About Restaurante Casa Vella
A family-run marisquería in Vigo centro where the seafood platter alone draws people back, but the full picture is better than that. The octopus, the chlamys varia and the razor clams are what locals keep ordering, and the arroz con bogavante has its own following. Rías Baixas and Ribeiro — the right match for what's on the plate, and the albariño gets mentioned by name often enough to order it without thinking. The room suits a couple's dinner or a table that wants to take its time. What tips it past the food is the service: one staff member, Jaime, is singled out by name for turning a good meal into something people write about weeks later. A place the locals return to, and mean it.
