We had the garlic bread, which was great (we would have loved a little bit more olive oil, but that's being picky!), we also had some gambas (shrimps) with garlic seasoning, they were perfectly cooked! We also tasted their " patatas bravas " which is a typical Spanish tapas and they were great too, the sauce was really good. Would recommend trying out!

On top of that, the wines by the glass are all hand selected by the owner, Arnaud, and are excellent. Large selection of French and International wines, and the coolest and best vibe in town.

When in France, do as spanish do!…read more During our trip to Bordeaux we met this recently opened restaurant, there is a shop and a restaurant one next to each other. We first went to the shop and bought some charcuterie, in particular a mixed plate for raclette and some patanegra (not enough unfortunately!). Sausage and ham were just great, but patanegra was WOOOO! mind blowing! The restaurant, well it was a bit awkward at first, we got in and... nobody was there! well.. ok! We just sat down and waited a bit, and a guy finally showed up at the counter. We ordered the special mix menu, including charcuterie, tapas and a hot dish. We already knew charcuterie would have been awesome. as we already tried it at the shop, and we were not disappointed, not at all! and tapas, oh my god tapas! I did not remember last time I ate tapas so tasteful! nothing fancy, plaid tapas (like bell peppers and squid), as I expected from a place like this, and it was awesome! Suggested suggested suggested, nice place, nice food, nice wines! A nice pause from french cuisine with an excursion to the land of bulls!

The coffee wasn't as good as I've had another places, and I asked for a Caliente pitxo, which is supposed to be made fresh. He however, folded from under the bar and it was barely lukewarm. Only good part was it had nice flavoring. It's a small space with standing room only, but has a WC.

Just beautiful peppers, amazing fresh bread, blood sausage, and other sausages. Made fresh in-house and served by a couple of older gentlemen who could not possibly have been sweeter to me and my wife. It's the sort of spot where, when you're finished with your pinchos, you toss the wrappers and napkins on the floor and head out. I absolutely loved the vibe in here. As low-key as it could possibly get. The pace is unhurried, but the food reaches you quickly, and you will be blown away by the quality of the sausages, the peppers, the olives, the cheeses, the anchovies and sardines, and all the other basics done so flawlessly that you'll want to come back again and again. A special request for blood sausage was happily honored despite it needing to be stuffed and cut fresh. A perfect place to begin your Donostia journey, because you'll get Basque food as it is, not a fusion or an elevated reinterpretation. Plenty of places in the Old Town do modern takes very well, but this is the fundamentals, executed with perfection.

Watching the square come alive in the evening while dining beneath the illuminated basilica made for a memorable experience. We ordered several pintxos to share, and every dish was excellent. The standout was the Carrillera (slow-braised beef cheek with mashed potatoes), which was incredibly tender, rich, and comforting. The Platillo de Bonito with tuna, anchovies, green peppers, and olives was fresh and full of classic Basque flavors. The Panceta (pork belly) was another highlight, perfectly crisp on the outside and meltingly tender inside. We also loved the creamy Croqueta de Jamón Ibérico, and the Bacalao Confitado con Pil Pil de Piquillos was beautifully cooked, with delicate cod and a silky piquillo pepper pil pil sauce. We couldn't resist trying the Pintxo Especial as well, and it was a great addition to the meal. The staff were warm and accommodating, helping us get a table outside and making us feel welcome throughout the evening. Inside, the restaurant has a lively, authentic Basque atmosphere, but the outdoor seating overlooking one of San Sebastián's most iconic churches makes the experience even more special. If you're looking for traditional Basque pintxos in a fantastic location, Atari is an easy recommendation. We'd happily come back on our next visit.

We opted for a few pintxos for lunch while we were visiting town. We also had a couple of drinks my husband got whiskey with coke and I asked for a local cocktail since I'm not much of a wine drinker. I was handed a cup of pacharán which was a bit strong but was nice to try something different. The pintxos came out one at a time which was nice we were able to fully enjoy each on their own. The bao was the only one I didn't really like mostly the bun part. It didn't taste like it was cooked all the way and was a bit gummy and there was not a lot of meat filling. Next was the lamb which was really tender and flavorful. The couscous was ok nothing special and not much seasoning to it. Then the beef cheek and mashed potatoes came out which was the star of the pintxos that we had. It was also very tender and the mash was also cooked perfectly. All of this was shared between the two of us and was very filling. The waiter let us know that some of the pinxtos could also be ordered in a full size if we wanted. We enjoyed sampling the pinxtos and would definitely recommend coming here to get a taste of local cuisine.
