Worth it?
A dependable first stop for a pintxo crawl, as one creator puts it, with a long list of hot plates and a busy bar. The catch is the dish it is best known for: one post says the txuleta has been inconsistent and overcooked lately, and another tells people to get their steak across the street instead. Order the solomillo, scallops and sea urchin and the posts are much more positive.
Before you go
- Order the solomillo (sirloin) pintxo rather than the txuleta, as creators suggest.
- Grilled scallops, sea urchin or uni cream, prawn skewers and grilled foie gras are the other picks in the posts.
- It sits on 31 de Agosto Kalea, the same street as La Viña, so the cheesecake is an easy dessert after.
Highlights
- Signature Solomillo pintxo
- Traditional Basque txuleta steak
- Fresh grilled scallops and turbot
- Vibrant pintxos bar atmosphere
