To start the meal, the queso y aguacate is a deliciously creamy cheese and guacamole open-faced sandwich, made with fresh crusty bread. For something more substantial, the albóndigas en salsa Española con tomate features a generous portion of beef meatballs in fresh tomato sauce, seasoned with fiery paprika. Sabio also excels at seafood; the pulpo a la gallega offers tender octopus cooked in olive oil, and is rich with paprika, lemon and smoky flavours. Another irresistible offering is the vieiras en salsa de cava (sea scallops with sparkling white wine sauce); the creamy, buttery sauce is so flavourful you’ll want to order more bread to sop it all up.
