Auga

This restaurant is located on one of the breakwaters at the heart of Gijón’s marina in a delightful and unique waterfront setting. Guests will be pleasantly surprised by Auga’s bright, elegant feel, featuring a classic-cum-contemporary dining room with a predominance of wood, and a superb terrace overlooking the sea where you would like time to stand still! The cuisine here varies depending on market availability and is built around the creativity of Gonzalo Pañeda, a highly experienced chef who demonstrates consummate skill in his dishes along with a deep-seated respect for his ingredients and for the traditions of Asturias, which he has skilfully brought up to date. Dishes we particularly enjoyed include the delightfully creamy scallop, roe and seaweed, and for dessert the intensely flavoured goat’s cheese soup with hazelnuts and honey.
