I loved the razor clams which I'd never had before. If you like clams you'll love these. The large turbot was excellent. Also had the kukutxo(?) fish cheeks which were good, but had a fatty texture that not everyone liked. Fresh leafy greens are hard to come by so we also had the mixed salad which was good. The asparagus was ok but mushy...like maybe what you'd get from a jar. The local beer was also refreshing. The shrimp was also really good. For dessert we shared the Basque cake and apple tart which were both great.

Came here to Zarautz for some good Tapas and a walk along the Boardwalk. It was around 1.30pm and…read morethe place still busy, but there were some empty tables outside. Our Bulldog was welcome as well. This Tapas Bar is located on a busy and lively plaza. Great atmosphere, lots of local customers. The restaurant mostly has raciones and Tapas. Exactly what we came for. Go grab some Tapas at the bar. Some you have to order and wait for them to be ready. For this you'll get a buzzer. Wine by the glass is tasty and well-priced. We ordered Foie Gras with egg and goat cheese (crazy, but good combo), goat cheese/pepper, croqueta/pepper and a veggie/goat cheese tapa. Also a small Jamon sandwich and following small plates (raciones): grilled shrimp, scallops and a tasty small piece of suckling pig. All the Tapas were really tasty, hot and freshly made at this time of the day. Prices are on the lower end. We had three glasses of wine each and all the Tapas and raciones. Came in under 50 Euros for everything. A really fun and also very good Tapas Bar. Surely a place to come back to one day.

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.

Great pinxtos, beer, wine and reggaeton music. Indoor and outdoor seating. Quick service.read more

We came for lunch the next day and it was more manageable. We bucked up and dove in. We learned that the drill is to find a table or bar space and order drinks, then peruse the tapa offerings along the bar. You pay when you've ordered the items you want. When you want more, you return to the bar, get more and pay. Tables are precious, but they do turn over so just be patient. The folks behind the bar get busy. If you speak Spanish, you can get their attention more easily. If not, don't be shy, signal you are ready to order. The staff is there to move customers, so be quick about decisions. They do understand and speak some English though there's not much chatting going on. This was some of the best tapas we've had on the the trip and we went to Madrid and San Sebastian. We just picked things that looked interesting not knowing what they were. Everything was delicious. Several items were creamy and rich like the crispy duck, crispy spinach and shrimp, and the sea urchin. The foie gras was cooked just enough to brown but still had plenty of melty richness. We had everything plus 4 beers for about $57. It's a great place and definitely worth a visit if you're in Pamplona.

The coffee wasn't as good as I've had another places, and I asked for a Caliente pitxo, which is supposed to be made fresh. He however, folded from under the bar and it was barely lukewarm. Only good part was it had nice flavoring. It's a small space with standing room only, but has a WC.

Just beautiful peppers, amazing fresh bread, blood sausage, and other sausages. Made fresh in-house and served by a couple of older gentlemen who could not possibly have been sweeter to me and my wife. It's the sort of spot where, when you're finished with your pinchos, you toss the wrappers and napkins on the floor and head out. I absolutely loved the vibe in here. As low-key as it could possibly get. The pace is unhurried, but the food reaches you quickly, and you will be blown away by the quality of the sausages, the peppers, the olives, the cheeses, the anchovies and sardines, and all the other basics done so flawlessly that you'll want to come back again and again. A special request for blood sausage was happily honored despite it needing to be stuffed and cut fresh. A perfect place to begin your Donostia journey, because you'll get Basque food as it is, not a fusion or an elevated reinterpretation. Plenty of places in the Old Town do modern takes very well, but this is the fundamentals, executed with perfection.
