And just like all the pixtos bars here, seats are for larger portions or set menus and not pixtos. They are known for their suckling pig. Their skin is so crispy and their meat is nice and juicy. Beef cheek is also a must try! We also got the foie gras which was really good. Razor clams was also delicious. Octopus was also a hit, crispy with soft interior. Kids loved the entrecôte. Risotto was good, but wasn't my favorite. Octopus was nice and tender. We ended up going twice here, food is delicious! Service was excellent too, Alejandro always asked if we needed anything and super friendly with our kids too.

Super busy tapas joint so expect to be jostled and squeezed as you wait and eat. The servers do a…read moregood job moving people through. All hot (temperature) and freshly cooked (tapas caliente). You won't see tapas on display here. We had the grilled Galician octopus - I believe it's actually the best I've eaten anywhere and for a great price. Wine pour was small (and the other half didn't review the bill so we were over-charged for one) but the experience was worth it. Casual and packed. Your luck is really good if you're able to score an outside table!

The food here was more expensive thsn your average tapas ... but out of 5 things we ordered, only one was somewhat edible (tacos) ... but nothing we couldn't find at a taco stand in Los Angeles for cheaper. All the others were bland, chewy or just a sloppy mess. The staff were all pretty much aloof and when they did come around, were disintetested and snippy. We noticed that the customers next to us pretty much left most of their food after a few bites and agreed with us their food was dissapointing. We only had 2 nights in San Sebastian, so we really regretted wasting a meal here. Maybe our experience wasn't indicative of normal but it was the worst tapas we had in Spain. The hair we found in one of our dishes after the first bite was gross enough ... but the waiter shrugging and removing the dish without bringing another or removing it from the bill was also not a good move. There are much better spots in San Sebastian ... we feel that we wasted a meal here ... not to mention money.

With so much amazing food in San Sebastian, not every place can come out as a top contender, and…read moresadly Mendaur fell short for us. Can't remember if this one was recommended to us or if we just happened to come in, either way we went in with an open mind and no menu items in mind. We sat at the bar here, and nice break from standing in so many of the other pintxo bars. They had a fairly big menu so we asked the bartender what was the best and ordered that. Went with the truffle mushroom risotto, calamari that was served taco style on a tortilla and with some sauce and red onions, and the pork belly. Everything tasted pretty standard, it wasn't bad at all, but it wasn't at the same level as some of the other bites we had been eating. It seems like a lot of the pintxos here were a little more unique and artistic than some of the other bars. Based on the other reviews, I think it definitely has potential to be a great meal if you order the right thing.

I really appreciate the fact that you get to grab the pintxos you want and that you don't have to order from anyone. These pintxos were delicious and a little more complex than the average ones you get at a bar. I highly recommend eating pintxos here if you're not used to this classic food. They have so many options and the verdejo wine I had was great!

If you order a beer you get a large one, a pint. This is very unusual for Spain. I would highly recommend this place if you're looking for a local out-of-the-way place. It is a grill and specializes in various kinds of meats, but still has lots of varietiy to offer.
