Reviews Summary

Asador Katuzarra is praised for its hearty grilled meats, particularly the exceptional Chuleton, and its lively pintxos bar with unique offerings. Diners appreciate the high-quality ingredients and generous portions, as well as the stylish, informal ambiance. However, some patrons have noted issues with cutlery sharpness and inconsistent service, with one reviewer experiencing an unwelcoming interaction with a waitress.

"We ordered
fried squid raciones €14 for a large portion light batter , very fresh , excellent
Padron peppers raciones , €8 small portion, also very good
Fois Gras tapa €7.25 good but didn’t need the 2 sauces it was served with
Ham on toast tapa €4 , was ok
Red pepper ball shaped tapa from bar top - very heavy
Bottle of Albariño €22

Not our favourite Pintxos bar in Pamplona but still a solid choice

Great buzz. People eat, drink & move on. You should be able to get a seat after a short wait.

Busy efficient staff."

Vikki Barrett

"I had just arrived in Pamplona got right down to the business of walking and finding some lunch. Only wanted something light and Pintxos is perfect for the solo traveller.
Happened across this place and chose it because it was buzzing but not frantic and everyone was local.
Chose two yummy Gilda and a little dumpling kind of thing that had red pepper and beef filling - much like a croquette but in batter rather than crumbed. Both were delicious and did the trick for a quick bite to keep my strength up to keep walking."

JJ B

"Excellent Chuleton (bone in rib) restaurant and pintxos bar. Restaurant and grill opens 8:30p while the pintxos bar is open all afternoon.

Superb jamon and small bites to keep us busy until the grill was fired up. Good selection of wine and beer."
