Simpar

In this restaurant, fronting one of the city’s emblematic cobbled streets leading to its famous Praza das Praterías and cathedral, they are proud to say that Simpar’s daily menus are always built around ingredients sourced the same day from trusted suppliers, whose names they are also happy to share with guests. In the contemporary-style interior, featuring a spacious bar at the entrance, young local chefs Áxel Smyth and Claudi Merchán showcase their fresh and creative Galician-inspired cuisine with a touch of elegance in an à la carte service and seasonal Simpar set menu (to which you can add their famous tripe, recognised as the Best Tripe in the World 2024). Strong technique adds immensely to the dining experience. One of their signature dishes is Galician-style fish of the day, which changes with the seasons and is accompanied by mashed potatoes and a three-textured 'ajada' garlic sauce.
