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.

Highlights

  • Extensive selection of traditional Basque pintxos
  • Seasonal mushroom and fungi dishes
  • Freshly prepared grilled fish
  • Located in the heart of San Sebastián's Old Town
