Many thanks.Can recommend the O Semaforo in the Fisterra lighthouse. Not cheap, but imho worth the price. Also a very pretty location. I think they also offer rooms.
If you want something even fancier, the Terra at the edge of the city has a 1-Star rating from a certain tire manufacturer... have not been there, but the pictures and reviews look good.
In the harbour... it had a bit of tourist trap vibe to me. Eaten there twice, was good, but it felt a bit weird. Cant really explain.
I think in Muxia i was also in O Porto. Been 5 years now, what i recall i liked the food, but it was the classical galician seafood. Not sure i would argue the "ordinary" remark.
Aforementioned tire manufacturer also seems to have some ideas for Muxia if you want to look for something more upmarket.
Totally agree. Another favorite is A Lonxa d’Alvaro. It’s a white tablecloth place, excellent sea food. So as between A Furna and A Lonxa, I would say if you want fancier setting go to A Lonxa, if you want more casual, go to A Furna. (though I wear pilgrim clothes to both and never feel bad).In Muxia A Furna is fabulous
I confess I went to Terra for late lunch after arriving Fisterra in May 2023 - I had had several disgusting meals on the walk after leaving Santiago and felt I wanted to celebrate with a special meal after 40 days of walking. (In Cee, I just threw in the towel and ate some beef jerky for dinner, so I was definitely ready for something better). It was maybe one of the best meals I had in Spain, maybe the best clams I've ever eaten. My recollection is that, including a glass of wine and coffee after, it was less than $100, pricey but maybe the least expensive restaurant recommended by that certain tire company that I have visited. The view is also spectacular. I arrived late, walking the 30-40 minutes there from center of Fisterre, in my pilgrim clothes; there was only one other table occupied, the service was impeccable, I just sat there savoring each bite, savoring the end of my Camino, while looking out over the valley to the sea. I thought it was worth it, but I'm used to NYC prices and this likely would not fit in an El Cheapo budget.Can recommend the O Semaforo in the Fisterra lighthouse.

I just ate twice at Taberna do Carrexo in Fisterra. Others also showed up two days in a rowMy next Camino is with my dearly beloved.
We are doing a bit of a hybrid Camino, with our last walk of three, being Muxia-Fisterra-Santiago.
The earlier routes we are walking this time will have limited accomodation and meal options at times.
And it will include a 'first' for Pat. Communal sleeping!
So we have come to a 'deal', in that when we are walking back from Muxia, we'll seek out some really nice meals.
We'll skimp on accommodation costs this time, and splurge a bit on food.
Pat loves Seafood in particular. But any really nice meals will go down well...
So I'm seeking some restaurant recommendations in particular for Muxia, Lires and Fisterra, but would love to hear about any really nice places to eat on the way back to Santigo.
Personally I've not had any great meals in Muxia yet.
Last time I ended up at Bar O Porto, which was fairly 'ordinary'.
But I haven't tried the more upmarket places.
Not that great food needs to be only avaialle in upmarket places of course...
Lires I walked through without stopping, so no ideas there.
Fisterra seemed to have lots of places around the harbour, but it was hard to pick which ones were really good.
Any to recommend?
For what it's worth, I found a great fish and seafood place in Corcubion. Restaurante San Martín.
Any thoughts on great food on this route, would be most appreciated
At Fisterra can recommend Don Percebe, family run excellent seafood restaurant.My next Camino is with my dearly beloved.

I second A Braña. Great food, great atmosphere.I had dinner in Lires at A Braña Restaurante & Bar. I enjoyed my meal so much that I returned the next morning for breakfast.
Read the reviews - they are overwhelming good.

Here at Liresca was the best food I had on the Camino! The owners were so accommodating & friendly. The rooms were spotless & comfortable. I would go out of my way to stop here again if I ever get the chance!Stayed at o Semiforo single room size of a shoe box was £80 but had everything i needed except space!
Food was OK but not amazing!
Stayed here in Lires one of my favorites on the way from Leon spotless great roometc.
The food was good much better than i had in Muxia or Fisterra!

As Eiras Lires in Lires - it is a superb restaurant. My friend and I were treated to a Michelin-style dinner, introduced to Orujo which warms the bones on a cold, rainy evening; then feasted on the most glorious steamed mussels, also grilled scallops, soup, a fabulous dessert and all washed down with a Ribeiro Finca Teira.My next Camino is with my dearly beloved.

Yes, my friend and I loved A Lonxa d'Alvaro we enjoyed lunch there as the rain was coming down furiously and we wanted to subside. We were not sorry, but it was busy for the same reason we stopped to have lunch.Totally agree. Another favorite is A Lonxa d’Alvaro. It’s a white tablecloth place, excellent sea food. So as between A Furna and A Lonxa, I would say if you want fancier setting go to A Lonxa, if you want more casual, go to A Furna. (though I wear pilgrim clothes to both and never feel bad).
A Lonxa is still a family run place, though they have a lot of employees too. I saw the son come in after school with his pack on and sit down in a corner table to start his homework, and the grandma came in a while later (with another younger child) and took them both out. Very nice family atmosphere in spite of the white tablecloths and stemware!
