Per traditional basque dining, this place opens pretty late for dinner and on more popular days it's not a bad idea to get a reservation. It's not super touristy so don't expect anyone to speak English to you. It's not ideal for dining alone but it's doable and the owner is super nice.

This restaurant offered great value and was a fun place for a tourist to have a meal. Filled with…read morelocals,bustling with activity and serving fresh local meals.

Jesus, the owner, is an angel who knew Kid's name by her second visit, and from then on would shout out to her every morning as she came in and would get her a hot chocolate and a slice of tortilla without even needing to ask. It's that kind of place. In a town filled with bars, this one stands out.

And thus it was that we were lost, driving around Gernika, wondering how on earth we were going to find our friend. But we passed this little bar, and I thought maybe they could help us, and so Husband went in and with his very terrible Spanish tried to get help. THE NICEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD ARE AT THIS BAR. I want to shout it to the world. Everyone did everything they could to help us, including the customers. When they couldn't find our friend, they told us that if we couldn't find her that they would make sure we had a place to stay that night. We could not have asked for kinder people to happen across. Eventually we found our friends (by total chance), and we went back to the bar to buy everyone a round as thanks. The kalimotxos flowed and they gave Kid olives. Five stars for the kindness. Eskerrik asko!
