The presentation was immaculate, usually I care more about the taste but the simplicity and thoughtfulness of each plate made me pause and appreciate the presentation. Each dish was the right temperature, tasted amazing and left me wanting a bit more, but the next dish would come and I'd want more of that and the next...until I was completely stuffed. The pacing was nice ans steady, not leaving too much time to be bored and not too little time to feel like the last bite hasn't gone down. I enjoyed every aspect of this experience- and loved that they offered for us to meet the kitchen staff as well!

One of my favorite meals on my most recent Spain trip, Amelia was a delight. A very fun and…read moreinteresting tasting menu, served in a very laidback yet beautiful atmosphere. Most of the seats in the restaurant are at the kitchen counter, where you get to watch the chef's cook and plate everything. The playlist is awesome, the food is awesome, the service is super friendly and professional. The menu shows influences from Spain, Italy, and Japan, among others. It is a relatively quick tasting, the food is very palatable, you don't get overwhelmed but are very satiated by the end. There wasn't a weak course for me - everything was cooked perfectly. Heavy focus on seafood as expected, but there is a main entree (pigeon, or upgrade to a beautiful a5 wagyu cut - what I did). The bread service was amazing (4 types of butter, 2 types of salt, 2 types of olive oil). The amuse were clean and make you excited for the meal. There are 5 options for champagne aperitifs, and a great selection of wines by the glass. The desserts are phenomenal, some of the best I had on my trip, not overly sweet or indulgent but just right. The meal left such an impression that I tried to come back the next day with my husband (no seats left unfortunately); but I did add on a reservation to Paulo's 1 star in Barcelona (Aleia), which showed some similarities to this menu and was also very good. Can't wait to return to SS and Amelia!

The staff was kind and helpful on recommendations. She even brought out two of their wines for me to try and decide between. We had the olives, tuna belly (in season) and steak tartare. All were perfect. The olives went well with our wine and the tuna belly was flavorful and juicy. The steak tartare was a highlight. Perfect consistency and topped with a runny egg, as it should be. I would love to visit their Australia location someday.

The staff is accommodating and the service is excellent. Don't miss this place if you're in San Sebastian. It's well worth the search to find it to sample their delicious food. Yummy!

Pamplona is most famous for it's San Fermin festival and the running of the bulls. however in the…read morelast few years it is starting to become a great destination for gastronomy. There are chefs from some of the bigger cities in Spain relocating here and doing great things. But there are also local ones that have gone through the world and have come back to make great restaurants. The long standing Pilar Idoate has her small little empire with her family for sure. Chef David Yarnoz has taken the old mill house on the outskirts of Pamplona in Urdaniz and created a gastronomic oasis for the area. Navarre is an interesting area. People consider themselves Basque or Spanish, there is not a lot of folks that think of themselves as both. Kingdom back in the day was quite powerful and of course comes lots of influences of war and conquest. So you get the influences of the cooking of said Kingdom and a chef that expresses all the products and techniques of what it is to be in this region. It's an amazing experience to off the beaten path, away from the main city and be able to eat high end interpretations (they also make classics at the sister space) of the Navarran countryside. Ill let the pictures do the talking as I myself am still trying to learn the traditions and evolutions of this region

I think that if they do not have adequate space, then, they should not accept large parties. We were accommodated around a round table next to the kitchen where space was tight. In addition, the place was cold. We let them know and service said: "We just turned off the heating system". Ok, that was the reason why we were complaining and they did not do anything to fix it. We ended up eating with our coat on, which was not nice and marred the whole experience. To sum it up, food and table service were good, ambiance and conditions, not so much. A pity that such a nice place could not / did not want to pay attention to details.
