About La Zarzamora
La Zarzamora has earned its rank as Bueu's fifth-most-talked-about restaurant by refusing the seafood-platter shortcut. Reviewers consistently praise the kitchen's willingness to layer flavour—puerros with hazelnut sauce, huevos rotos with langostinos, crêpes de pulpo with béchamel and San Simón cheese—and the homemade tarta de queso appears in nearly every glowing account. The space is deliberately small and welcoming, with terraced seating that invites lingering. Service moves fast without cutting corners; staff like Carlos and Daniel are named by name in reviews, a sign of genuine attentiveness. Wine and beer lists punch above their weight for the price point. Mediterranean cooking here means generosity, care, and the kind of place where you arrive hungry and leave planning your next visit.
La Zarzamora is one of those places where the dessert menu is not an afterthought — a detail regulars tend to mention first.
What Stands Out
Homemade desserts
Tarta de queso casera al horno repeatedly cited as 'espectacular' and 'riquísima'; multiple reviews single it out as among the best they've tasted.
Seafood and egg dishes
Huevos rotos con langostinos, chipirones, ensalada con langostinos, and gyozas consistently praised as 'gloriosos' and 'exquisitos' across recent reviews.
Attentive, named staff
Camareros like Carlos and Daniel explicitly praised by name for amable, professional, and efficient service that enhances the dining experience.
What Customers Say
Comida e atendimento incríveis. Pedimos várias coisas e seria injusto escolher qual a melhor , pois estava tudo delicioso, feito com cuidado: croquete de chouriço, guiosas de lagostim, ovos rotos de lagostim, solomillo, regado com um belo vinho, tudo a conselho do Carlos que nos atendeu e orientou no pedido e fez da nossa refeição uma experiência única, que a sobremesa fechou com chave de ouro.
Los chipirones , la ensalada con langostinos y las gyozas ...todo muy bueno!
¿Qué tiene la Zarzamora? Si ya has pasado por las mariscadas a granel, las falsas zamburiñas y los arroces prefabricados, prueba este sitio de comidas diferentes y deliciosas. Para volver una y otra vez. Gracias por ser diferentes!
