# O Eirado da Leña Restaurant en Pontevedra · Combarro and Pontevedra Fuente: https://www.geocalia.com/en/spain/galicia/combarro-and-pontevedra/where-to-eat/o-eirado-da-lena · Revisado: 2026-11-13 - Precio: €€€€ Six tables on Praza da Leña: the home of Iñaki Bretal, Pontevedra's first Michelin star, with two tasting menus and more than 400 wines. Closed on Tuesdays. Six tables opposite the old museum O Eirado da Leña is at number 3 on Praza da Leña, the small square of arcades and a cruceiro in Pontevedra's old town, opposite the old entrance of the museum. Inside there is a dining room with six tables and a private room: it is a small house, with stone walls, and that decides almost everything else. With so few tables, you cannot eat without a reservation. It was opened by Iñaki Bretal in 2003 with two partners who left in 2012 to set up O Balado, in Boqueixón. Bretal, born in the Basque Country to a Galician family, the son of a ship's captain, trained at the Centro Superior de Hostelería de Galicia. He received a Repsol Sun in 2019 and in 2020 the first Michelin star the city had, which the Michelin Guide still gives in 2026. His motto fits in three repeated words: product, product and product. Curricán or Palangre The cooking is offered in two menus that change with the market and the season, and which differ in the number of dishes. The Curricán gathers the house's classic dishes; the Palangre is the longer one and shows the more creative side of the kitchen. The website does not publish prices or the number of courses: ask when you book, because it is a star-level table and the wine adds up. If anyone at the table has an allergy or a diet, say so then. The cellar has over 400 references and changes often. It has plenty of Galician wine from small producers and a selection from the rest of Spain and beyond. With Rías Baixas Albariño twenty minutes away, it is a good chance to take advice. Lunch six days, dinner Friday and Saturday According to its website, it opens at midday from 13:00 to 16:00 every day except Tuesday, and in the evening only on Friday and Saturday, from 21:00 to 23:30. On Sunday, therefore, you can have lunch but not dinner. You book on its website, on 986 860 225 or at reservas@oeirado.com. They also sell gift menus. Getting to Praza da Leña Pontevedra's old town is pedestrianised. Leave the car in one of the car parks on the edge and walk in: Praza da Leña is five minutes from Praza da Ferrería. Two streets away is the Pontevedra Museum, best seen before lunch, and the Santo Domingo ruins. If you want something more informal in the same area, Trasmallo is on Rúa Figueroa, a few steps away. Qué pedir: the Curricán menu if it is your first time; the long Palangre if you are not in a hurry ## Practical details - Address: Praza da Leña, 3, 36002 Pontevedra, Pontevedra - Phone: +34 986 860 225 - Email: reservas@oeirado.com - Opening hours: Mon 13:00–16:00; Tue closed; Wed y Thu 13:00–16:00; Fri y Sat 13:00–16:00 y 21:00–23:30; Sun 13:00–16:00 - Closed on Tuesdays; dinners only on Friday and Saturday - Cuisine: contemporary Galician - Bookings: https://oeirado.com/reservas/ - Details checked on 13 November 2026. ## Cómo llegar y contacto - Web: https://oeirado.com/ - Coordenadas: 42.43264, -8.64341 ## Cerca de aquí - [Trasmallo](https://www.geocalia.com/en/spain/galicia/combarro-and-pontevedra/where-to-eat/trasmallo), a 14 m - [Os Maristas](https://www.geocalia.com/en/spain/galicia/combarro-and-pontevedra/where-to-eat/os-maristas), a 45 m - [Pontevedra Museum, Castelao building](https://www.geocalia.com/en/spain/galicia/combarro-and-pontevedra/things-to-do/pontevedra-museum), a 149 m - [Guided Walk Around Pontevedra's Old Town with Turismo de Pontevedra](https://www.geocalia.com/en/spain/galicia/combarro-and-pontevedra/things-to-do/pontevedra-old-town-guided-walk), a 259 m - [Parador de Pontevedra, Casa do Barón](https://www.geocalia.com/en/spain/galicia/combarro-and-pontevedra/where-to-stay/pontevedra-parador), a 265 m - [Santo Domingo ruins in Pontevedra](https://www.geocalia.com/en/spain/galicia/combarro-and-pontevedra/things-to-do/santo-domingo-ruins), a 349 m - [Monastery of San Xoán de Poio](https://www.geocalia.com/en/spain/galicia/combarro-and-pontevedra/things-to-do/poio-monastery), a 3.8 km - [Poio Monastery Guesthouse](https://www.geocalia.com/en/spain/galicia/combarro-and-pontevedra/where-to-stay/poio-monastery-guesthouse), a 3.9 km ## Consejos ### Book before you plan the trip Six tables fill up quickly, especially on Fridays and Saturdays, the only evenings. ### Combine with the museum You eat opposite its old entrance: do the visit in the morning and sit down at one. ## Preguntas frecuentes ### Can you have dinner at O Eirado on a Sunday?
