We came here late night, on our last evening in Bilbao…read more Most kitchens close quite early in this area, and Ad Hoc was open at least an hour later than anyplace around. The place is clean and modern looking with a beautiful chalkboard and a friendly waiter who was happy to accommodate our late-night drunken and broken Spanish. We had delicious and piping hot croquettes with a creamy interior spiked with salty ham. Their anchovies were standard but really delicious. Finally, at the bartender's recommendation, we had some Morcilla (blood sausage) with a lovely creamy puree. There is so much amazing food in Bilbao, it's sometimes hard to choose where to go to get your fix. In this case, Ad Hoc's unusually extended hours made the decision for us and i'm really happy they did!!

My gin-based home away from home…read more Me and a coworker rolled into Abadia one night, without much of a clue what we were in for. The bartender kindly threw us together a gin and tonic and changed my entire Bilbao experience. We've been back four or five times in just 8 days here. Delicious drinks, the freshest tonic I've ever had, and overall amazing service. Come and experience the best drink you've had in ages.

I once trusted reviews on Yelp in Boston when people said this place has the best sushi outside…read moreJapan but It turned out to be a fake sushi place(cheap supermarket quality) located behind the mobile phone shop in china town!! tonight I repeated that mistake. I am a big gin and tonic fan, tried many versions ranging from night club to some special speakeasy. I must say this place is charging more than some fancy speakeasy I have been to, but the quality I think is similar to the nightclub. If the drink is amazing, I wouldn't be complaining at all. Maybe it might be good for some people, but not us. We were quite depressed from the whole experience, had to go to another place to redeem the night. Ps. We went there on Tuesday night.
