    To our surprise they had a special staircase elevator for a wheelchair. So going down to the restaurant was easy. The reception and help of the personnel was very good. A good atmosphere in the restaurant, good advise on menu and wine. The food was well prepared and lovely taste.

    We came here last Friday with a group of 15 people to try pinxtos. Despite the crowds at Aste Nagusia, we were served quickly, correctly and courteously. We took a mix of 30 pinxtos and although we did not always know what we were eating, everything tasted delicious. Afterwards, we enjoyed some more croquettes, Iberico ham and cheese, all accompanied by delicious white wine. We found the experience so enjoyable that on Sunday we reserved a table to eat a la carte. Once again, everyone enjoyed themselves! Small minus point: the dark bathrooms. Plus: the friendly service, who also spoke fluent English. My recommendation? You should all visit this place!

    I would avoid this place at all costs. I don’t know how they have high ratings on Google Maps. I first read about this place as it was featured in at a website but the place was more than a disappointment. The food was terrible. They felt not fresh at all and tastes either too salty or flavourless. The worst part of the bar is their sittings. Their chairs are extremely wobbly and unstable. At least 10 of them were broken but they didn’t bother to fix the chairs. It is hazardous for customers. One chair in particular is really wobbly and it’s right next to a set of staircase. If you tip over, you will be seriously injured. The washroom is also ridiculous. They don’t actually have a proper sink. As seen in the photo, there is a big bathtub full of dirty water and a faucet above for you to wash your hands.

    Nice place with good food and competent service. Very noisy in the bar, but downstairs in the restaurant very comfortable.
