Ajoarriero used to be one of Ernest Hemingway's favorite dishes while he lived in Pamplona. It is a dish of bacalao (dried cod fish) that is mixed with tomatoes, garlic, potatoes and peppers. Crêpes de atún con espárragos is tuna salad in a crepe with white asparagus tips stuffed in. A beautiful and very filling pinxto. For a spicy tapa we had anchoa rellena de fritada which has spicy green peppers on top of filet of anchovie. As you sit outside on the street where the bulls run during the festival of San Fermin, you can drink your beer or wine and imagine what it may be like to be with Hemingway, since nothing has changed in the neighborhood since before that era.

If the Bravas are taking a while to come, she'll usually give you some manzanilla olives. I ask for un poco mas picante (more spice) on the bravas.

It was an outstanding and Substantial small plate for just €3.20! I also ordered the daily menu. The Timbal of vegetables was great, and one of the highlights was very good romanesco sauce. I didn't love the pork cheeks however. The menu came with a bottle of wine! There were just two of us! Choice of red, white, or rose, and the rose was fantastic. They also brought a pitcher of water. And the menu was just €14.60. I would definitely return and highly recommend.

Came back after three years. And the good news first: It's still absolutely amazing!…read more This restaurant is really the King of Tapas. Besides tapas you can get whole meals as well as raciones of course. There are tables inside, some outside as well. But without reservation they are mostly taken. Wait for one to clear....or do what most do: Take your food and drinks across the street. There's a nice Promenade where you can sit anywhere on the wall. We did exactly that. Got some tapas with crab meat, with jamon & foie gras, with tuna & anchovies, pulpo & potatoes, salmon & sardines, smoked fish, shrimp and of course our favorite: Foie Gras with apple sauce! Also some raciones: crab (in shell) and fried calamari. They've got a good selection of wines for all budgets. Muga is always a good and safe choice. Food here is really excellent. Great combinations, freshly made, high quality products. And for really fair prices. It takes a bit time and patience to order at the bar inside, because it's mostly very busy. But that's understandable and well worth your time. It was and still is the best Tapas Bar we know. Highly recommended - and we will definitely be back!
