Worth it?
Patience is part of the meal at Bar Nestor. The tortilla is made twice a day and cut into 12 slices each time, so creators arrive early to put their name on a list in person; one suggests 5:15pm for dinner. The txuleta steak can mean a two-hour wait. Seating is limited and the posts say to reserve early, yet they agree it is worth the effort for food lovers.
Before you go
- Sign up in person for the tortilla; one creator says to arrive around 5:15pm to get on the dinner list.
- Order the txuleta if you can wait; a post mentions two hours for the steak.
- Round out the table with the tomato salad and fried Gernika peppers.
Highlights
- Legendary Spanish omelet (tortilla) served twice daily
- High-quality txuleta (beef steak)
- Fresh local tomato salad
- Fried Gernika peppers
