Reviews Summary
Bar Komercio offers a prime location and generally fresh, delicious food at reasonable prices, with particularly good meats and tapas like patatas bravas. However, service can be inconsistent, ranging from excellent to slow and inattentive, with some diners experiencing order mix-ups. While seafood receives mixed reviews, other dishes are generally well-received. The atmosphere is pleasant, especially with patio seating, but be prepared for potential service delays.
"Patatas bravas, sangria, and local cheeses plate all delicious. Our second visit here. It pays to speak Spanish. Menu is with QR code."

"Very nice sidewalk eating in Vigo! I think the staff were very busy as this was one of the few places open on Monday. Our server was patient with our broken Spanish and use of the Internet to describe our requests. Some items on the menu were unavailable, but easily substituted with others that were delicious and well prepared. I had the local Gallician octopus and enjoyed that. The croquettes were also great and the calamari was fantastic!"
Patrick Ayres
"They did not had octopus, which is the most famous dish to eat in Vigo, so I would ask first next time before sitting.
Staff is very great and the place is very clean. They did get lost with people so I had to go and look and pay for my bill by myself. But I would go again."
