We opted for a few pintxos for lunch while we were visiting town. We also had a couple of drinks my husband got whiskey with coke and I asked for a local cocktail since I'm not much of a wine drinker. I was handed a cup of pacharán which was a bit strong but was nice to try something different. The pintxos came out one at a time which was nice we were able to fully enjoy each on their own. The bao was the only one I didn't really like mostly the bun part. It didn't taste like it was cooked all the way and was a bit gummy and there was not a lot of meat filling. Next was the lamb which was really tender and flavorful. The couscous was ok nothing special and not much seasoning to it. Then the beef cheek and mashed potatoes came out which was the star of the pintxos that we had. It was also very tender and the mash was also cooked perfectly. All of this was shared between the two of us and was very filling. The waiter let us know that some of the pinxtos could also be ordered in a full size if we wanted. We enjoyed sampling the pinxtos and would definitely recommend coming here to get a taste of local cuisine.

We enjoyed a terrific dinner at this small restaurant in the heart of Pamplona. There's a busy bar…read moredownstairs with tapas and drinks. Upstairs is a delightful restaurant that's a favorite with locals. The service here is impeccable and the food was fabulous. We started with a grilled vegetable plate -- vegetables are hard to find in Spain in October! We also enjoyed the classic Spanish meal of grilled steak and potatoes. Our waitress recommended a very nice rioja, the wine of the region. That was superb too! We're not normally dessert eaters, but we wanted to extend this lovely experience so we ordered the waitress' suggestion of a chocolate dessert with cafe con leche.

Really delicious pulpo a la plancha. We ordered two! Good service, and yummy desserts.read more

At the end of the meal I was shocked to be presented with a bill (cuenta) nearly 150% of the…read moreadvertised Menu del Dia (22€ rather than 15€ advertised), although I had ordered the Menu del Dia. Normally, the wine is presented with the Menu del Dia as comes with the menu. Here a greater quantity apparently was placed on the table without explanation to entice the diner to drink more. Then a nearly 50% supplement was added (7€) when the wine presented was consumed. I had intended to give a decent review for the food. I took my time, sending messages, reviewing my email, and reviewing the CAMINO map to Los Arcos and beyond. I ordered El Menu del Dia and only the options offered and I consumed only what was then presented. Consequently, I expected a bill for the amount of the Menu del Dua (15€) not 22€ because I drank the wine presented which the waitress (whom I confirmed was the owner) said was more than allowed for El a Menu del Dia!!

Great wine selection and delicious pintxos. Beautiful ambience and friendly service, too. Love it.read more
