Coming from dinner at tre star Arzak the night before, we were a bit worried we would be blassé, but it turned out that a lunch package at Briketenia that has one Guide Michelin star almost impressed us more. The price for a lunch during weekdays is 35EUR and this is what we got. Beautiful and tasty appetizers, a very French gazpacho served in a martini glass, the first course (I chose calamares), the main course (I chose a fish), - they offered us cheese here but we said no to save room -, the dessert and then some candy on sticks and last but not least some frozen candy on a stick. I was very happy with the flavors and the wine and champagne were also very reasonably priced. All in all, we loved this place. It might have been a little stiff, but the main hostess was super friendly and made up for all of that. Martin Ibarboure is the brother of the owner of the other one star restaurant this little picturesque surf village holds; Les Frères Ibarboure.

Michelin-star quality food, from start to finish, and excellent service. I had the zucchini flower, steak, and strawberry dessert. My husband had the foie gras, fish, pigeon, and peach dessert. Everything was exceptional. The terrace also has a lovely view of the mountains, and big umbrellas to shield you from the sun. Highly recommend!

Turned out the service was quite attentive and the food not bad. There is an English menu available, and the staffs speak good enough English. Very good value In my opinion. For example I had a mussel with fries, home-made foie gras and two beers - all came to only US$30. They also accept credit card, and free Wi-Fi!

Shaded and steps from the beach with views of the water depending on where you are sitting. Went with the 3 cheese pizza and a few beers to finish up the travel day. Pizza was thin crust, mozzarella, goat cheese, and gorgonzola with a few walnuts on top. Food came out fast and service was good. Come for the great patio with views of the beach and solid people watching

Ok this is a busy lunch spot so you may have to be patient to be able to order and get your food…read morebut the wait is well worth it. The place is often packed with standing room only by the bar. They have a few tables and consider yourself lucky if you manage to get one without reservation. The highlight here is an extensive wine list, quite expensive patron wine list or much more affordable yet excellent every day wine by the glass, pichet or bottle. As far as the food goes, you can go tapas style or regular a la carte appetizers and entrees. All the food we ordered was excellent especially the calamars and the andouillette. We appreciated the quality of the white wine pichet. Overall a good address just be ready for the crowd, high noise level and service on the slow side.
