    Tour molto divertente, è un bel modo per fare nuove amicizie soprattutto se si è arrivati da poco a Santiago

    La meilleure façon de se faire de nouveaux amis et de manger des plats espagnols typiques

  5. Marco Torrini –

    New flavours and very well organisation

  6. Ian Curtis –

    The empanada was outstandingly fresh, and the Tarta de Santiago had a perfect, rich almond texture. You can genuinely taste the quality of the locally sourced ingredients. Dropped one star only because I wanted a third drink option included, but the tapas themselves were flawless

  7. Douglas Higgins –

    Scrumptious

  8. Samantha Miller –

    What elevated this experience from a standard pub crawl was the contextual depth provided by our hosts. Understanding the cultural lineage behind the Raxo and the architectural history of the old-fashioned tavern made each bite far more meaningful. A brilliant, intellectually engaging gastronomic event.

  9. Becky Lynch –

    Met the most incredible fellow travelers here! Sharing a plate of Pimientos de Padrón—wondering who would get the spicy one—was the ultimate icebreaker. The atmosphere in that cozy Old Town bar was unmatched. Great food, great wine, and even better company
