Casa Aquilino - A Guarda

Inexpensive hidden gem of a restaurant with Galician homemade meals. Has free Wifi ask for password). Fast personal service. Has both choice menu and lunch menu meals. Lunch menus are EURO 7 to 9 with ample quantity, choices and drink, bread plus dessert. We have already eaten here twice in a week. With the normal dinner/lunch menu choice with two 3 course meals, several, 2 huge fresh orange juices, snacks, bread, drinks and coffee one may spend about EUR 30-35 with 2 persons. Foods were well spiced and juicy. We have tried schnitzels (just right thin/thickness), various fish dishes (cooked well, no raw parts), other meats. Far more tasty than in most local restaurants even the desserts like the exceptional flan. They come with fresh salad and fresh cut fries (the typical local softer way of preparing). Fresh crispy bread. Delicious addictive tortilla. The owner/cook, she is an excellent original cook. Good view of garden and river. Spacious set up (restaurant area is in back, in front is more cozy bar area and small supermarket that is always open). There is ample parking just next door and it is a few minutes walking down to the ferry to/from Caminha (Portugal).

We hadn't had breakfast before getting the ferry from Caminha. We found this spot just up the hill from the ferry landing spot (in opposite direction to the Camino sign). Got some life saving espressos and queso, jamon chorizo rolls into us in the bar. All very pleasant good service, good food and reasonably priced.

Espero que el cierre sea para bien. Pasamos muchas fiestas con vino blanco en los años 90 y tuvimos las mejores noches de nuestra juventud en este bar antes de Funchi. Nunca lo olvidaré. Un abrazo sincero para Aquilino y su esposa. ¡Buena salud, amigos! Luis de Amorín
