Located in the historic centre of Santiago de Compostela, just a short distance from Praza do Obradoiro, Simpar is the result of the shared vision of Áxel Smyth and Claudia Merchán, two young chefs who have turned their experience – backed by various awards – into a project with a unique identity. Having worked in some of the best restaurants in the country, they have developed a precise, balanced and original cuisine, inspired by tradition while remaining contemporary. Reinterpreting classic recipes, emblematic dishes such as pescado a la gallega (Galician fish), la tarta de Santiago (cake) or i callos are subtly and skilfully reinvented, without ever losing their basic qualities.

    Teamwork is translated into a proposal that focuses strongly on seasonal produce, seeking to ensure that each ingredient reaches its maximum potential. Direct links with local suppliers guarantee exceptional quality that is reflected in each dish. They work with the best seafood, meats and fish, creating dishes of exceptional balance and authenticity.

    With just a few tables and a peaceful atmosphere, the restaurant is the perfect setting to enjoy such fine quality food. The ample wine cellar reflects the rich variety of Galicia and other regions, with a range of carefully selected labels.

    With Simpar, Smyth and Merchán have created a concept in which passion and innovative spirit are reflected in every detail, making the restaurant an ideal destination for diners seeking a contemporary culinary offering without losing sight of the roots of local Galician cuisine. Technique and imagination merge naturally, giving rise to an authentic and constantly evolving gastronomic experience.
