Found this tapas bar and were not disappointed. It's small, but mighty in flavor. They had so many tapas to choose from! The food was fresh and very tasty. What to do if you are only eating tofu, and not in the back formal restaurant: Maybe grab a seat first because it gets crowded in there. Pick up a plate Pick your tapas Make sure you leave the toothpicks on the plate so they know how much to charge you when you're finished. There was a woman standing on the guest side of the bar whom you may think is just one of the customers, but she will answer any questions and make sure you get the drinks you want --including sangria. Just be aware that the drinks may cost as much as your tapas! Enjoy and have fun!

The two bartenders -- who seem to be a couple -- are the heart of the place. He's got a dry, hilarious sense of humor that sets the tone, and together they make everyone feel like a regular. That said, if you're easily offended or don't appreciate a bit of cheeky banter, this might not be your spot. But for those who enjoy a fun, unfiltered vibe -- you'll love it here. As for the food -- wow. We had the tortilla with meat (not sure what it was, but it was delicious), the artichoke tempura (I would fly across the world again just for these), the fried eggplant, and the meat with chimichurri. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Great food, unforgettable personalities, and a place that feels alive. Take a handheld fan because it is hot - especially during summer.

TLDR: COME FOR THE PINTXOS. HARD PASS ON THE MENU. Pintxos are self-serve at the bar. Once you're…read moredone eating, check out with the waiter--they'll count and charge you per toothpick. NGL, I'm someone who gets overwhelmed and gets tunnel vision. I'm a sheep following the shepherd-- in this case, if you throw your body & a menu in front of me, I'll easily walk in. I'd seen great reviews online about their namesake pintxos, but the menu had so many options and none that clicked with what I was looking for. I was hungry, so I sent it and ordered a few items from the classic tapas: the Squid in Ink Croquette and the Patatas Bravas. The croquette was incredible and so flavorful, while the Patatas Bravas were the complete opposite. The potatoes tasted bland and stale, and the sauce on top was just... meh. I hated how let down I was!! As I was finishing up my meal, I noticed a few people coming in and were sitting at the bar--not usually the most go-to spot when there are plenty of tables open. However, as soon as they sat down, they began grabbing items from the display. I went to check it out and lo and behold--PINTXOS!!! I asked my waiter, and he explained the process: pick what you want, enjoy and pay for what charge you grab at the end. And honestly? They looked and tasted so much better and were way more affordable than what I ordered!! Disappointed I spent so much money, but consider this a lesson for anyone reading!

The sangria was huge and way more than I needed. Definitely a size to share or if you plan on having a lot alone.

It's right in the heart or a touristy spot but still I found the food pretty fairly priced and great quality. I believe the tapas were 1,70€ each. A great deal in my opinion

Not a bad atmosphere but nothing special; quiet on a mid-afternoon during the week. Meh: Service was semi-welcoming to a solo traveler. No!: I was looking for a small glass of wine and the server sold me a sangria, which was the ONLY item with the price not published. The wine was all priced inexpensively, and the sangria was three times as much and only came in a HUGE goblet. I only drank about a third of it and it was strong! He completely ignored my request for "something small" and it felt like a game of Rip Off the Stupid Tourist. Ah well... ...
