This restaurant has been many years in the town. Despite the number of customers declining since they opened, the quality remains the same. I believe that the decrease is due to the current economic situation and that it is not anymore a "new" restaurant. What I mean with this is that people are not telling anymore "let´s go and try it" as they have been there already. I have the feeling that they could increase the number of customers they get if they changed their menu, as they have mostly been offering the same meal options all the time they've been open.The fixed menu has 4 courses with a very competitive price. As starters, there are 2 salads or juice. The next course consist in 2 different soups or gazpacho.. While The main course is the third on the list, but trust me, you will be quite satisfied before having it.. To end, you will have quite large variety to choose the dessert.This time I chose a salad, gazpacho, veggie stuffed peppers with spicy sauce and corn custard (those are awesome...)It is one of the best rooms to enjoy a dinner in that I can think of.

We visited to take a drink and some pintxos, due to the weather being unseasonably warm,the restaurant was busy, & it was after the traditional lunch service time.We waited at a table on the terrace and were ignored, therefore went inside to order at the bar, again we were ignored and no-one to serve us. Once I caught the eye of a waiter, I was snapped at by a very rude bald headed waiter,"the restaurant diners come first". Eventually got served and had very nice Pintxos, had to ask for ice for one drink and got rolling eyes treatment. Won't be returning & have a very big family living in Santurtzi,whom I'm assured won't be returning.

This probably isn't in any tourist guide yet as it's in a suburb of Bilbao, but easily accessible from the metro and easy to find as it's in the main square. I went with a group to celebrate a friend's birthday and I was absolutely blown away by the quality of the food, the price and the service. I'm sure if we'd eaten that quality of innovative food anywhere in the centre of Bilbao it would have cost at least 3 times more. We had the tasting menu and the wonderful variety of dishes just kept coming and coming. Some surprising for their original mix of flavours, but all of them of exceptional quality. The staff were really friendly and efficient, giving explanations of all the dishes. I can't recommend it more highly as it was one of the best meals I've ever had and I'll be going back as soon as I can!

From the very beginning on the phone we noticed the good servive of the restaurant. Little details make sometimes the difference. We request a table looking to the window in order to admire the view of El Abra,thank you John. It was a nice surprise when we arrived, they had prepared the best seating for us. We enjoyed the daily menu of 18,50â¬, water and a bottle of wine for 2 was included, added to a complimentary croquete, starter , main course and dessert. High quality product and a tasteful presentation in every dish. Great place to celebrate and relax.Thank you so much Adirane for your comment, hoping to see you back again, have a nice day.

What a marvelous restaurant! We visited Bilbao for a wedding which then held their reception at this really nice spot. Right on Bilbaoâs beach with gorgeous sunsets most nights, this restaurant excels in providing yummy, exquisite food. Over three days, we ate a late lunch and a dinner in the dining room, and then were treated to a 6-course feast at the wedding reception. Every meal, every item served was well prepared, presented nicely, and was wonderfully tasty. We are planning a cruise that will see us in Bilbao next spring and we WILL eat here again! If you have the option for a place to eat in the area surrounding Bilbao, choosing Tamarises Izarra will make you very happy!

We went for lunch. Most restaurants in Europe have menus in English in addition to their native menus. This one did not. We lost a little in the translation. Any small substitutions we asked for were met by the waitress saying "it would be too difficult". So we ended up with some weird concoctions. It was very basic inside too. weill not be back to this one.

We were visiting the basketball woldcup in Bilbao at the expo center. Due to the crowds there was limited possibility to find good food but Sikera was a great catch. Sikera was good choise for both fathers and teenage sons. Local food, good service and affordable prices. Espesially good memories about Belota ham and nice sommelier Nerea.

After reading the other reviews on Trip Advisor we decided to give Pulcinella a try. We walked 1.25 miles to the location shown on the map on Trip Advisor and on the restaurants own web site only to find it wasn't there. We eventually discovered it was within 100m of where we had started, close to the Puente Colgante. We never got to try the food as the waiter was so rude and unhelpful that we walked out half way through ordering. We will never go there again.

We took a day trip out of Bilbao and stopped at this place after reading TripAdvisor reviews. It is just a neighbourhood bar but the food was great. There are pintxos for â¬1 on the bar but we went for raciones including delicious and perfectly cooked solomillo and lovely muscles cabredos in a spicy sauce. A real surprise and highly recommended.
