Top 10 Mediterranean food in Province of Vizcaya, Basque Country, Spain

October 6, 2019 Myesha Cogley

Find out what Mediterranean restaurants to try in Province of Vizcaya. Biscay (Basque: Bizkaia; Spanish: Vizcaya) is a province of Spain located just south of the Bay of Biscay. The name also refers to a historical territory of the Basque Country, heir of the ancient Lordship of Biscay. Its capital city is Bilbao. It is one of the most prosperous and important provinces of Spain as a result of the massive industrialization in the last years of the 19th century and first half of the 20th century. Since the deep deindustrialization of the 1970s, the economy has come to rely more on the services sector.

We were looking for a nice place for lunch in walking distance of the Guggenheim Bilbao when we saw this restaurant. It has a very serene and comfortable atmosphere, very nice staff. We ordered an iberico platter, roasted pork and pork secreto with asparagus. Perfect to our taste. Didn’t want to return for a second time only because there is so much more to try. But will revisit when in Bilbao next time. Thnx to the staff!

We were totally blown away by the excellence of this little restaurant. Its simplicity in decor adds to the charm and gives no clue as to the magic which we were subsequently served. We'd heard about "the broccoli" and tried it.... fantastic. Every dish was innovative and beautifully presented. No way was this a meal of style over substance - it was total style and unbeatable substance.Thank you again for an unforgettable meal.

We stopped in because of the great TA reviews and they were right on the money. We had fish stew, chicken teriyaki, and the roasted vegetable salad. They were great values, large portions, and fresh well presented ingredients. If you've never tried the patron peppers, then this is a great opportunity to give them a try. The owner and her family go out of the way to make your dining experience wonderful.

First of all, service is excellent. They really take time to make guests feel welcome and to explain the menu. We had the steak tartare, gyoza style dumplings, octopus, and the forest for dessert. Everything was tasty and well prepared. The dessert was absolutely beautiful! Also kudos for being flexible with portion sizing.

Not to be hyperbolic but this was one of the greatest experiences we’ve had anywhere. From the personable owners, Natalya and David (who have spent time in the US and speak perfect English-a big plus in Bilbao), to the fine moderately priced wine list, to their fresh locally-sourced food, to Pedro the amicable waiter, to the lively crowd of locals, this restaurant is superb in every way possible. We’re global travelers and this meal will live in our memories forever.

Being ranked No 1 in TripAdvisor can't be easy but after a few minutes, I totally understood why!!Don't be put off by the normal looking outside or unsmiling bar man (which I think was the owner). After a few minutes, he'll be explaining what the many tasty pintxos are & what wines he has, all in a patient & friendly manner.We had 7 amazing savoury pintxos (& we wanted to try so many more!) plus a cheesecake (which was amazing & light but just sweet enough), along with 3 red wines & an alcohol free beer. Imagine our utter amazement when the bill came to 14.80 EUR, I thought he must have calculated something wrong!! But no, that's how good value it is here.We're only in Bilbao for 5 days but I'll definitely be hoping we have time for another visit as the food was so tasty, the wines were so good & the service was spot on.Good morning SuzeyQ. Thank you very much for that wonderful description you make of your experience with us. From the heart, we are pleased to see that our effort bears fruit, and that you enjoy and make such a positive assessment of our products. Thank you for everything and we hope to see you here soon. Good trip and see you soon.

We had an amazing culinary experience. When we arrived we were given a glass of wine and entered a sort of "oasis" where we were presented with some amuse bouches in a picnic basket. Then we were brought into the kitchen where a few more tasty treats were prepared in front of us. After which we went into another area where we had 4 more experiences (spices, sea, flowers etc) with lovely presentation and explanations. Finally we were brought to our table where we had a lovely lunch. There was this white wine we tasted which is made by them and you can only drink it here. It was lovely (and for me it's hard to find a white wine I like) Worth going back just to have another taste! Staff was very friendly and professional and setting relaxing with lovely view. I strongly recommend giving this a try.

Sencillamente espectacular!! Trabajo en la zona y a pesar de pasar prácticamente todos los días por delante no había tenido el privilegio de ir a probar su menú. Este viernes teníamos cosas que celebrar y decidí celebrarlo con un menú del día del batzoki. Solo palabras buenas, atención soberbia!!! Camarero rubio simpático a mas no poder. El jefe también chapó!! Nos sirvió lo cafes y paso por la mesa para preguntar qué tal habíamos comido. La carne..... Buenísima, la ENSALADA GENIAL!! Me encanta conocer restaurantes nuevos y os diré que a este vuelvo seguro!! Bilbao me apasiona... Pero sus restaurantes más!!
