The downstairs bar is typical of the area but upstairs is a simple, comfortable, restaurant area. The extensive vegetarian menu includes local dishes produced with vegetarian ingredients. Highly recommend for visiting vegetarians in Santander who are bored of picking meat out of the local cuisine!

For vegans that aren't fans of faux meats, many of the dishes do have them. My daughter got the soy stew, and didn't like the soy as it was too real of a meat texture. I found it very tasty. I really liked the croquettes. The seitan sausage dish was much too salty for me.

Everything was simply amazing! Beautiful with great textures and flvaors. A work of art and such a fun experience. On another visit I tried their vegan schnitzel sandwich with mustard that was delicious but less creative and pretty than the pintxos :) Counter service, at least when I was here. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite!

The food is ok, it's a vegan restaurant if you are looking for vegan options, but the staff is…read morereally bad... I waited over 10 min to get my order in, especially when I had already talked to the waiter on the way in, asking about the Menu del Dia. As I got served, the food was ok...I got the whole fish and it was a bit bland....when it was time for dessert, they gave me a few options and I picked one....but then the waiter asked me if I wanted coffee or tea...I asked, is it included in the Menu del Dia...he did not say anything, just kind of nodded.... I got a green tea. When it was time to pay, I was charged 15.20 euros....I said, I thought the menu was 13.50...then he said, but you got a tea.... I said, I asked you if it was included and that is why I got it....I usually don't drink tea anyway.... So, they kind of cheated on a customer by trying to get more revenue. Not good...

We came here on a whim without checking reviews first (very uncommon for us) but were surprised…read morewith how great our experience was, especially compared to the low reviews we saw afterwards! If you're set on ordering a super authentic Spanish meal, this would not be the place for you. With that being said, we thought the food was fantastic--I highly suggest the chicken curry and bacon burger--and the atmosphere was one of our favorites of our time in Spain. Kind of a farm chic feel (if that's even a thing). Great, cheap red wine and their desserts were to DIE for. I'm not even a dessert person, but order the dulce de leche crepe if you want your life forever changed. Also, I don't like cheesecake, but the Oreo cheesecake was a huge favorite among my family. They said it was their favorite cheesecake they've had in Spain and they've had several. For the most part, the servers spoke English and also had an English menu available, which were great bonuses for my family who doesn't speak much Spanish. The staff were not overly friendly, but they weren't difficult either. The bathrooms were super clean and functional. We loved our experience here and look forward to coming back!

This place was totally disappointing. As a vegan I was looking forward to gazpacho and hummus but…read morethe gazpacho was mediocre and the hummus was tasteless. Finally ordered the fruit salad for dessert and they were out. It was a weekend so the meal was prix fixe at €15 and they wouldn't budge even though I received only a tasteless fraction of what one would ordinarily get for that price. There are so many other wonderful restaurants in Bilbao so skip this one!

Yelp says they open at 12pm but they actually open at 1 so be mindful when you come. Pepperoni pizza was great with a tiny bit of spice to it however I think it's a tiny bit too salty for my liking. The seafood pasta was also delicious but also a bit salty for my US taste buds. You can ask for less salt. It I forgot that day. The lady that served us was super nice and tried her best to take out orders in English. Over all not bad do definitely recommend this place.

The place is clean and modern looking with a beautiful chalkboard and a friendly waiter who was happy to accommodate our late-night drunken and broken Spanish. We had delicious and piping hot croquettes with a creamy interior spiked with salty ham. Their anchovies were standard but really delicious. Finally, at the bartender's recommendation, we had some Morcilla (blood sausage) with a lovely creamy puree. There is so much amazing food in Bilbao, it's sometimes hard to choose where to go to get your fix. In this case, Ad Hoc's unusually extended hours made the decision for us and i'm really happy they did!!
