    • Art'zain, a restaurant where the terroir is at the center of the cuisine in the Basque Country

      Locavores, this is a term that perfectly defines Henri, Alexandra and their team, gastronomy enthusiasts who love to take your taste buds on a journey at any time of the year. Located in Irissarry, a charming village 20 minutes from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port and 40 minutes from Bayonne, the Art'zain restaurant welcomes you for lunch and dinner from Wednesday to Saturday, and for lunch on Sunday. Book and take the time, the time of the moment…

      Art'zain, local cuisine to simply taste in the Basque Country

      Originally from Macaye, it was quite natural for Henri Amestoy to return to settle in the Basque Country after traveling across France. After

      Some work with local artisans, the Art'zain restaurant opened its doors in 2016 in a magnificent residence made of stone and exposed beams.

      You will be welcomed in a warm and friendly atmosphere, in the “Maison” of Henri and Alexandra.

      Sit in a refined and elegant room with woody notes, to enjoy authentic cuisine made from fresh and of course local products. The terroir is highlighted through personalized recipes, offered à la carte or in the form of a menu including the Iratzea menu where you will let yourself be carried away. Surrounded by local producers, the cooks adapt to nature and change the menu approximately every 6 weeks depending on the seasons and production. Color, flavor and pleasure, this is the perfect combination brought together in the refined dishes served at Art'Zain.

      Art'Zain, a passion shared by professionals with big hearts in Irissarry

      Cooking is more than a passion for Henri and Alexandra, it represents their values and expresses their pleasure in welcoming you in a restaurant as at home. Art for the art of receiving, zain which means guardian in Basque and art'zain for the term shepherd, a tribute to the father of the chef Henri Amestoy, this is a beautiful definition for these two lovers of the Basque Country. The cuisine of the chef and his passionate and talented team is even rewarded with a Bib Gourmand and a green star ( sustainable gastronomy) in the 2024 Michelin Guide, as well as the Vignoble & Découverte label encourages their promotion of the Irouléguy vineyard. Take the time to enjoy a moment of pleasure at the Art'zain restaurant.
