What to say! Currently my favourite restaurant in Bilbao. Every time I drop by for holidays (4-5…read moretimes a year as I'm originally from Bilbao) I go here. 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

Great service and good prices but the sushi didn't taste super fresh when I had it.

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.

I found out about Mao after a bit of poking around on the web, and decided to give it a go for dinner. The interior of Mao was impressive: a water water gurgled on one side of the room, a large hibachi grill stood in the corner of one dining room, and the decor was minimalistic and modern. The service was quick and professional. I started off with the miso soup--not hard to mess up, and this one did not disappoint. Later I moved on to some specialty rolls: Hot Philadelphia, Dragon and Kani. The latter two were the best: fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented, while the Hot Philadelphia was just ok. Later I ordered a plate of chicken teriyaki, which I was not impressed with. It was strips of dry chicken breast doused in a watery teriyaki sauce--I've had much, much better. Lastly, I had dessert: green tea ice cream, and fried chocolate-banana rolls. Both were delicious. Washed everything down with a nice glass of house red--excellent for 2.50 a glass! Overall, the ambience was great, service was good, and there was some nice sushi to be found.

I was very happy to stumble upon this little ramen shop while wandering around the neighborhood. I…read morehad been craving something hot and soupy for days as a result of being a little homesick by now. The ramen really hit the spot, The shop exterior drew me in because it reminded of the storefronts in Japan. The interior space was small and intimate just as it would be in Japan. Menu is small making it rvery easy to make a choice. I decided on a ramen featuring a local favorite, the boquerones, which also came with a perfectly cooked soft boiled egg. The noodles had a perfect bite to them; not too doughy or soft. Broth was nice and clear with well balanced flavor. Staff was friendly and attentive. The waiter was happy to repeatedly pour my cider the Basque way which requires a lot of arm motion and coordination. Apparently, the cider has to hit the glass in order to reach maximum potential. This little spot was a refreshing break from the tourist crowds in Old Town, especially if you are craving some Asian flavors.

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.)
