Just a bit of a service announcement for those looking for a good bite to eat here in A Coruña. Last night Colin, Emily and I found ourselves sitting outside Tapa Negra looking for a bit of food and wine. We were not disappointed. The food was simple yet flavourful and the wine list quite extensive. Since most of the dishes are topped with some sort of meat or fish, the chef even made an amazing veggie dish for Colin off menu. I recommend trying one of the Tostas, thick cuts of toasted bread topped with fish or meat and some sauce. The prices were a bit higher than surrounding restaurants but the quality and service made it worth it.
I had some duck in a cream sauce over toasted bread. I don’t have a picture of it but Emily had sliced cured beef similar to Iberico Ham over toasted bread with a high quality EVOO drizzled on top.
This was the dish the chef made for Colin. It was a tower of sautéed vegetables topped with goat cheese and caramelized onions with EVOO and a balsamic reduction drizzled on top.
I was quite impressed and the small dish sizes left room for some desert with the mandarin orange sorbet being my favorite. The complete meal left us completely satisfied.

It’s not the cheapest and you usually have to book in advance, but it’s one of my favorite places in town.
