Worth it?
Mushroom lovers should put Ganbara near the top of a San Sebastián list. Creators keep ordering the wild mushrooms with egg yolk, and two mention Anthony Bourdain in connection with the place. Two warnings from the posts: one creator waited over 30 minutes, and specialties like the scarlet prawns can get pricey. The crab tart, at €4.20, is the value pick one post calls underrated.
Before you go
- Order the wild mushrooms with egg yolk; one creator suggests pairing mushrooms with foie gras.
- Try the crab tart (€4.20 in one post) and the tuna carpaccio.
- Arrive early, since one creator had a wait of more than 30 minutes.
- Ask the price before ordering scarlet prawns; a creator flags them as expensive.

- Extensive selection of traditional Basque pintxos
- Seasonal mushroom and fungi dishes
