Bar La Tita

Probably the most famous spot in Santiago. You get a small portion of tortilla (Spanish omelette) with the first drink, and it tastes really good. We also had octopus and scallops, which were great. Especially the scallops had an amazing garlic oil thin sauce. Long queues depending on the time you go, I'd recommend going at times when it tends to be quieter, like early in the afternoon. They get your name, and when a table is ready they shout your name so you can get your reservation.

La Tita is an absolute gem in Santiago. The service here is excellent, with attentive and friendly staff who make you feel right at home. The food is outstanding, especially the tortilla, which is next level - juicy and perfectly cooked. Be warned, the portions are huge, so come with an appetite! The atmosphere is welcoming and lively, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. Surprisingly, the toilets are exceptionally clean, which is always a plus. La Tita is a must-visit when you're in Santiago!

Worth the 1+ hour wait for a table for 6. We had our celebratory lunch here after having completed the Camino De Frances. We had a very small table but our super server, Gabriel made it work for us. He cleared as many dishes as he can to make space for our lunch orders. Food was so good- so worth the long wait. You will not be disappointed. A bit noisy- we were seated outside and there is construction being done on the next building. So you will hear loud construction noises which you won’t mind because the food is so good.

The restaurant doesn’t take reservations and is always crowded. We turned back after waiting a bit one evening and returned the next day around noon. It was still busy and we found the server was brusque and unfriendly. They offer free tortillas with every drink and these were wonderful. We subsequently ordered and enjoyed the scallops, croquettes and batatas bravas. Great food overall at reasonable prices but the service needs to improve.

One of my favorite breakfast restaurants in Santiago de Compostela. In special, "La Tita" breakfast is amazing and powerful in calories for the cold in the mornings. Service is very kind and you can experiment a local tipical bar restaurant.

The food was so delicious. The service was great. Staff members speak Spanish as well as English. When you order beer, it comes with a tapa de tortilla. I highly recommend trying the Tarts de Santiago. Can't wait to visit Bar la Tita again.

Nice tapas bar, the free tortilla with every drink is (in my h.o.) fab. I like scrambled eggs a bit runny, and this was that kind of consistency - although my partner thought the opposite. It's very touristy here of course, mostly because most of the tours finish around here and mention it in the tour. I liked it, the other food looked good, staff could be a little more welcoming.

Small not pretentious tapas bar, very tasty typical Galician food & good wine. With each drink we got some Spanish tortilla on the house.

Great cheap local spot. Their omelet was huge, cheap, and excellent. Our tour guide recommended this restaurant then when we came we saw a waitress from another restaurant hanging out here. We wanted some snacks but the omelet was so big that we end up skipping dinner. The free egg and bread that they served was almost a meal in itself. Friendly, informal servers who kid around and chat with you.

Amazing tortilla! We arrived in Santiago on a Monday night and couldn't believe how incredibly busy Hospidaje Bar La Tita was. It was packed full of students probably because of the free tapa of tortilla Española (Spanish potato omelette) that you get with every drink - €1 for a caña - about 250-300 ml of beer. We've eaten a lot of tortilla and the tortilla here is probably the best we ever eaten - it just melts in your mouth!! No one (except us) was eating anything else in this bar - we also had a salad and some croquetas which were nice but unremarkable, and some very good house made desserts.

I had planned on spending a few days in Santiago after the Camino and bookmarked La Tita after reading the reviews. Glad I did as it was exactly the local tapas place I was looking for. We came in a group of 6 and had a 10 min wait for a table which is a good sign as it was very popular with the locals. We got an outside table which was perfect for people watching. The service was a little slow but understandable given the number of tables our waiter was serving and how busy the place was. The staff were very pleasant. And the tapas did not disappoint. All the dishes were quite good and reasonably priced. It was a positive food experience and happy to recommend La Tita if in Santiago de Compostela and looking for tapas.

The Spainsh potato tortilla is quite good and abundant. The close proximity to the Basillica makes it a good option for an afternoon coffee and snack

5 stars for the tortilla / 0 for the service. Although their hours are posted as 9, I was brusquely told by the waiter with long curly grey hair that I could eat starting from 10. When I returned he made a big fuss about my covid vaccination pass, which has not presented a problem anywhere else in France or Spain, but it was apparently fine enough for me to be allowed service after his vague scolding. After I ate the indeed excellent and indeed very cheap tortilla I asked to buy another portion, and was told simply 'no', as I was when I subsequently asked for a glass of water. I was audibly and visibly mocked and insulted by this waiter to his coworkers behind the counter. I can only say the very good tortilla is only worth it if you have a thick skin for being treated like some kind of miscreant by such contemptuous staff.

First afternoon in Santiago. We came to La Tita following the recommendation of the hotel staff. We had cañas de cerveza con tortilla de papas (free appetizer with the drinks) that were delicious (so yellow and runny!) chicken cutlets (milanesas de pollo) wee also delicious. Our waiter, Ivan was very friendly. Highly recommended place for a quick bite.

Tortilla is a TAD salty, but I was spoiled and raised on Cordoba's tortilla and honestly it's still incredibly tasty and contrasts with a beer well - plus it's totally worth getting it for free with your caña. Pulpo de feira is also incredible, and prices are super reasonable - I'm a huge fan! I only wish I was in town longer so I could come back!!

Great food! The tortillas were amazing as well as the hamburgers!! My only complaint was that service was a bit slow (probably because they were super busy) but they were super friendly!
