As we were seated at our table I felt like a queen. Never had I experienced service like this. I took a look at the tasting menu (which I had originally planned to do) but none of the dishes caught my fancy. I hemmed and hawed at what to order and finally ended up with....the tasting menu. When in Madrid.... This is one of my favorite meals of all time and may be one of the less wordy of the bunch ("maybe", I haven't finished yet). A dish by dish review is not necessary and cannot give justice to the umami that the night unfolded. With each tasting set before me, I kept asking myself - how can you put so much goodness in such a small little dish? For example, one of my favorites of the night was shellfish to the royal with fennel flavour. Shellfish to what? and fennel... not a fan of fennel. Have you ever had something so good that you want to close your eyes and just take it all in with only your tastebuds? This frothy little portion had layers of flavor you couldn't imagine. A few of which I was able to guess correctly as uni and lobster (pat myself on the back). I loved it all. Each dish in and of itself was uniquely astonishing in its own way. To hit on a couple other surprises - the mashed potatoes were the jam. They were a runny thick consistency and when I asked what made them so good, the waitress answered "lots of butter". The cheesecake was like no other cheesecake. So good that it called for an additional order to close out the night. The wines (recommended by the sommelier) were less expensive than any red wines sold in US restaurants (even the cheaper US brands). I was wined and dined - an experience I can't explain other than using the word amazing. Which by the way, I need to find a better word because it was actually better than amazing.

This little deserves all your attention. I wish there was a 6th star for the special places…read more Poteak is located in the Tribord headquarters. They have a lot of delicious dishes that are all in pots. It could be hot (axoa, pasta, fish, etc.) that you need to put in the microwave or cold (a lot of different great salads and sandwich). If you come in the morning you can even order your own salad or sandwich by choosing between 15 or 20 different ingredients and it will be ready by the time you decide. Very clever! The desserts are to die for, especially pêche melba and their basque cake. People told me that their chocolate basque cake is just perfection, I can't confirm, I don't like chocolate ^^ They also have couple of tables right by the sea and above the building where you can enjoy the sun. As George could tell: What Else?

We were very happy to find this restaurant as there was not many places in Guethary which was serving food past 3pm! The team was very nice and friendly. My dish was succulent, half a breast duck served with corn mash and sweet potatoes fries and an orange sauce with espelette pepper. The only disappointment of the meal was the Basque cider : Errekalde which was recommended by the team, its taste was horrible.

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.
