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.

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.

On apprécie le fait de voir ce qui se passe en cuisine, derrière le muret de briques orangées, ici rien à cacher, les produits ne sortent pas d'un congélateur ! les chipirons à l'espagnole sont tendres, l'axoa (hachis de veau au piment d'Espelette) est fait maison, et le chef suggère quelques spécialités dont il a le secret, tels ses filets de rouget au beurre blanc. Les portions sont copieuses. Une petite carte des vins attrayante avec des vins du cru.

I was here last night attracted by the very nice, traditional-looking ambiance…read more I want to say that the food was ok overall, couple of things were a little bit too greasy and needed a little bit more salt (to me) and the frites were soggy, the axoa was my favorite! We also had the tuna, sardines and the entrecôte which we ordered well done but was served undercooked, let's say medium rare. The presentation of the food was alright, nothing out of this world but let's keep in mind this is a traditional restaurant and honestly I wasn't expecting anything too The service was very mediocre, our waiter was very unfriendly and inattentive, coming to the table only when he happened to see us calling him. When we were ordering the desserts he didn't inform us about the dishes that were out, which were almost half of them, so every time we ordered something he would say they didn't have it. I'm giving this place three stars based on being told before that the meat is usually served rare around this area and hard to get it well done, so I'm going to omit this mistake.
