Casa Sampedro

We only stopped for drinks and some mussels al vapor, which were incredibly fresh and delicious. Lo al family runs this quaint bar. I saw some amazing dishes go by and wished we’d been hungrier. Natalia, our waitress, suggested some delicious wines, and we had a wonderful conversation. We’ll be back. Many thanks!

My family was vomiting all night after eating there. We ordered clams while out with my wife’s parents, and the moment the plate arrived there was an awful smell. At first we wondered if it was a wet dog that had peed nearby or rotten garbage, but the smell lingered. My father-in-law can’t smell and ate half the plate before we realized it was coming from the food. We told the young woman working there, but she didn’t pay attention. Other guests smelled the food and were disgusted too. The waiter said they served food all day without problems. I raised it again with the owner, who showed no interest in fixing anything and laughed at us. The doctors said we should have kept a sample so they could test what was in it. Terrible service and even worse food. It’s a disgrace that they have a licence to serve fish in a bad.

We tried to grab a quick lunch and ended up paying for bread we hadn’t eaten. One waiter took our order, then ten minutes later a waitress said only she could take food orders because the other waiter didn’t speak English. We’d ordered in Spanish. Hablo español! The manager shouted at us, and the whole thing was very unpleasant. I was shocked by the incident.

A lovely little tavern on the plaza. The seafood was amazing, and the staff were so nice, especially Nathalia, and her mother’s homemade desserts.
