Asador Gonzaba Santiago de Compostela — Restaurant in Santiago de Compostela

An unusual steak house experience. A ‘cow’ steak with one price, and no guidance on cuts like fillet, sirloin, rib eye or tee bone was not what we expected. I like my steak rare, while my wife likes medium, so sharing a 'cow' steak, the only option offered to us, was less than optimal. Price was OK, and the quality of the meat was good, but just not suitable if in a couple liking different cuts cooked differently. Also, we were at the earliest sitting on a saturday evening, and one of the desert options, a tiramisu, was not available which was bizarre. Not a special meal, which is what we were hoping for having just completed the camino. venue and service really good, but lack of choice on steaks very disappointing. plenty of better, tastier and cheaper food options in santiago. you will be disappointed if you normally frequent steak houses elsewhere in other...

During our stay in Santiago, my husband and I planned to go to Asador Gonzaba to have some delicious meat. The food at this restaurant was genuinely good, but unfortunately, the experience was overshadowed by disappointing service and long wait times. Compared to so many other places in Santiago, this one left us with no positive or memorable feelings. The staff’s attention was noticeably uneven, with some guests receiving significantly more focus than others, which felt disrespectful. While the dishes were well-prepared, the lack of attentiveness and warmth in the service took away from the enjoyment of the meal. Sadly, this is the only place in Santiago we don’t...

🔥 Una experiencia en Asador Gonzaba que dejó mucho que desear 🔥

Acabo de visitar Asador Gonzaba y la verdad es que, aunque la comida tenía potencial, me encontré con varios problemas que arruinaron la experiencia. Pedí un chuletón de vaca que estaba delicioso, pero el acompañamiento de vegetales llegó 10 minutos después y ¡qué decepción! Estaban ácidos y llevaban patata, algo que nadie me advirtió. Y la carne... ¡te la sirven sin guarnición y tienes que pagarla aparte! 🤯

Pero eso no fue todo. El agua era de "km cero", o sea, filtrada, y nos cobraron por ella sin habernos avisado. Me parece una muy mala praxis pagar por agua filtrada en Galicia sin que te lo mencionen.

Y, para colmo, el plato de mi pareja llegó al final de la comida. ¿En serio? ¿Cómo puede ser? 🤦‍♂️

En resumen, aunque algunos platos estaban bien, la falta de atención al cliente y los detalles que deberían haber mencionado nos dejaron con un mal sabor de boca.

🔥 A disappointing experience at Asador Gonzaba 🔥

I just visited Asador Gonzaba and while the food had potential, several issues completely ruined the experience. I ordered a beef ribeye which was delicious, but the side of vegetables arrived 10 minutes later, and what a disappointment! They were too acidic and included potatoes, something no one warned me about. And the meat... they serve it without any sides, and you have to pay extra for them! 🤯

But that's not all. The water was "locally filtered," and we were charged for it without any prior notice. In Galicia, having to pay for filtered water without being informed is just bad practice.

To top it all off, my partner’s dish arrived at the end of the meal. Seriously? How does that even happen? 🤦‍♂️

In summary, while some dishes were fine, the lack of customer attention and details that should have been mentioned left us with a bad taste...
