About Restaurante Chouzo
Restaurante Chouzo sits as the #2-ranked venue in Bueu, a quiet fishing village on the Rías Baixas coast. Built on decades of consistency, it draws tourists and locals alike into a spacious, informal dining room where the kitchen's focus is unambiguous: pristine fish and shellfish from the ría, cooked simply and well. Reviewers consistently praise the pulpo (tender, perfectly cooked), caldeiradas and cazuelas de pescado (fish stews), fresh-caught white fish, and house-made empanadas. The daily menu—typically offering two starters, two mains, dessert, and coffee—delivers exceptional value; one recent visitor noted the quality of ingredients and homestyle technique evident in every plate. Staff are described as attentive, warm, and genuinely engaged; one regular remarked that the restaurant "always exceeds expectations" and maintains its standard year after year. The wine list is notably well-curated. Desserts—tarta de manzana, tarta de queso, house-made offerings—are consistently mentioned as highlights. Wheelchair accessibility, free street parking, and a bar with aperitifs round out a venue designed for comfort, not theatre.
Restaurante Chouzo is one of those places where the dessert menu is not an afterthought — a detail regulars tend to mention first.

Attentive, warm service

Un restaurante de los de toda la vida, como comer de domingo entre semana. Nos hemos sentido super agusto. La ración de pulpo es una auténtica maravilla y el punto de la carne genial. Precio super razonable para la calidad que se maneja.
Polbo e cazuela de rape espectaculares!
Se come genial y el trato del personal es muy agradable
