I seen this place was well rated and literally across the road and offered the steak dinner I was after so I headed across. Being from Scotland I was a little early for dinner at 8pm but was happy to sit at the bar with a beer until good to go, I hadn't sat for 10 mins before bring offered a table, a lot earlier than I should have I'd suggest to their credit. I sat down and ordered the nachos and a rib eye steak for main. The nachos are very different to what is served in Scotland of course so different to my usual but very good, much better than Scottish version of Doritos with lumps of cheese, salsa and guacamole but then that wouldn't be difficult! The main was brilliant. Not the best I've had but then that is reserved for the wagyu steak I had this time last year in the far East so not fair to compare to be honest. I managed to squeeze in a dessert as hadn't eaten all day and to be honest when it came I didn't want to disturb it as it looked so good on the plate! The flavours didn't disappoint either, simple banana pancakes it's seems aren't all that simple, presented exceptionally and tasting the same I can thoroughly recommend coming here. Great atmosphere, cool area and fantastic food.

I stopped by this place and the sushi and maki rolls hit the spot. First, it is not a 3 EU, it is more like 1 EU. I got 6 pieces of wonderful and 1 maki shrimp roll for 14eu. Not sure why this place is rated as 3EU. It is super affordable. Second, the fish was fresh and rice was well cooked. Lastly, the service was friendly and expedite. Will definitely come back to this place if I am in Bilbao and want something light.

I RARELY take the time to review a place no matter how good but we both felt compelled to leave one after our experience today. We cannot speak to the teppanyaki aspect, as we were there for lunch and that's generally a dinner type thing with friends and/or family, but we had lots of sushi and all of it was super fresh. The seaweed salad and miso soup were both fantastic - perfectly executed. The service was very quick and attentive, the space itself very clean, spacious, well appointed.

San sebastian is a unique oceanfront city and this is the perfect place to enjoy it. Come here before the crowds take all the seats. There aren't a ton of seats either. They have some spots for bigger groups as well but it is not a massive place. I really enjoyed it here. The service was good as well. The waitress was attentive and friendly. Would definitely come back for the view alone. We didnt get fancy drinks but they had a good selection. Come check it out!

Located next to City Hall, on the waterfront, the 1930s Art Deco style building offers spectacular bay views. In fact, if you sit at a waterfront table, you'll think you're on a boat. The establishment was created by the same team behind the highly successful and popular Atari Gastroteka nearby in the town's Old Quarter. Their theme for GU -- "Music, Gastronomy, Architecture." The staff is professional and friendly. The cocktails are excellent. The sound system is state of the art. The building is an architectural gem. The drink menu is quite diverse featuring a dozen different custom cocktails. The mixologists in San Sebastián take their jobs seriously. The "El Diablo" is their spicy take on a classic margarita with ginger beer adding the zing. The GU Mule is their version of a classic Moscow Mule. The food includes a limited but well designed selection of sushi and pan-Asian selections presented in an artful style. GU straddles the line between restaurant, bar, cocktail lounge, and night club. Unlike many of San Sebastian's bars, it does not offer food at the bar -- only at the tables. The interior decor is quite edgy, with expansive glass sliding window walls, huge skylight, and comfortable Eames-style leather seating. The life-size cardboard cutouts of Le Corbusier (nude) and Mies van der Rohe (suited) in the men's roof are comical. Definitely worth checking out for a relaxed light meal and a few drinks while taking in one of San Sebastián's beautiful sunsets.

Kenji is a great stop when you need a different bite of food.  Kenji sushi is a small corner restaurant in Old Town with a couple tables outside and a handful of indoor seating.  We stopped in on our daily food crawl through Old Town to get toro nigiri and a four piece of their "Special" maki roll (shrimp tempura). Their chicken yakitori is also a worthy bite. On our third and last visit, our order for the "Special" maki roll was lost in translation and we were served spicy tuna. Still good but the "Special" was our favorite.

My recommendations: - tan tan men: they say it's spicy but not at all. Very similar to the Paitan but with some "spicy" mince meat. Extremely tasty and my go to. - Paitan: a more pure flavour to the broth and extremely tasty and with great body. I would recommend it any day it's just a tinny wee bit under the previous one. Something else I want to say is that while I have tried the chintan, and I'm not all that keen on it due to a more "fishy" and thin broth, it is still full of flavour
