Worth it?
Cheap, loud and quick, this is a stop on a pintxos crawl rather than a sit-down dinner. Orders are shouted across the tiled room, and a bell rings when people tip. One creator puts the mussels at €5.50 a serving and says the plain lemon ones are the favorite. Patatas bravas with the house sauce and crispy calamari round out the order. Skip it if you want a quiet table.
Before you go
- Order the lemon mussels, the creator's favorite.
- Get the patatas bravas for the signature sauce.
- Leave a tip and you may hear the bell.
