PescaderíAs CoruñEsas RestauracióN

My experience with Pescaderías Coruñesas has been very negative. We order seafood every year on Christmas Eve because it's a special day, despite the high price, because we value the trust we had in them due to their quality and experience. The shock came when we saw how little seafood they sent us compared to other times we've bought from Sánchez Romero or the Potosí market. Out of curiosity, we weighed the seafood, and to our surprise, they had only sent half of it! We couldn't believe it. The previous year, we were also surprised by the small quantity, so this year we ordered more. I wish we had weighed it then! I've attached photos. We called them, and after five calls filled with justifications and more excuses, they finally replaced what was missing, but it was a hassle. Outrageous. A complete rip-off. If they did this to us, imagine how many other people they've done it to. The total cost was almost 400 euros. Never again.

It's a seafood jewelry store—the facilities, the service, and above all, the product. A luxury within everyone's reach. It's wonderful to go to the store and see those displays, but be warned, their home delivery service is impressive; the way they package everything and how easy it all is. Luxury within everyone's reach, with over 100 years of tradition. The best in Madrid.

The fishmonger's is impressive, both for the products and the shop itself. But the prices are equally impressive. I bought, among other things, red prawns, which is why I went there—half a dozen because my budget didn't stretch any further (140 euros per kilo). When I got home and cooked them halfway through, the heads and juices fell off, which is the best part. If you pay six euros per prawn, you expect each one to be perfect. Otherwise, I'd just buy striped prawns at any supermarket, which cost a sixth of the price. The rest of what I bought was tasty: white prawns, king prawns, and some frozen croquettes, which are relatively cheap, 6.5 euros for 15, and they're good.

Surprises in packaged orders Large anchovies for pickling at €16 The ones on top were large, but the ones on the bottom were only half fried. Bad practice, especially after spending over €400 on three items.
