Chiringuito Saborea Galicia - Foz

What a great local gem. We stayed here a few days in an appartement just across the street. This place had some good reviews and looked very inviting. It's a small Chiringuito sitting on a lawn, close to the ocean. There's a tent in case of bad weather and a good number of tables outside. Dogs allowed anywhere, which was great. There's a menu, but they got some daily specials, be sure to check on them and ask. Soda, beer and wine available. Staff and chef/owner here were great. Fast, friendly, helpful. The food is cooked freshly by order, portions are good sized and prices more than fair. They got some great galician specialties on the menu, seafood, as well as sandwiches and other items. We came here every night (it's open for lunch and then again for dinner). On these days we had Chorizo, Spanish Tortilla, Clams, Mussels, Tuna Panini, ham (Lacón a la gallega), and octopus (pulpo a la feria). Always a bottle of wine with. All together it did cost around 45 Euros. Good value for the location, the freshness of the ingredients and the quality. Chorizo was really flavourful and tender, Spanish Tortilla big and could feed a whole family. The mussels and clams were plenty and tasted like they just came out of the ocean. Great stuff. The most amazing items were the traditional galician dishes. The ham with potatoes (Lacón a la gallega) was fantastic. Great, tender and juicy piece of ham. On top of a good load of potatoes, some oil and paprika powder. A wonderful meal. Same goes for the divine octopus (pulpo a la feria). Same preperation as the ham. Octopus seems like an easy dish. But cook it to short, too long, too hot or cold...and it ends up chewy. This one here was cooked to perfection. So, this place here is a fantastic find. Great authentic food. Location, quality, staff. All full points. I miss this place and the good times we've had here.

With hardly any people on the terrace, we sat down waiting to be served. The waitresses going around there and no case. After half an hour we got up and left.
