What happens when you get the time zones mixed up between UK and Spanish times? Get to your reservation an hour early - when the restaurant opens at 20:45. The restaurant looked very closed when we arrived but managed to flag down some of the kitchen staff to ask if there was a place nearby for a drink.
One of the American guys directed us down the road towards the station where we found this nice chic outdoor bar. We ordered a round of txakoli and nice to have it outside whilst the sun was setting.
Definitely recommend going if you get to Arzak a bit early for your reservation... but surely others usually don't make the same mistake we did! read more
