Just across the bridge from my hotel, I was so glad I found it here on Yelp. Besides good seating arrangements and nice decorations, the staff is also very friendly , although poorly English speaking. My Spanish is still a bit rusty :) I chose the paella with sea fruit. It was super delicious nom nom nom. Divine. Going back tomorrow scrumptious. Really.

The service is great (especially with my limited Spanish, thanks for being patient) restaurant is clean and has a very nice atmosphere. Very close to the Guggenheim. I would recommend Larruzz.

Rude, unprofessional and unfriendly. To begin with, the…read morewoman serving us was unwelcoming and barely said two words to anyone. We weren't shown to a table, and had to find our own place to sit. Of course, the table.we found was wobbly, which the staff did nothing to fix. As we were just finishing our drinks, suddenly the manager turned the music up to a painfully loud volume. When we asked what was happening, he simply said "cerrados" and pointed towards the door. I'm absolutely disgusted that a bar can hold this attitude towards its customers. The staff here act like it's the client's privilege to be there, and that you are something of an inconvenience. I'd only recommend coming here if you have masochistic tendencies, and enjoy being treated like dirt. One star is more than this place deserves.

Chicken was tender and flavorful and shrimp saganaki sauce was delicious with onions and peppers. Nice change from Pinxtos. Check it out.

Three big platters of iberico ham on top of crusty and crunchy bread, I pointed at that and said "cerveza." Easy, pleasy.

The classic tortilla made with egg, sliced potatoes, and lots of olive oil was juicy and succulent. The taco bonito was a rather dry but meaty chunk of tuna topped with chopped onions, tomatoes, and peppers, and plenty of olive oil. But the most unique pintxo I had came with two thick slices of creamy, melty brie cheese topped with a compote of mixed berries, and skewered with a mint leaf and a raspberry. Such a colorful melange of ingredients, and the sweetness of the berries had a nice contrast to the unctuous cheese!
