D'Berto Seafood Restaurant

The aquarium on Avenida Teniente Domínguez

D'Berto is at Avenida Teniente Domínguez, 84, in the centre of O Grove, and you recognise it from the pavement: an aquarium with large specimens of shellfish presides over the place and can be seen from the street. Inside, a refrigerated display on view shows the day's fish and seafood, so you choose your piece before it goes into the kitchen. In 2014, Madrid Fusión gave it its award for best seafood and fish restaurant.

Big pieces and simple cooking

The house works with seafood and fish from the Galician coast, in season, and prides itself on seeking pieces of good size. The way of cooking them is deliberately simple: grilled, on the griddle, steamed or stewed, without sauces that hide the produce. The best thing is to go up to the display, see what has come in and let yourself be advised on the preparation.

The menu is in an image linked from its website and the page gives no prices in text; nor does it detail its set menus. Ask how much the piece weighs and costs before ordering it.

A cellar of several hundred wines

The cellar holds several hundred labels, with a Galician list that includes small wineries. If you don't know what to order with the seafood, ask about the Salnés albariños.

Opening hours and winter closure

From Sunday to Thursday it serves lunch only, with the kitchen open from 13:00 to 16:15; the place closes at 18:15. On Tuesday it doesn't open. On Friday and Saturday there are lunches, with the kitchen from 13:00 to 16:00, and dinners, from 20:00 to 21:45. The kitchen hours are what count: arrive before the kitchen closes if you want to eat.

It closes for holidays from 6 December 2026 to 15 February 2027. If you go in winter, check the dates.

Table by website, email or WhatsApp

Book on its website, at [email protected] or on 986 733 447; for enquiries it has a WhatsApp, 604 018 896. At weekends, and above all on Saturday evening, it is wise to do so in good time: they are the only two days with dinner.

Before you sit down

It is a few minutes' walk from the port and the boarding point of the mussel boat, so it fits after the trip on the ría. It is the other lunch option in the plan Mussel boat, Shell Chapel and thermal club, if you are looking for a produce-led seafood restaurant. If you prefer something with longer evening kitchen hours, Beiramar, on the port avenue, serves dinners until 23:00.
