    Amazing. With no doubt a place you should try if you are in Bilbao. A mix of great traditional “standard” dishes like a risotto, with some re-interpreted dishes like the different way of serving the Beijing duck. Just let your waiter know what you like (or don’t like) and let them build a menu for you. I’ll come back for sure. Edit: I finally came back after a while... this is for sure the BEST restaurant in Bilbao at the moment. Just talk with the maître and let him recommend you the dishes depending on your preferences. I would personally recommend to split and try as many dishes as possible. Fantastic.

    The portion recommendation and the dishes recommended were on point! Delicious creative food, the seafood was mind-blowing! The duck was good but unfortunately not peking grade of crispy skin! Otherwise the squid dumplings with the seaweed sauce were out of this world and the octopus dish is one of the best I've ever tasted! Outstanding flavour blending and wonderful service!

    Recommended as best restaurant in Bilbao and it was a great choice, with a superb service. Pics for foie and vieira.

    A relative recommended it and I must admit it was the best recommendation ever! It blends traditional cuisine with brand new and original recipes such as its “Rainforest” dessert where they mix mascarpone with apple ice cream, chocolate sand, white chocolate rock, berries, flowers, mint and pistachio moss. Its octopus with spicy mayonnaise, tuna tatami or artichokes over an Iberian mayonnaise are also an amazing choice. I loved it! And of course, I totally recommend it to anyone nearby. Do take into account you would need to book since it is usually quite packed. Their cook and service are really nice, welcoming and always pay attention to what you demand, they want to make sure your experience there is the best one you can get and do recommend you to order less if you are ordering way too much food!

    Great dining experience. Our reservation was canceled and we found this restaurant last minute. Staff members were very friendly, and the restaurant looked rather modern and cozy inside. When we were ordering our food, the waitress was kind enough to remind us that it was too much. And it turned out she was right! We didn’t over order and had a great evening there. We even went back the next evening as I had reservation for that evening😊.

    A great experience, one of the best restaurants we visited in Bilbao. The quality and flavours of menu were wonderful, combined with a just the right level of 'theatre' when serving. The staff were all so welcoming, and attentive, combined with the relaxed atmosphere meant that it was not pretentious at all. Would happily visit again.

    Some of the best dining experiences we have had in years. Wonderful flavors, great wine and the best service.

  • 4/5 Nicole T. 2 years ago on Google
    The restaurant had a really nice vibe and great service. The waiter gave us excellent recommendations on portions which prevented us from over ordering. I also liked the creativity put into the food. Tomato salad: really fantastic. It was the best tomato salad I have had before Squid ink fideua: I thought this was very tasty but a bit too wet Steak pincaha: Part of the steak was a little chewy, but overall had great flavour. I really liked the peppers and potatoes as well. We had the forest for dessert, which I didn't really enjoy as I thought that there was too much mascaporne cream. The green apple sorbet was fantastic though! Overall would recommend, as the food is great and good value. I would have liked to give it a 4.5 but there's no option on Google!

    Fabulous food by fabulous people. They will advice you in what to order and it's worth following their instructions, they know their menu and will adapt dishes to you and how many you are.

  • 5/5 Анатолий �. 4 years ago on Google
    Incredible place! Restaurant provide high level of food and service! After I get my dish chef came and ask if everything good. You can feel this atmosphere when people doing something not because of money, they are providing so good food because of passion and love of their job! Highly recommend this restaurant! P.S this restaurant provide so good pekin duck (free style of preparation) that’s even better than in the 90 % of Chinese restaurant!!

    A great dining experience - we loved the concept of sharing plates, the explanations of esch of the dishes by Diego & the staff, the explosions of different tastes & textures... Special mention of the outstanding steak tartare and the kofta as well as the bread selection and the house wine. What was just called "assortment of ice creams" on the menu turned out to be a fun flavour guessing game that provided the perfect ending to an outstanding evening. I would highly recommend this place to anyone!

    Place is incredible! People are very nice, food is amazing! Really recommend to try desserts even if you feel very full!

  • 4/5 Chiara B. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice experience, everything tasty, well presented and the service was good. The only thing is that I had the sensation to eat very quickly, maybe slow down a bit the rhythm of the dinner would have helped. The dessert was very good, the meat spectacular. We tried the pulpo because we were told it was a masterpiece, but really I wouldn’t repeat: too much mayonnaise and the cooking wasn’t excellent. I had better experiences in other restaurants with a similar place. Overall it’s recommended.

👍👍 We stumbled upon this place, which is odd, because my husband is such a foodie and usually knows about every hot place. After getting off the funicular, we wandered into we saw this beautiful spot. Inside, we started researching it on our phone and saw the rave reviews--including one from Anthony...
