  • We only had a single(!!) mushroom pintxo as we were already so full from pintxo hopping, but the man (I think he was the owner? He appears in some photos here) was the absolute loveliest man. Mushrooms were delicious, service out of this world. Thank you so much!
  • The brothers running this place do an incredible job. They prepare the pintxos the way their family has done it for generations. Here you are guaranteed classic Bilbao pintxos. Its delicious and the friendliness of the staff is amazing. Take some time to have a chat with them and learn about the Basque culture.
