"Traditional, produce-focused, basque cuisine at its best at this venerable place in San Sebastian’s old part that has definitely passed the test of time. Traditional decor and ambiance complemented by friendly service. They were very accommodating and we were able to pre-order angulas (elvers) while in season (winter), which were perfectly cooked to highlight their texture and delicate flavours."

Antonio Sanchez

"Everything was perfect for us!
First, since we went on a weekday in February for lunch, right when they open, we practially had "private dining", which in this restaurant already creates such an amazing atmosphere.
Second, the service staff is well educated in their craft and gives just the right amount of attention to the guests. This adds to the experience of being comfortably pampered while enjoying some great food.
We took the daily menu, with croquettes and jambon with bean pods as a starter. This perfectly set the stage for some smooth-tasting mains -- the cod in vizcaina souce and the beef cheeks. Both cooked to perfection, in taste and texture.
To finish our meal we took the cheese cake and the sheep's milk "yogurt". Again just perfect.
What a great start into a sunny spring-like afternoon in San Sebastian."

Mario J Aigner

"A friendly and charming restaurant serving traditional dishes that are typical of the region. The cheese for dessert was lovely when paired with some port. And the Gilda tuna / anchovies was very special - a great spin on a classic."
