I particularly like their Bacalao, one of the best I had. In front of the restaurant is a café bar with a line up of variety of Pintxos across the counter. All seemed to entice you to "pick me up". Superb selections. On the other side of the restaurant is a picnic ground which is so great during the summer months. There's a playground at the bottom and a small museum too.

We are from the pinxos menu and our meal was great. The local beers and txacoli was even better. Wife loved the food she ordered, pulpo a la gallega, and later stated it was the best she had in Spain, and she tried that plate at like 4 different places. When in Bakio, go to Birjilanda.

I love to see the owner and chef hands-on. They even bus the tables and sweep! So unassuming. It is evidence of their passion for their patrons.

Octopus, anchovies, and cod…read more Best octopus I've ever tried! The texture is soft (not chewy at all) and have a refreshing taste. We also got their anchovies, cod, croquettes and tuna belly. The cod has very good flavor -- not fishy at all, and I love the sauce that's paired with it. People usually make their tuna pretty dry/hard but this tuna belly dish was really soft, which I absolutely adore. Anchovies were perfect to pair with the bread they give you. Croquettes were nice and crispy on the outside with a flavorful filling that makes my palette happy. Staff here is super friendly! They were so patient with us since we didn't know how to speak Spanish and they took the time to explain the entire menu with us.

The service was a bit of a mess lol people everywhere trying to get into the queue to order. However, the staff did their best and delivered everything as quickly as possible. I recommend going at off-peak hours... Unless you want to experience ordering like the locals XD

The thing about sitting outside is that there are smokers. :/ The pinxtos are premade and just heated up. We tried txangurro (spider crab) gratin, artichoke in tempura, and crispy squid with onion. I was a bit disappointed, because I didn't care for any of them. The bread was quite crusty. I guess pinxtos aren't my thing.
