when we arrived the restaurant was empty, we were seated at a very nice table but then asked to move not once, but twice so they could accommodate larger groups. The waiter was particularly aloof. Try elsewhere unless you a desperate
