Had a lovely early lunch here. The place was busy but not packed, plenty of space upstairs. Staff were friendly. The food was tasty, but the wine list felt a bit limited for the quality of the dishes.

The terrace has a nice view of the city. It&#39;s a quiet place, good for a coffee. I was at the hospital nearby, so it was convenient to stop by.

The Pastel Vasco here is a must. I always get it for the quality of the ingredients, you can really taste the difference.

Been going here for years. It&#39;s a proper local place, not for tourists. The pinchos at the bar are always fresh and look the part. Staff are friendly, like they know you. Just a solid spot.

The tortillas here are the real deal. They&#39;ve got that perfect, slightly chewy texture and a deep corn flavor you just don&#39;t find everywhere. I always grab a dozen to go. The place is nothing fancy, but that&#39;s exactly the point.

Lovely terrace for a sunny day. Food is generous and well-presented. Prices are reasonable. Good spot for a business lunch near the office. Service was efficient.

Ravioli, costilla, and panna cotta. All good. But the portions for the price? Honestly, the ravioli plate was a bit small for what they charge. Felt a little short-changed on that one. The rest was fine.

The pintxos here are quite good. I really appreciate the freshness of the ingredients, especially the seafood. You can tell it&#39;s high quality. A solid choice on the main street, though there are other great spots in town too.

Love the vegan paella here! The saffron flavor was spot on, and the veggies had a nice bite. Service was friendly and quick. Parking is a bit of a hassle, but the spot itself is cool.

What a beautiful location and warm welcome. We were treated like special friends from the moment we arrived. Fantastic staff, nothing was too much trouble  beautiful ambiance &amp; gorgeous food. Delicious wine selection. I didn&#39;t want to leave.

Nice spot a bit out of town. The covered terrace is the real draw&mdash;you get this great view of the bay and the island. Food was solid, big portions. The desserts are homemade and really hit the spot. Service was friendly, no complaints. Parking was easy, which is a plus.

The octopus sandwich was huge! Honestly, one is enough for lunch. For the price in this neighborhood, the portion size really surprised me. I ended up taking half of it home.

Perfect spot on the square for people-watching with friends. The Iberico ham was totally worth it.

Found this spot thanks to a chef I admire. The croissants really stand out. They use proper French flour, and you get that rich, buttery taste without it feeling heavy or oily. Just a solid, well-made pastry.

Friendly service and a relaxed vibe. The staff was genuinely nice, lots of smiles. Good spot for a casual hangout.

Tucked away from the crowded pintxos places. We tried the goat cheese, bacon, and honey pizza. The sweet honey with the salty bacon and tangy cheese just worked perfectly. A lovely, quiet find.

Pintxos selection is huge. The baked foie and bacalao ajoarriero were standouts, made fresh to order. Service has that nice, traditional feel to it. Solid spot.

The gluten-free pintxos here are a game-changer for our group! So nice to find a spot where everyone can actually share plates.

That grilled octopus was something else. So tender it practically melted, with this perfect char on the outside. Honestly, I could have just ordered two plates of that and been happy. The steak was good too, but the octopus stole the show for me.

The waiter was so kind, took the time to explain the specials. Felt genuinely looked after, not just served. That kind of warmth is nice.

The cocktails were a nice surprise, honestly. Our waiter explained the ingredients well. For the price, they&#39;re a solid choice to end the meal with.

The tick-box menu was so helpful for ordering! I really appreciated being able to clearly see all the ingredients and customize my salad. Made the whole process smooth and stress-free.

Despite the higher prices in San Sebastian, the quality of food and service here makes it worth the visit. The anchovies are a must-try!

The staff was really nice and attentive. Had the grilled octopus, it was cooked just right, tender with a nice char. The patatas bravas were good too, crispy outside. A solid meal, nothing fancy but well done.

Crab arepa was the star. Just walked in for lunch, no reservation needed. Staff spoke English and Spanish which helped. That&#39;s it.

The salmon pinxcho was the standout. Perfectly cooked, the filling was really flavourful. Staff were attentive without being overbearing. A solid spot for a casual bite.
