Bajamar

Gran Vía 78 Cuisines: Seafood

About

Bajamar, one of the best fish houses in Spain, is right in the heart of the city. Both fish and shellfish are flown in fresh daily, the prices depending on what the market charges. Lobster, king crab, prawns, and soft-shell crabs are all priced according to weight. There is a large array of reasonably priced dishes as well. The service is smooth and professional, and the menu is in English. For an appetizer order the half-dozen giant oysters or rover crayfish. The special seafood soup is a most satisfying meal in itself; the lobster bisque is also worth trying. Some of the noteworthy main courses include turbot Gallego style, seafood paella, and baby squid cooked in its ink. The simple desserts include the chef's custard.
