Taberna Zas

Rías Altas


You'll find some of the town's best eats in this small, wood-panelled bar, in a narrow street off Rúa Real, cooking up authentic Galician classics such as pulpo á feira, steamed cockles, percebes (goose barnacles), and raxo and zorza (both bite-sized chunks of marinated pork). The 'tapas' are really medias raciones.
