Interior of a traditional Galician restaurant in Las Palmas with typical dishes.

The restaurant Rías Bajas, a landmark in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria since 1985, celebrates its long trajectory by offering the essence of Galician gastronomy with top-quality products.

With over thirty years of history, Rías Bajas has established itself as an institution in the Gran Canarian capital, standing out for its careful selection of Galician products and their preparation, always respecting the rhythm of each season. Its dishes transport diners to northern Spain, offering an authentic culinary experience.
The menu features traditional dishes, stews, unbeatable fish, meats, and seafood, where the product is the true protagonist. The wine cellar, with enviable selections, complements a gastronomic offering enjoyed both in its cozy private dining rooms and on its lively terrace.
Among its most notable offerings is the Galician empanada, a classic with a golden, crispy crust and a juicy tomato and sofrito filling. The pulpo a la gallega (Galician-style octopus), tender and flavorful, is served with boiled potatoes, paprika, and a drizzle of olive oil, reflecting the intense marine flavor of the north.
The gratinéed scallops (zamburiñas), cooked with a mild seafood base and a creamy gratin, retain all their juiciness. The grilled turbot (rodaballo), smooth and creamy, maintains the essence of fresh fish with a slight toasted touch. To finish, the Galician filloas, light and creamy crepes, wrap the custard and can be accompanied by chocolate sauce.
