We walked past the restaurant twice before realising we were standing in front of it. The signboard wasn't very apparent, or maybe it didn't catch our attention standing amidst some unique boutiques.
having made a very last minute reservation, our table was only booked for us from 6-8pm. we went there at 6pm, and we were the first customer of the night.
We ordered the "entrees selection ($28) where you get a selection of entrees at smaller serving. here are the entrees.
pimientos de padrón ($9)
'Os Pimientos de Padrón, uns pican e outros non' - Galican for 'Padrón peppers, some are hot and some are not'.
The most famous produce of Padrón, which are small green peppers from the capsicum family. They are served fried with olive oil and salt. Most taste sweet and mild, though some are particularly hot and spicy.

wood grilled quail
Spread on a smear of parnsip and vanilla purée (!), upon which were heaped fresh figs, leaves, pomegranate seeds, the portions of quail and a curious little pastry cigar.
