El De Alberto

Food was outstanding. We’ve been travelling around Galicia, Basque Country and to Madrid as well. This was one of the best meals we had; very deserving of its bib gourmand and better than some 1 Michelin star places we went to on the trip. Great value as well. Chef Alberto was warm and friendly (as were all of the staff) and he came out to check on us every now and then. Had a great conversation about his visit to our home country :) We had the tasting menu. The starting course featured tomato 3 ways, rehydrated, soup, grilled. There was a nice touch of acidity which awakens the palate. The cucumber concentrate with tuna was also very refreshing. There’s an eggplant dish that tasted so good- there’s a meaty texture and flavour to it that made me wonder if it’s really just eggplant. The wine recommendations were also absolutely spot on- went perfectly with the food. This place is definitely worth a visit and I would travel there again if I can!

We had a great experience lst night at El de Alberto. The restaurant was highly recommended and I understand why! Alberto is warm and friendly, and very involved with the guests and chatting with them in English and Spanish. The staff is cordial and attentive. The space is comfortable and intimate and even though it was a full house last night it never got too loud. The food was spectacular. There was so much variety and creativity in each dish, and the ingredients themselves were of a very high quality with clean, delicate flavors. We especially enjoyed the xurel and the merluza. The meal was artfully arranged, well paced and delightful. Wow, we really enjoyed the flavors and textures of the tasting menu. The food is top notch, the service is nice, and the prices are very affordable. I hope that we can return soon! Graciñas, Alberto!

The food is great, service is fast, place is cosy and Alberto comes to your table to check on you from time to time and he is a funny guy. Love our experience! What a great value too for a nice tasting menu. Drinks are also not expensive, well priced.

Just wow! The ingredients and the flavors were so fresh and tasty. The service was perfect, very fast and provided us with great recommendations. My favorite was the navajas and the secreto iberico. Definitely would return!

A high end restaurant that feels like family. Everything was delicious and the owner knew everyone or at least made everyone feel welcome. A very special place with the best green bean dish I have had in my life. It has been several weeks since I ate here and I still think about the green bean dish. The beet risotto was muy rico.

We visited this restaurant today, drawn by the many excellent reviews and eager to try some good Galician cuisine here in “A Coruña” And I have to say, the food was truly delicious: dishes with intense, authentic flavors, prepared with care and high-quality ingredients. We would gladly give the food 5 stars without hesitation. Unfortunately, however, the service did not meet our expectations. The waiter who served us spoke extremely fast, almost as if he were reading from a script, without offering any recommendations or personalized suggestions. And even though I mentioned that we would have appreciated his input, he kept talking mechanically, just listing the names of the dishes. The most disappointing moment came when I tried to ask about the desserts, but I was briefly distracted with my daughter. Still, he went on reciting the list without pausing or adjusting to the situación and then simply walked away. At that point, we decided not to have dessert there and went elsewhere instead. That said, we want to highlight that the waiter who brought us our drinks was very kind and professional, as was the owner, who was very courteous and open to feedback. In short: excellent food, but the overall experience was affected by impersonal and inattentive service.

We were welcomed by Alberto who introduced us to the tasting menu we were going to have. He offered to make changes if there was something in the menu we were not interested. His team of waiters are very attentive and explained each dish when bringing it to the table. The somelier came to offer us wine to pair it with the food. Overall great experience and all dishes were very tasty, well cooked and flavoursome. Definitely a place to come back.

Great place to enjoy a revamped traditional cuisine full of flavor. This place is exactly like this, traditional dishes with a modern touch, and enhanced flavors. For instance, we had ravioli, rib, braised ox tail and scallops. Pros: the mix of flavors is strong, they evolve in mouth and the feeling is super positive. Cons: sometimes some really good products are masked in their original textures and flavors. Anyway, a good value for money option in A Coruña 4.6 stars on my opinion
