Basque version of tapas. Excellent service, very attentive and not rushed. Perfect recommendations for wine with the different Pintxos. Each dish tasted fantastic and all were made fresh. Easily as good as what we had in San Sebastián. Highly recommend! It was a bit difficult to find. They would benefit from brighter signage but don't let that deter you. In a small strip mall, same one that Enoteca is in. read more

This place took us back to San Sebastian. Some dishes reminded us of Seville, Spain. We started with pan y aceite de oliva- (bread & extra virgin olive oil), boquerones, zanahorias rostizadas - (sevillian style roasted carrots), indurain - (bonito tuna belly, anchovy, guindilla, olive), albondigas, tortilla española, brocheta de gambas, and cani cabra a la plantxa - (goat cheese, pistachio, passion fruit, sherry vinegar reduction). All delicious! Great memory lane little trip to Spain. Can't wait to come back to pair everything with Txakolina. read more

Love the Spanish tapas and long-time owners @ PintxoPote. During our recent visit, we had our favorites: Indurain blanco (blending of different flavors/textures gets better with every chew), aceitunas (mix of different types of olives), zanahorias rostizadas (roasted carrots with a sweet flavor), and tortilla española. And we tried a new item,tabla quesos (mix of cheeses - cow, goat, sheep) and pan (bread), which we loved so much that we went to buy similar cheeses a few days later from the store. Highly recommend for dinner or special occasion. We enjoy sitting at counter due to the beautiful material on the counter and wall in front of counter, as well as explanations of the variation of flavors, if there is mix of tapas being presernted/served at same time. read more

This is a hidden gem. Small plates of delicious Spanish delights. Spanish cheese & meats on a starter plate are delicious. A little water cracker would be nice with it but not served here. A fabulous wine selection tops the bill to accompany your selection of foods. I had the octopus which was very good with a selection of Spanish olives. Delightful! read more

The ambience is clean and upbeat spanish. The service was accommodating. The food was fresh. Pintxo are many small tapas. There is more almond olive.meats slow. We have pan y aceite. (4/5) we can taste olive. It is reasonable price. Glida begra. Roast garlic is spicy good4/5 Hueva gamba shrimp (4/5) Costulla de cordero ribs 5/5 Octopus 5/5 read more

We've been to Madrid and Barcelona where we experienced Tapas in their homeland (or at least one of their homelands). It was great but we've never really had as good an experience in the US until now. In fact, we would rate PintxoPote higher than the places we went to in Spain in all respects except price This is a nice little restaurant in Los Gatos that has been around for a few years. It was the occasion of my wife's birthday and our daughter and fiancé were hosting us. The staff is friendly and accommodating; the interior is pleasant and not overdone. The food is excellent and all our questions well answered by our attendant, who I think is also one of the owners. We really went for a great selection of items which are well cataloged and annotated in the photos I uploaded. Prices are all included in the menu photo. My favorites were: 1. The rack of lamb (costillar de cordero) was awesome! The meat was very high grade with excellent texture and flavor. The stack of potatoes in the middle of the star of lamb chops was to die for. 2. The embutidos de bellota (100% acorn iberico, chorizo, salchichon) was great. Just check out the photo - it looks great too. The paper thin slices of sausage were excellent. I really liked the chorizo with its mild spice but heavy smoke. 3. The cani cabra a la planta (goat cheese, pistachio, passion fruit, sherry vinegar reduction) looks and tastes great. I love the caramel top and fruity elements. Everything else was great, too with the possible exception of the albondigas (wagyu meatballs) which I found to be pretty much good meatballs to me. I liked them but don't need to go get them again because they are kind of expensive to be ... meatballs. That said, service is on point and I would go again! read more

Great food and service. I ordered all my favorites: Indurain - bonito tuna belly, anchovy, guindilla, olive on a skewer Indurain blanco - bonito tuna belly, boqueron, guindilla, olive, onion bell pepper (next time I won't order both, just this one) costillar de cordero - rack of lamb (must order early as it takes 30 minutes) and it was cooked the way I like it - medium rare pulpo a la plantxa - griddled octopus on cauliflower purée albondigas 100% wagyu meatballs, piquillo pepper sauce, gluten-free cani cabra a la plantxa - goat cheese, pitachio, passion fruit, sherry vinegar reduction (I could have eaten the whole thing by myself) tabla quesos - selection of Spanish cheeses embutidos de bellota - 100% acorn iberico, chorizo, salchicho brocheta de gambas - shrimp on a stick postre - warm flourless chocolate cake, ice cream, raspberry coulis 1 glass of Embruix (Priorat) - paired VERY well with the food, a red wine blend (no wonder I liked it) 1 glass Marques de Murrieta (Rioja) - super mild in flavor. Everything I ordered was delicious and well prepared. Angie was friendly, informative, and made sure she explained everything before ordering. read more

We have eaten at PintxoPote probably at least 50 times! Angie and Hector host us as if we were family and the wonderful food keeps us coming back and back. My wife and I have tried just about everything on the menu, but the rack of lamb and ribeye prepared with potato slices are our favorites. They have a wonderful selection of Spanish wines, and all the appetizers are amazing. Last but not least you must try to chocolate cake prepared by Hector, outstanding. I would list each dish, but I see Monica S. did an amazing job giving a detailed description of many of the wonderful dishes offered. Enjoy! read more

We are always looking for good, classic but fresh Spanish food in the South Bay - as I have spent time working in Spain. A colleague told me about PinxtoPote and the very same evening my wife and I were at a table at 7pm. The service was incredibly warm and so friendly and the ambience helped us relax from a long week. The menu was incredible - a combination of special dishes that we familiar with and a sprinkling of their own blend. We were blown away by dish after dish and had an absolutely amazing evening. If you want to experience true Spanish hospitality and very special food and wine then I would highly recommend PinxtoPote. This is the closest I've tasted to Spain in the US. read more

An amazing slice of Spain tucked away in the corner of a strip mall! We felt like we were on vacation with an incredibly warm and welcome staff patiently walking us through the tapas menu. We loved everything we got, with perfect execution served hot to the table, but the standouts were - skewers with poached tuna belly, anchovie, olive and pepper--a one bite wonder with an eye opening flavor combination - garlic shrimp, with a superb, subtle garlic sauce - bacon wrapped dates with sea salt - piping hot light potato chorizo pepper omelette - a unique combination of creamy goat cheese, passion fruit, pistachio - grilled garlic oyster mushrooms Prices were reasonable, service was fast and personal, clean ambience. Will definitely be back! read more

This is an absolute hidden gem in Los Gatos with service that makes you feel like you've entered into the home of the sweetest family. Come here when you want to have a slow meal to catch up with friends or a romantic evening. The food is exquisite, though there are fewer options for vegetarians. I was still able to have asparagus, olives, roasted carrots, a cheese plate, bread with olive oil, and an absolutely divine gazpacho that was off-menu. Plus the chocolate raspberry cake was the perfect way to top off the meal! read more

This place is amazing! Loved it from start to finish. First our server, Angie, provided a very thorough review of the menu. Really helpful as we picked a variety of different plates, each a delicious treat. The proprietor, Hector, warmly greeted us during our dinner. The food comes in small plates but each was very packed with a perfect orchestration of ingredients and perfectly presented at just the right pace to linger over the meal. This is truly an incredible experience and should be packed every night. The location is tucked away out of sight in Los Gatos on N Santa Cruz. The lack of signage probably limits awareness of this hidden gem. Go and enjoy this restaurant before everyone finds out! You wil not be disappointed! read more

Very good, enjoy the food, services and ambience. It is quite for a weekend night. I wish it had more neighborhood clouds. I understand it is on a pricey side, but the food is delicious! I will be a repeat customer for sure! read more

Wow! I've been searching for a good place to eat since moving here from Oakland 3 years ago. I finally found it here! Hands down the best restaurant in Los Gatos. Every bite of food was exceptional. There wasn't one dish that failed to impress. I hesitated writing this because I selfishly want to keep this place all to myself. I'd give it 8 stars if I could! read more

Hard to find restaurant tucked away in the Coldwell Banker plaza. Our friends found this place and set up a dinner for 3 couples. The place is quite cozy. There are only 3 tables that can seat 4 or more patrons. The rest are pub table for 2 and then the long bar seating. We were cozy with 6 people crammed into the 4 person booth as the large tables were already occupied. It's hard to say anything bad when there are two older entrepreneurs who take pride in the dishes that they serve. And to run a business in Los Gatos must be difficult due to the rents. So I commend them for doing what they love. The food was good. The service was good. But I'm not a tapas fan to begin with. The lamb though was fantastic, the shrimp was excellent and the octopus was cooked to perfection with a great sauce! I took pics of what I could as people dug in and it wasn't picture worth then. The presentation of the dishes are good. The menu is limited so for vegetarians, there is not too much to eat. Our guest at least age eggs, so she munched on the appetizers and had the egg omelette for dinner. The place is certainly worth going to to support the owners and try this out read more

This was a nice experience. First time having Spanish tapas in the Bay Area. Their selection is interesting. As another reviewer mentioned, definitely be informed about the menu as some items are priced per piece and some come with a few pieces. We didn't see paella on the menu, but would like to try it next time. read more

PintxoPote - Menu - Spanish Near Me - Los Gatos, California

Came here about seven years ago and never went back. Friends and I dined here for a girl's night, but this time, it was me and the hubby. He was so proud of himself bc he found this place himself; usually I do all the research and make all the reservations, but not this time. We arrived at 6:45pm and this place was almost fully packed. We tried to ask if we could switch to the bar, but it was already filled for the night. Angie initially took our order and helped us with the menu (she is soooo thorough with her descriptions of each item). As it got busy, Hector also helped serve our table; both were awesome. We had some ideas of what to order, but Angie's descriptions of everything was soooo good we just kinda let her pick most of our stuff. EVERYTHING we ordered was delicious. Note that this is Spanish tapas, so portions are small and meant to be shared and eaten in one or two bites. I did remember that when we first came some years ago, service was slow, and although it was not as bad this time, they can benefit from another server. The manager came by later to thank us for coming in and explained that they had not been this busy since the pandemic. I'm glad to hear they are doing better, and well. Some side notes: Corkage is $25 although they have an extensive list of offerings. Parking is easy; there is a stand-alone lot. Will definitely come back. This is as close as it gets to SPAIN! read more

Came by the other night for dinner and it was a tasty experience. Made a reservation and our table was ready upon arrival. Parking was plentiful in the strip mall. Our waitress, Angie, was super sweet, wearing a mask covering her mouth and nose the entire evening while carefully going over the menu giving us recommendations! She also took the time to check-in with us periodically throughout the evening! Started off the meal with the boquerones, white anchovies from the Cantabria sea cured in olive oil and they were tasty! The side of bread complemented this nicely! Moved on to the embutidos de bellota featuring 100% acorn, chorizo, salchichon and this was a phenomenal appetizer! Smaller portions and perfect for ordering more! The cani cabra a la plantxa featuring warm goat cheese, pistachio, passion fruit, and sherry vinegar reduction was also phenomenal! This also complemented the complimentary bread nicely! The tortilla española with potato and onions was like an omelet that was cooked perfect with eggs that were medium. The highlight of the meal was the costillar de cordero featuring moruno spiced rack of lamb that was cooked to a perfect medium rare. The side of fried potatoes were excellent too! The lamb was flavorful and juicy. The chef even came out personally to check in on how the lamb came out! The esparragos a la plantxa with organic asparagus, olive oil, pepper, maldon flake salt was also delicious! Clientele at the restaurant were definitely on the affluent side being in Los Gatos, judging by the volume of late-model high-end luxury vehicles in the lot although the attire was on the casual end. ~$90/head after tax and gratuity for dinner. read more

Pros: - Local / Mom&pop shop with an excellent menu! Some of my favorites are the wagyu and the huevos con jamon that are to die for! Hector (head chef) does an excellent job and came to talk to us at the end of his shift. Super friendly and knowledgable guy! - Very intimate setting which makes it an idea place for a date or hanging with friends where you can hear each other talk and reminds you of being in Spain! - Service was excellent. Super friendly staff who is very attentive and working hard to meet the customer needs Cons: - Very tight space so might not be good for kids and a reservation is recommended - Prices are fair, but can be on the higher side - Portions are typically smaller since its a tapas joint, so don't going in expecting a huge meal then complain later that its not enough. it Tapas! that's how these places work :) Overall, Excellent food and environment while supporting the local community. Definitely will return! read more

I really really really enjoy tapas and was very excited to come to PintxoPote but left somewhat disappointed by the overall meal. For the cold pintxos, we ordered the Gilda (Anchovy), Huevo Gamba (Shrimp & Egg), Indurain (Anchovy+Tuna Belly) and the Boquerones (White Anchovies). The Huevo Gamba was my favorite as it had of the creaminess of a deviled egg + the acidity from the cornichon for a balanced bite. Each of the others were similar and overall I think they tended to be on the saltier/acidic side. They don't give you enough bread to help soak the acidity from the tapas which it so desperately needs. The Tabla Kursaal charcuterie board was good and I particularly enjoyed the chorizo sausage. I was disappointed by the Iberico Ham which is surprising since I always find it to be the best thing at most other places. Not so much here. It tasted a bit drier than usual and maybe would have been better with a dash of olive oil to bring it to life more. For the hot pintxos, we got the Pulpo (Octopus), Delicia (Dates), Setas Asadas (Cremini Mushrooms), and Huevos con Jamon (Eggs, Ham, potato chips). Pulpo - Undercooked and was a bit grimy/gritty in the middle. The cauliflower puree had very little flavor. Sadly very underwhelming. Delicia - Poor execution. The bacon was dry and not crispy/tender. I think the flavors are there but the bacon texture tasted like it was sitting out for a while under a heat lamp. Huevos con Jamon - A very good and delicious dish that reminds you of breakfast with the eggs over soft potato chips/fries. The added serrano ham doesn't bring much flavor to the dish. Overall it's good but these flavors I'm sure everyone has had before. Albondigas - Meatballs were cooked alright, a bit dry for my liking. But I wasn't a fan of the sauce it came with. It had a very turmeric-indian flavor profile that was fine but not great. We could only get reservations for the bar seating and really wish we had table. Even in these pandemic-times, they sit you right next to another party with very little space in between. You are practically touching elbows. This was very uncomfortable and made for an unpleasant seating arrangement. I've had better tapas place elsewhere and recommend checking out some other ones. PintxoPote is fine, but for the price you pay, I'm expecting great. read more

PintxoPote is definitely my top spot for Spanish Tapas. The servers, chef, and food runners are all great. They are passionate, knowledgeable, personable, and really take the time to make you feel like you are their most important guest. I love how intimate it feels. It's as if I am having a dinner party with my bestie and new friends from Spain. The food is great, it is nice they offer a menu but to be honest almost unnecessary. The server walks you through a very personalized set of recommendations with sincere and thoughtful descriptions. My friend and I were on our bestie date and ordered: 2 plates of boquerones (white anchovies), jamon (thinly sliced acorn fed serrano ham), wagyu ribeye, brocheta de gambas (shrimp on a skewer). The boquerones, jamon, and steak & potatoes are a must have! The boquerones and jamon were paired with a refreshing glass of white wine. One of my fave ways to start a Spanish dinner. We wanted our wagyu ribeye rare. The chef kindly asked us if we would like the caps trimmed and grilled into crispy bites to avoid chewy chunks of fat. It was such a pleasant suprise. The bites were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside... the perfect pairing for the bottle of rioja El Puntido recommended to us. Can't wait to come back! read more

Pintxo, not tapas. I learned pretty quickly from the wonderful chef who took time to explain how to optimize the dining experience. He gave wonderful descriptions of the menu offering, very helpful to first time guests. Definite highlight was how the open kitchen allows you to see hot plates made, very quickly after ordering. In fact they would be ready sooner than the cold skewers and the jamon plate. Food all came out tasting fresh, and nothing was overpowering in a negative way. Had all the items with photos here. The setting and background music was very much like the food. They all come together just right. This is my first 5 star review and I am really glad that this sets my benchmark as a novice yelper, but long time international gastronomic enthusiast. read more

Best meal in a long time- the goat cheese, cheese plate, tortilla, shrimp and mushroom skewers.. all stand outs amongst the things we ordered. Can't believe I haven't been before now and can't wait to go back! Excellent! Also for the people mentioning small portions... you must not be familiar with the concept of pintxos. read more

What a gem! I had no idea what a pintxo was or that PintxoPote existed until my first visit. I was clearly missing out! For those of you who hadn't heard of PintxoPote before, it's a Spanish wine and pintxo (similar to tapas) bar. They have an amazingly curated Spanish pintxos menu filled with things I got to try for the first time as well as an incredible selection of Spanish wines. My personal favorites were the huevo gamba (shrimp & quail egg), pulpo a la plancha (octopus), delicia (almond stuffed date with bacon), brocheta de gambas (garlic shrimp), tortilla espanola (potato and onion omelette), and the tabla jamon 100% iberico de bellota (iberico ham that has acorn notes cause the pigs eat acorns!). Will be back again soon! Also try the anchovy pintxos if you like anchovies! read more

Amazing and authentic tapas! Very friendly staff. We ordered about 10 dishes and we found all of them to be excellent. Highly recommend with the shortage of good restaurants in the South Bay. read more

I really liked this place! The food is delicious and the service is attentive. They have more traditional tapas style foods with hot and cold plates which is fun! The menu has been the same for a year so I definitely recommend a try but it's very easy to try a lot of the menu in one go! The wine menu here is incredible! I'll be back just for drinks and something to munch on soon! read more

If you love Basque pintxos (tapas), definitely come here! The service we received was so thoughtful and amazing, we were walked through the entire menu and advised on how best to order for our table of 4. We tried nearly everything on the menu, and it was all amazing! I love the portion sizes so you can really get a taste of a lot of different inspired dishes. We loved everything, but their signature dishes are the red and white anchovies (boquerones), served on a skewer in typical Donostia style - deliciously simple, refreshing, reminded me of San Sebastián. We also loved the hot dishes, especially the gambas, delicias, albóndigas, and cani cabra - highly recommend those! And we finished with cheese, jamón ibérico de bellota, and dessert. Wine selection was impressive and curated - loved it. Restaurant was styled simply, clean and elegant, but still very comfortable. Great for meeting friend, a wine and snack at the bar, or a lovely romantic date. We will definitely be back! read more

so glad i made the choice to come here today instead of Terra lol. we ordered a bunch of things to try and man oh man, so many little bits of surprises!!!! -gilda negra: our first bite and oh my goodnessssss, the balance of roasted garlic, bell pepper, anchovy, cuquillo olive was jus perfect!!!!!!! -indurain: which had bonito tuna belly and was also tasty but on the saltier side. -boquerones: white anchovies cured in olive oil that's on the more vinegary - this was my favoriteeeeereeeeee that i ordered another one. just plain little anchovies by themselves or on the little bread slices. -sampler of cheese and iberico meats - nice little variety with goat and cow cheese -huevos con jamon iberico: simple egg, potato chips and ham dish but pretty freaking good. -brocheta de gambas: 3 giant shrimps on skewers - it was pretty mediocre. shrimps were a bit tough, seems to have been overcooked -pulpo a la plancha: octopus dish. very tender and i'm wondering if it was sous vide too. however, i do not like the cauliflower puree. to me it didn't compliment the octopus -cani cabra a la plantxa: grilled goat cheese with pistachio, passion fruit, and sherry vinegarette reduction. such a nice little creamy cheese pie thing. the grill portion on the top makes you think it's something else too. you gotta just try it. we ordered another one!!! -albondigas: andalucian spiced wagyu beef meatballs - it was tender and soft but pretty 1 dimensional flavor though -lamb chop: very tender and seems to have been sous vide also i really like how this place is focused on simply accentuating the natural flavor of the food and there's no frill, no extra sauce, etc. in terms of service level and comfort ability at the restaurant: i must say this is what really took my rating ro a solid 5 star. the ENTIRE staff was fantastic!!! lady who seated us (forgot her name ) was fantastic! she recommended some dishes that she really likes and explained the flavor pretty well too! another server always came over to check on us, super attentive refilling our water etc. even the chef came over a couple times and brought the lamb over himself (he was a little awkward like he didn't know what to say? ) we felt really comfortable and taken care of and at the same time and really enjoyed our time there. we spent about $245 before tips and it was money very well spent for sure!! haven't had such a good meal in a while!!!!! read more

PintxoPote is tucked in the little shopping center in Los Gatos. The whole experience was EXCELLENT! Service - one of the best! Our waitress was so cute and always checking in on us. She gave us some favorites of hers, the chefs and customers. The owner/head chef also came to our table to welcome us and provide us with favorites! Favorites: Tumaca - tomato, bread and EVOO - one of our favorites! So simple, but so delicious! I think we ordered this at least three times! All of the anchovy appetizers! At first, I was hesitant because anchovy tends to have a very salty flavor, but paired with the olives or peppers, everything meshed together so well! The Gilda Negra and Gilda were some of our faves. Cani Cabra a La Plantxa - the goat cheese/pistachio dish. We loved this one too! It's pretty light, has a bit of sweetness and melts in your mouth! I highly recommend PintxoPote! Make reservations for a nice night out and a memorable dining experience. read more

It's an intimate environment, especially if you sit at the bar. The owners have been my servers in the three times I have visited the restaurant. They will take you through much of the menu to make sure you understand the concept. The flavors are delicious, and presentation is nice. It's going to be a pricey meal, so be prepared for a more continental understanding of portion size. I wish the seats were a bit less industrial and cold to the touch. I went to the car to get a wrap for my legs. read more

Very good food. Clean. Service was great. Can't wait to go back. I think I ordered half of the menu. Was not disappointed at all.

TLDR; great date night restaurant with small tapas portions We ordered 2 items from the pintxos frios. Indurain blanco & Gilda Negra. When they brought out both plates, they told us to eat the Indurain Blanco first flavor is a bit more intense. I liked how they gave us recommendations on the order to eat the dishes and both were delicious and and a great balance. The delicia was yummy too and would also recommend ordering! We ordered a few other dishes and they were decent. The service was great and it was not crowded, even on a Friday night. There's limited seating and probably would recommend small groups of 2-4. read more

I have been coming to Pintxo Pote for years and very glad to see this wonderful Spanish tapas restaurant survived through pandemic. Pintxo Pote is styled after typical tapas places in Spain, particularly San Sebastián. It's is small, just like in Spain, and most things happen around the bar. On a busy weekend night it could get packed quite easily so reservations are definitely recommended here. Some of my favorite dishes include: Boquerones (white anchovies) Indurain (tuna belly) Grilled octopus Brocheta de Gambas (Shrimp skewers) Tortilla español (Spanish omelette) Over the years I tried many dishes here and like most of them. Needless to say, this is a place to share food. You can count on a great and reasonably priced bottle of red or white wine being available here, I personally would recommend sticking to a special of the day. They also have Spanish hard cider - definitely worth a try! Tips: Come in a group; or at least a couple and share food to try various dishes. Plenty of parking. Make reservations. Sit at the bar or bar table. read more

It was a stormy Saturday evening when we stumbled upon PintxoPote. Clad in a rain jacket, beanie and yoga pants (and without a reservation).. I was feeling a little bit out of my element. This was a bit more upscale than I anticipated! However, despite my casual attire, the kind servers quickly made me feel welcome. We managed to snag a table on the high-tops and a waitress took about 5-minutes to talk with us and explain the menu in great detail. Tapa style, it's great if your order a bunch of things and share. The highlights? The cava and the Pulpo!!! The pulpo was so incredible and tender. Cheese plate was incredible. Just a lot of really great authentic food from the Basque region. It is pricier, so don't come in expecting dollar tapas. High quality food and service! Muchas gracias, PintxoPote! read more

We weren't able to get online reservation or reservation by phone call. They were fully booked. So we came here Sat around 5:30 and was able to snag a table for 4. Only indoor dining here. Wished they had outdoor dining option. Staff wore mask. Only one restroom. There's both bar and table dining. Everything was good. We ordered octopus, fried Shishito pepper, wagyu meatball, rack of lamb, vegetarian chickpea soup with chorizo, goat cheese, iberico and chorizo charcuterie, shiitake mushroom, and 2 kinds of bonito pork belly with anchovy and bell pepper. The charcuterie, lamb rack and octopus were my favorites. Service was fast. Plenty of parking in the lot shared with other business. read more

Food was good and service was friendly. We weren't familiar with the food and our server made a lot of recommendations for food and wine pairings. We just trusted him and went with it and everything was delicious. My favorites of the night were the charcuterie board, omelet, and mushrooms. I usually don't like chorizo as I find them too dry and salty, but the ones they procured were delicious! The cheeses paired nicely as well. The mushrooms were very garlicky, which I love. And the omelet, if I remember correctly, was filled with cheese, which added a nice depth of flavor. I can't speak for authenticity as I haven't been to Spain yet, but delicious food is delicious food! read more

4 stars for the food, with the rack of lamb priced at $72 the best value because it comes with 8 chops (good for two people), and they told me they source the meat from Colorado. They also trim a lot of the fat, so you end up with the juiciest tender chops. However, it takes a LONG time to cook, and arrived at our table almost an hour after ordering and a big lull between the other dishes. 3 stars for ambience. High top setup not comfortable. Not a great date night location as most seats are at the bar and narrow restaurant. It also costs approx. $100/person (before gratuity) to order enough dishes to be full (ex. the shrimp skewer was just 2 shrimps) plus two glasses of wine, so my date said they won't return because of limited non-red meat dishes and vegetable dishes, but I would because of the lamb. read more

All of the flavors at PintxoPote are amazing, incredibly mouthwatering and so authentic! So much better than Teleferica Barcelona and the prices are much better too. The owners served us themselves and explained every dish in intricate detail. Wonderful service! We'll be back! read more
