Asador Sagartoki is about the only restaurant I frequent in Vitoria; they have plenty of other…read moregreat restaurants, but I enjoy the atmosphere and the casually chic vibe of this place. It's hip, but not "hipster", it's friendly and not pretentious. Everything, even the stuff I wasn't crazy about, is delicious. I'm an adventurous type and will try just about anything, so even though the menu is in Spanish (Basque actually), I just point to something on it or to the food on display, not knowing at all what it might be and start grubbing - I'm never disappointed. If you're looking for something unusual and different from the standard restaurant fare - this is your place. Here's what I had: 2 pintxo huevo frito (fried egg yolk) 4 degustacion croque (mixed flavored croquettes) 1 cru-cru de foie (a cool dessert-type thingy with foie gras served in a tiny cone) 4 pintxo de sushi (I could've passed on this, but it was definitely NOT nasty) 1 pulpo pintxo (grilled octopus on toasted bread) 1 bacalao pil-pil (codfish in a typical yellow Basque sauce on toasted bread) These things plus a small bottle of water came to about $30, but it was worth it because it was several little things and I was full and even more satisfied than had I paid the same price for one item. Here is a link for some menu items translated in English: http://translate.google.es/translate?hl=en&sl=es&u=http://www.sagartoki.com/&prev=search By the way, "Asador" is Basque for "grill" or Spanish for "spit" - as in "put on the spit" (long wood or metal stake that game animals would be put on to roast.)

The classic tortilla made with egg, sliced potatoes, and lots of olive oil was juicy and succulent. The taco bonito was a rather dry but meaty chunk of tuna topped with chopped onions, tomatoes, and peppers, and plenty of olive oil. But the most unique pintxo I had came with two thick slices of creamy, melty brie cheese topped with a compote of mixed berries, and skewered with a mint leaf and a raspberry. Such a colorful melange of ingredients, and the sweetness of the berries had a nice contrast to the unctuous cheese!

This small place is really nice, to be recommended with extremely good value for money breakfasts and brunches. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. This is not only for Mini Fans but for all, including families. A lot of local people come here, especially staff from local offices. On weekends and nights, they turn into a cocktail bar. The place is well designed, and fun designed. They also have battery chargers for urgent needs, as you can see on the picture.

Each dish had so much flavor bursting and flavors contrasting in a great way. Our waitress was fantastic too and took note of any allergies or things we didn't like in order to alter the food so it was perfect for us. Overall AMAZING place to eat in Bilbao and a must try.
