Don Gaiferos
Old-fashioned and proud of it, this traditional restaurant next to the Church of Santa María Salomé emphasizes seafood, which arrives by truck from the lonja at A Coruña. Good starters include a plate of raw cockles or anchovies with giant capers. The fare is straightforward and simple—roasted hake with potatoes, peas, and, this being Santiago, a few scallops (symbol of Santiago). The beef and veal dishes are also quite good and among the least expensive. The almond tart is the star of the dessert menu.
