Casa de Tapas Cañota, a sister venue to the acclaimed Rías de Galicia, has built a devoted following in el Poble Sec for Galician-leaning seafood tapas served in a lively, informal dining room.

Background

About Cañota

The Story

Casa de Tapas Cañota sits on Carrer de Lleida in el Poble Sec, just off Avinguda del Paral·lel. It is part of the same family as the Galicia-focused Rías de Galicia group, and channels that seafood expertise into a more informal, tapas-driven format.

The Cuisine

The kitchen serves a broad Spanish tapas menu with a Galician accent: Cantabric anchovies, Andalusian-style fried squid, Galician octopus, Iberian ham, patatas bravas and croquettes alongside paellas, creamy rice with oxtail, grilled meats and classic desserts such as crema catalana.

The Team

Casa de Tapas Cañota is operated by Grup Iglesias, the Galician-rooted hospitality group behind Rías de Galicia and Rías KRU. The house works with long-standing Spanish producers including Luis Cañas, Codorníu and Estrella Damm.
