Los montes de galicia: Galicia in neon blue, between land and sea, in the heart of Madrid

In the Salamanca district of Madrid, Los montes de galicia serves Galician cooking that runs from the sea to the mountains, alongside a very full wine list. Dineora designed, in Spanish, a night-blue website edged with neon, that puts the products in the foreground and leads straight to the menu, to ordering and to booking.

A Galician table in the Salamanca district

Los montes de galicia is a Galician restaurant in the Salamanca district of Madrid. Its menu is shared between the sea and the mountains: entrantes such as the pulpo a la gallega, the cecina croquettes or the cod fritters, a section called Del mar with turbot in romesco sauce or hake tacos in wheat beer tempura, a section called Del monte with the secreto ibérico or a wagyu burger, mariscos such as langoustines from Vinaroz a la plancha, then a homemade egg flan for dessert.

Two features give the place its character. Menus for groups, presented on large wooden boards, combine Iberian ham, homemade pâté, empanada, octopus or shrimp. And the wine list takes up seven sections on its own: Galician whites from the Rías Baixas, Ribeiro, Valdeorras or Monterrei appellations, reds from Rioja and Ribera del Duero, imported wines from Bordeaux and Alsace, and a few grands crus.

The challenge: telling Galicia, from the fish market to the wine cellar

The restaurant presents itself as a “cocina gallega contemporánea”: cooking of produce and roots, claimed in a present-day register. The website had to render both faces at once: the generosity of the seafood and the meats, and a polished, night-time aesthetic.

It also had to make a very extensive menu readable, in which the wine list counts almost as much as the cooking, and to leave everyone their own path: order, have it delivered or book.

An art direction of night blue and neon

The palette starts from a night blue that is almost black, crossed by the electric blue of a neon tube drawing a large arch around the dishes. The white of the name, the turquoise of the small capitals and, on the ordering page, the ruby pink of ornate frames light it up. The logo, a radiating white and blue emblem set in a circle, shines at the top of the screen.

The visuals bring land and sea together on the same table: a bright red crab, a seared beef fillet with grilled vegetables, whole fish on a silver platter, scallop shells gratinéed with herbs, a seafood salad with caviar and fish roe on a blue and white plate. Further on appear a night-time storefront with blue tiles, a bar and the logo sculpted in relief on a light wall.

The headings are written in a typeface drawn from the letters of the logo, a fine, highly contrasted roman, and small, widely spaced capitals carry the captions.

A home page framed like a shop window

The home page opens under the neon arch: the name of the restaurant, “Cocina gallega contemporánea”, then a handwritten sentence in blue, “Galicia en cada plato”. On either side, two columns of short captions set the tone: “Producto de Galicia”, “Pescados y mariscos de lonja”, “Cocina de mercado”, “Recetas con raíces” on the left; “Sabor auténtico”, “Tradición y vanguardia”, “Ambiente acogedor” on the right.

The crab, the beef and the fish then come down into the foreground, as far as the line: “Donde la tierra y el mar se encuentran”, where land and sea meet. At the top right, a Pedir button ringed with neon stays within reach.

An ordering page under a glowing shell

The ordering page, titled “Carta y pedidos”, plunges into an underwater decor: scrolls of electric blue feathers, touches of purple and pink, pearly shells and, in the center, a glowing scallop shell.

The dishes are arranged in cream cards with ruby pink frames, set with cabochons and topped with a shell. Each line shows the image of the dish, its name, its price and an add button; an arrow unfolds the composition. The wines are read with their appellation. A tab bar stays at the top of the screen, from the entrantes to the imported wines.

The cart, called “Carrito”, fills as you read the menu; you then choose pickup at the restaurant or delivery, with the option of paying online.

Booking under the azulejos

On a computer, the form opens in a window on a night-blue panel whose corners are decorated with blue and white tiles with golden foliage. The title “Reservas” is written in golden letters, the name of the restaurant in light blue just below. The cream fields, edged with gold, ask for the full name, phone, e-mail, date, time, number of guests and a particular request, before the “Reservación” button, decorated with an octopus tentacle and a shell.

On a smartphone, the decor changes: a panel ringed with pink neon in a bar with purple light, titled “Tu mesa te espera”, with the phone number, Instagram and address of the restaurant, an earthenware pitcher bearing its name, a glass of white wine and a plate of octopus at the foot of the fields.

On a smartphone, the arch stands upright

On a smartphone, the neon arch stretches in height: the name and the sentence “Galicia en cada plato” first, then the two columns of captions, then the crab, the beef, the fish and the seafood salad. Navigation moves down to the bottom of the screen, in a blue bar decorated with scrolls, with two icons: a house for the home page, a bag for the order.

The ordering page stacks its ruby pink cards across the full width, with the tabs at the top and the cart bar at the bottom, and the booking form moves to a single column.

A website prepared for local searches

The website, in Spanish, answers the searches made in Madrid: a Galician restaurant in Madrid or in the Salamanca district, a Salamanca restaurant and its menu, seafood, a secreto ibérico, a restaurant nearby, or simply the name of Los montes de galicia. Title, description, texts and structured data name the cooking, the district and the menu without ambiguity.

A detailed presentation page completes the home page, and the full menu, wine list included, is readable as text on the ordering page. No one can promise a place on Google: the work consists in giving search engines information that is accurate, structured and consistent.

A website for a Galician restaurant in Madrid’s Salamanca district

A Galician cuisine address does not have one menu, it has several: starters, seafood from the sea, meats from the mountain, shellfish, and a cellar of Galician whites, Rioja and Ribera del Duero as well stocked as the kitchen. A Galician restaurant website in Madrid has to carry that breadth, host group menus and bookings, and sell for takeaway or delivery.

  • A neighbourhood venue’s budget: no agency quote to describe more than two hundred dishes, and no commission on a pulpo a la gallega delivered.
  • Ready in a few minutes: even a menu this vast, from turbot to wines, is built from the restaurant’s name alone.
  • Blue night and neon: a near-black blue, an electric neon arch around the dishes, ruby frames on the order page, a white and blue crest.
  • Updated with no typing go-between: a delivery of langoustines or a bottle that changes is corrected by the restaurateur personally.
  • No agency, no marketplace: bookings, group menus, payments and deliveries come to the house.
  • From Madrid to Lausanne and Houston: the same software serves other big tables in several languages, which matters for visitors to the capital.

For a Galician restaurant in Madrid, that is a site as deep as its menu, keeping the sea, the mountain and the cellar within thumb’s reach.

The result: a Galician house in blue light

Los montes de galicia’s website takes a stand: Galicia told at night, under a blue neon, with the products of the sea and the land in the foreground. It keeps a very rich menu and wine list readable, and leaves ordering and booking one gesture away. A website that reflects the restaurant, with its menu, its orders and its bookings: that is what Dineora builds for every venue.
