  we couldn’t get into any restaurant without a reservation in the pouring rain, so we stumbled upon this place, and it was perfectly fine. You walk up to the counter and just point at which top as you’d like, pick a glass or bottle of wine. Everything we had was delicious and the staff was able to describe what tapas was so there was no unwanted surprise. We enjoyed the sardine and the anchovy ones, ham croquettes, and the potato egg with ham and cheese the most. The prosciutto on baguette was too plain, didn’t like the mushroom ones, the crab with tomato or the pepper stuffed with cod. The ones with aged balsamic had a light sweetness and were nice for a dessert like bite. We also enjoyed a bottle of the 2020 RAMON BILBAO Rioja Riserve. We were grateful to be able to sit at a table. We didn’t realize that they also had warm dishes that were not on display, like a proper meal. Might come back and try that next time.

  Honestly I never leave reviews, but after seeing some of the negative reviews linked to this business I had to, I visited San Sebastián for four days and stumbled upon this place on my first day , the big guy behind the bar (never caught his name) was warm and welcoming and the pinxtos were some of our favourite we had. The tortilla was the best we had in San Sebastián and there was a really good selection of other pinxtos. Despite the reviews over price we never felt like the value for money wasn’t there. While in San Sebastián, we visited every day until we left and when we return I hope to see this business thriving and will definetly be returning.

  Super friendly staff (even under pressure handling 30+ group of tourists. Massive selection of carefully crafted pintxos - from morcilla through to anchovies with many variations of the classics as well. Super fresh (and refreshing). We also enjoyed the Keller beer (of which they have several massive tanks suspended from the ceiling. 4 pintxos and a couple of beers per person will set you up for an afternoon wandering about the Old Town.
