Enxebre

The first attractive aspect of this restaurant, the Galician name of which translates as something that is pure, authentic and genuine, is that it is run by a young couple, chefs Marcos and Patricia, the former from Vigo itself, the latter from Toledo. This modern space, laid out on two floors and boasting a semi-open-view kitchen, also has a bar counter where guests can dine while watching the chefs hard at work. The contemporary inspired à la carte showcases plenty of technical prowess through signature tapas such as the “cocido stew doughnut” and Enxebre’s own version of a cockle empanada, and is complemented by an impressive tasting menu. Make sure you try the creamy cheesecake (which you can also order to take away).
