We walked the Camino and finally arrived at Muxia. Son de Mar invited us because of there huge seafood list. Beautiful was the octopus & shrimps in garlic. I like the shrimp tasting a little like ammonia.
The seafood is extremely fresh and delicious, the meat is exceptional. Service was friendly but zero time for sobramesa. We were rushed to finish - that is the only complaint. But the food is exceptional and very fairly priced .
Definitely worth checking out everything was delicious and fresh. Some of the best octopus I've had. And the grandmother cake oh my goodness so good. They got busy all at once in a service was still great
We arrived after a long walk to have a beer and ended up having a spectacular lunch. Staff was very friendly and steak was beyond belief.
Great restaurant, delicious food, carefully selected. Service was excellent, overall a lovely experience. The music in the restaurant was a variety of pop music, some authentic music would have sounded much nicer to accompany the meal. Gracias ☺️
