The service was very attentive (Isabel - thank you) and the food fantastic, prawn bacon and mango salad as starter and a tuna stew and slow-cooked secreto with honey and mustard. Other choices were available, that's what we had. We'll be back for sure. Eskerrik asko! ”
“ I love this restaurant. It is based on a Basque menu which is always extremely imaginative and very different to all the other restaurants that are in close proximity. The portions are deceptively generous and the staff are always very cheerful and helpful when deciding what to choose from the set menu. Everything is homemade and the cheesecake is to die for . It really is food heaven for me. ”
