Zebu — Restaurant in Vigo

Ate there today given all the great reviews. Food wasn’t very good, not very flavorful, plus the fish and meat was undercooked. Also their shrimp tasted like ammonia. They did remove it from our bill as I asked them to taste it. We didn’t tell them about the fish though. There was also a funny smell coming from the kitchen. After lunch some of our group got an upset stomach. Turns out shrimp was likely rotten. “If shrimp tastes like ammonia, it's usually a sign that it has gone bad; the ammonia-like smell and taste is a result of bacterial breakdown of the shrimp's proteins, which occurs when it's not fresh and has been stored improperly, indicating you should not eat it.” Very disappointed and also scared about this...

Discovering Zebù quickly turned into one of the highlights of the day.

This restaurant offers a mix of dishes of tradition, twisted with some high cuisine practices. I've tried the meat for two, served with the grill on the table to cook every bite to your preference.

Selection of wine was very long with more than 100 wines to choose from, but it became easy to choose the right one with the assistance of the staff.

In fact, the service is that thing that made the difference, with attention to detail, promptness and a very natural attitude.

Price tag is within the boundaries of the cost of a unique meal, making it not recommended for all the budgets on a day by day, but surely worth it on those...

We ordered a chuleton, carpaccio of octopus and as sides potato and grilled vegetables. The carpaccio was excellent and the flavors are perfectly balanced, it is well worth it to try it and savour it. The meat was great and it comes with a hot plate where you decide how done you want it. However a good chunk of it was made of fat, which was left aside. For drinks we had 4 glasses of wine and two sodas for a bill of around 130 euro, all in all its a good experience...
