What to say! Currently my favourite restaurant in Bilbao. Every time I drop by for holidays (4-5…read moretimes a year as I'm originally from Bilbao) I go here. My recommendations: - tan tan men: they say it's spicy but not at all. Very similar to the Paitan but with some "spicy" mince meat. Extremely tasty and my go to. - Paitan: a more pure flavour to the broth and extremely tasty and with great body. I would recommend it any day it's just a tinny wee bit under the previous one. Something else I want to say is that while I have tried the chintan, and I'm not all that keen on it due to a more "fishy" and thin broth, it is still full of flavour

I was very happy to stumble upon this little ramen shop while wandering around the neighborhood. I…read morehad been craving something hot and soupy for days as a result of being a little homesick by now. The ramen really hit the spot, The shop exterior drew me in because it reminded of the storefronts in Japan. The interior space was small and intimate just as it would be in Japan. Menu is small making it rvery easy to make a choice. I decided on a ramen featuring a local favorite, the boquerones, which also came with a perfectly cooked soft boiled egg. The noodles had a perfect bite to them; not too doughy or soft. Broth was nice and clear with well balanced flavor. Staff was friendly and attentive. The waiter was happy to repeatedly pour my cider the Basque way which requires a lot of arm motion and coordination. Apparently, the cider has to hit the glass in order to reach maximum potential. This little spot was a refreshing break from the tourist crowds in Old Town, especially if you are craving some Asian flavors.

A very well documented menu. We are underneath a tree canopy with an orange tree. Cool space. The only bad thing was that we ordered one dish and they brought out something we did not order instead. It was ok. But we just rolled with it. There was a slight language barrier. I got the Thai Curry with Chicken and it was great. No line to get in either the night we were there.

It was so bland, there was no trace of curry flavor, coconut milk, ginger, lemongrass, lime, or anything. It was like a greasy flavorless broth that they attempted to thicken with flour. I asked for more flavor and you could tell the kind waiter felt terrible, but then it came back extremely overly salted and more greasy but still not a trace of Thai curry flavor (or resembling anything Asian at all).

I found out about Mao after a bit of poking around on the web, and decided to give it a go for dinner. The interior of Mao was impressive: a water water gurgled on one side of the room, a large hibachi grill stood in the corner of one dining room, and the decor was minimalistic and modern. The service was quick and professional. I started off with the miso soup--not hard to mess up, and this one did not disappoint. Later I moved on to some specialty rolls: Hot Philadelphia, Dragon and Kani. The latter two were the best: fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented, while the Hot Philadelphia was just ok. Later I ordered a plate of chicken teriyaki, which I was not impressed with. It was strips of dry chicken breast doused in a watery teriyaki sauce--I've had much, much better. Lastly, I had dessert: green tea ice cream, and fried chocolate-banana rolls. Both were delicious. Washed everything down with a nice glass of house red--excellent for 2.50 a glass! Overall, the ambience was great, service was good, and there was some nice sushi to be found.

I stopped by this place and the sushi and maki rolls hit the spot. First, it is not a 3 EU, it is more like 1 EU. I got 6 pieces of wonderful and 1 maki shrimp roll for 14eu. Not sure why this place is rated as 3EU. It is super affordable. Second, the fish was fresh and rice was well cooked. Lastly, the service was friendly and expedite. Will definitely come back to this place if I am in Bilbao and want something light.
