A local suggested Kako Etxea for a Friday night dinner with friends. The ambiance is woody warm and cozy with an amber glow and amazing brocante finds adorning the walls. The staff is a terrific friendly bunch of handsome Basque boys that were super accommodating, happy to make suggestions for dining options and wine as well as accommodating to the vegan in the group.Each plate we ordered was delicious, copious and well presented. Everything served to the tables around us looked 5 star too. Donât miss the homemade fries, the grilled squid and the daily specials. We were so happy at the Kako even we ducked in for an equally fantastic lunch before our departure too.See you again someday Kako Etxea and super happy the snotty CHEZ MATTIN was all booked so we got to dine with you.

Went here and opted for the daily set menu - terrific value, lovely food and for only 16euro!!!The menu was easy to understand and had choices. Being a coeliac didn't present any issues either. The superb waiter explained they had no gluten free bread but I could have a choice of the meals. We started with gazpacho soup which was home-made and absolutely lovely. Our next course was warm Serrano ham. Main was a good size steak and chips, both lovely. We finished with gorgeous ice cream and a decent cup of coffee.The restaurant owner is full of character and the place is down a quiet back street and has been there for many years, being family-owned. Looks like the emphasis is on a small good set menu. Everything home made and very nice. Would definitely visit here again and highly recommend for straight forward tasty food.

Monday's in late September is a hard evening as most restaurants are/were closed. We asked the owner of our hotel for advice, and he booked us a table at Pil-Pil Enea. We were supremely happy with the choice! The restaurant, in typical French style, looks rather shabby from the outside, but in a good way. (Our experience in France has been that the more expensive a restaurant looks, the worse is the food.)Had a local cocktail as an aperitif recommended from the waiter - cherry liquor with cider, apparently typical Basque. Starter was a shared shrimp dish, which was certainly enough for two. Main course was the hake for two - wonderful! One of the best fish meals I've had. Wine was a local wine, a tad expensive but worth it.All-in-all, fantastic and highly recommended!

Service is haphazard - some of the staff here do know what they are doing, but the rest haven't a clue.The Cote de Boeuf is their best dish, but the other mains tried by our party were not very good.

Very smart inside and out. Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Large choice of drinks that were quickly served even when busy. Great choice of tapas style dishes. We particularly enjoyed the brochette de boeuf with bearnaise sauce and gambas dishes. Sardines was tasty but unusually served in the tin, very novel. Highly recommended and will be our first choice if we return.

frederic grobost Chef and Owner of the Xaya offers a generous and delicious cuisine made with fresh seasonal products. Seafood from the fish market located close to the restaurant, small producers across the Halles or selected meat of the Basque Country "

Having been here many times for lunch and really enjoyed it, we tried coming in the evening recently and tried the pintxos menu (unavailable at lunchtime) which contains a number of delights including the excellent wake me salad and the equally good squid with black ink orzo. The staff were as charming and attentive as ever.

If you are looking for a great selection of local fresh fish and meat dishes, Luz Del Sur is a great choiceRecommend their artichokes as an appetiser. Wow delicious!For mains - we had Louverie fish and fresh chiprones (calamari). The kids had Bigore noir (local pig), duck confit and stew. The chiprones were perfect. Fresh, tender, flavourful. I tried my sonâs Bigore Noir and hope to return to order that dish. It was amazing.

This restaurant had good ambiance, very friendly staff (funny and a little flirty) and great food! Calamari was so good and I'm not a big fan of seafood. My cod meal was quite tasty. The profiteroles were HUGE. Perhaps I'm not used to that dessert being that size but WOW. Dessert lovers will not be disappointed. Great place for dinner in this lovely city.

A very French family oriented restaurant, serving fantastic and good value seafood. Our group had the sole and the cod for two and both dishes were excellent. Itâs not haute cuisine, and the mains come without fancy accompaniment, but the quality of the ingredients and the cooking were right on the mark. Some excellent and good value wines too.

Bakar, una comida tradicional, delicias locales y alguna especialidad del chef, ideal para picar y comer en buen ambiente y con una estupenda terraza. Todos los viernes se hacen comidas temáticas, se prepara alguna especialidad de algún paÃs del mundo.

A culinary experience would not be complete without the perfect ambiance and atmosphere of the restaurant, and this is what Bakar Restaurante was offering me throughout my journey into Irun, Spain for the New Yearâs Eve of 2019. The restaurant is beautifully designed, it gives a homey feeling and the space just before the dining place allows visitors to dance and enjoy the dinner time with their lovely ones and families; and this is exactly what I did after the service for New Yearâs Eve dinner was finished. People were dancing and enjoying their time and the staffs of the restaurant were also joining us in the dance floor, William, the lovely head chef was dancing together with the others as we are singing and enjoying the traditional Spanish celebration way of eating grapes. The bartender, together with the head chef was also playing some groovy music to get the people to dance and mingle, ah.. did I say that William is a down-to-earth person who is lovely and is caring about the opinions of everyone about their experience starting from the point when they stepped into the restaurant until the end of the night? (morning, actually, we finished at around 5 in the morning). All in all, it was a very exhilarating experience from the start until the end; the savory and beautifully served food, the perfect ambiance and the lovely staffs. Would definitely come back again if I have the chance to travel back to the Basque country!
