I was looking for somewhere to lunch in the old dock area of Bilbao before catching the ferry home. I'd walked around the Getxo area and really liked it, I'd also noticed some possible restaurants to eat in. So I did some research and thought this looked like the best option, though several people said it was pricey. We ignored the a la carte menu, which I will agree, did look expensive and simply opted for the menu del dÃa at 18⬠each. You do need to ask for it, as it wasn't offered spontaneously, though it is written on the blackboard downstairs and was another of the reasons we chose this restaurant. For 18⬠you get a starter, main dish, dessert, bread and a bottle of wine between you. The food was delicious and in just the right quantities: I had a delicious tuna salad which was large enough for a main meal, complete with white asparagus, tomatoes and so on, followed up by escalopes in a port sauce and finished off with a Catalan cream. It really was excellent food. The only additional cost was coffee and tax of around 10%.The service was quirky: once seated, you are left to your own devices and gradually you realise that the waitress deals with a table completely, turning to the next table once she has put your order in. Everything happens very quickly after that! Once your plates are scooped up, you know the food is on its way! The waitress was in fact very helpful, sorting out an English translation of the menu del dÃa and explaining it. It also helped when another waitress arrived and things speeded up. I would most certainly eat here again, it's in a nice location and the interior of the restaurant is very attractive too.

This restaurant/bar is a five minute walk away from the Santurtzi metro stop. I asked the receptionist at our hotel to reserve it as my basic Spanish doesn't cope with telephone calls very well, although in mid May this wasn't necessary.The bar section serving great pinxtos was very busy when we arrived.It's not a modern Basque gastronomy restaurant but simply serves some of the best and freshest shellfish that I have ever eaten, gambas and cigallos especially so. The mixture of grilled fish was equally good. Add to that an immensely friendly welcome from Jose, hilarious broken conversations with the family dining next to us, and a really good value wine list - it was an excellent lunch.Senor Cheesecake says 'Muchas Gracias Jose'.

While the food here is pretty good, the service is mediocre accompanied by a little bit of snobbiness. They charge 9 euros for "bread service" for 5, whether you want it or not. On a positive note, you'll definitely get fresh fish, but not prepared on a par with what you expect from good Basque restaurants. Worth checking out if you're in the area. Prices are not unreasonable, but not a value either
