Honestly the best oyster I've eaten in all my life. And for cheaper than some other places. Had two…read moreglasses of excellent tzakoli and 6 oysters and maybe could have stayed for another 6. Not a huge place but then again it doesn't need to be. You don't need to hang out for forever and eat oysters you can kind of slurp them down and bolt. Which it seems like is the right thing to do either way. People are waiting and it's hard to blame them - the food is outstanding.

I was just exploring the city and this little shop caught my eye. It was very modern and updated…read moreand tucked away so perfectly. I love oysters!! So this was a perfect little appetizer for dinner. Since dinner is usually served at 9pm this was perfect to curve my appetite. They have oysters from france, portugal, and iranaia. I have never had oysters from those waters so I needed to try it. And I am glad I did. The gentleman at the counter did speak english so I was able to tell him how I like my oysters. I told him I usually like them briney but didn't mind trying some sweet ones. He came out with my flight of oysters and labeled them so I knew which were which. He told me to try them from most sweet to briney. I ended up liking the sweet one better. My favortie was the regal irania! I ordered 2 more after I finished my flight.

I was looking for a place with a good fish soup and my hotel recommended this place. I went in with…read moreno reservations and got a table right away. The restaurant has a few tables and many were empty. The waitress an older lady brings me the menu and I ordered water because I was taking an antibiotic. When she takes my order I told her I would like the soup only and dessert possibly coffee. This lady started lecturing me that I can't come to this restaurant and only order soup, that she had to work and ordering just soup was not done that it's common sense that you just can't order soup. The menu was à la carte. It was not a pre-fixed three course menu it was à la carte. I told her I didn't know but she really upset me. She made me feel like a child and I'm a 60 year-old woman that has traveled the world people like her should not be dealing with customers,that said the soup was good. Didn't have a lot of fish, but it was good. The ambience was good with white tablecloths, but the service that this lady gave me will never be forgotten because I have never been treated so poorly she raised her voice at me like if I was a child for that reason I do not recommend this restaurant.

Michelin Star Rated Seafood:…read more Been traveling all over Spain and this is the first place in 7 days that actually knows what spices are and EXACTLY how to use them. The food is excellent, the service was welcoming (I believe the owner even helped us out), and the whole restaurant was calm with relaxing ambiance. 10/10 would go again and will recommend to all I can. Probably will have dinner again here every night until I leave in a week. A little pricey, but definitely not skimpy in any of the portion sizes. I recommend the soup starter, the prawns or clams as a main, and the rice pudding or Valencia to end. (Get a bottle of Santiago if you can too.)

One of those incredible dining experiences that leaves you with a glow…read more We were lucky to get a seat without reservations, right next to a window looking into the kitchen, so we got to watch the work behind the magic. After a couple minutes of struggle, the wait staff printed a copy of the menu in English for us. It ended up just being a road map, because we chose the 6 course chef's menu, and we were so glad we did. From the miso/jamon shooter as an appetitive, through starters like cuttlefish salad and marinated mackerel, ending in incredible main courses like a sou vide cod on cauliflower purée or the pork shoulder.... Each course was better than the last. Only two negatives... The dessert was a bit of a miss. A lemon meringue, the custard was to tart, and the almond cookie crust too salty. Also, the pace of dining was a bit rushed, and not the leisurely experience we've come to love about Spain. But those both were small complaints next to the wonderful dinner and incredible service. If you're in Bilbao, you must try this place.
