    (Translated by Google) Very good customer service. We ordered everything to share, they were good portions to leave satisfied. We started with some boletus croquettes, soft in texture and flavor, we continued with Russian salad, totally homemade, something to be thankful for, and we finished with some fried eggs. They are not gourmet dishes, but they were homemade and that is appreciated. They didn't hit us for being one of the vegetarian diners, what's more they gave us the option that the eggs (which were originally with chorizo) were meatless. Totally recommendable and in terms of very correct price. (Original) Muy buen trato al cliente. Pedimos todo para compartir, eran buenas raciones para salir satisfechos. Empezamos por unas croquetas de boletus, suaves en su textura y sabor, contiuamos con ensaladilla rusa, totalmente casera, cosa de agradecer y acabamos con unos huevos estrellados. No son platos gourmet, pero eran caseros y eso es de agradecer. No nos pusieron pegar por ser uno de los comensales vegetariano, es más nos dieron la opción de que los huevos(que iban originalmente con chorizo) fuesen sin carne. Totalmente recomenrable y en cuanto a precio muy correcto.

    Generic ‘modern’ bar, fireplaces on tv, stale bocadillos and terrible wine. I don’t understand the positive reviews

    (Translated by Google) For 12 euros in this area few places you will find with this menu of the day. The wine they put you is better than the one they put in other places charging at the bar, very good amount of bread, some homemade beans. I have loved his treatment, his food and the atmosphere. Rich, homemade and at ease everything ..... I will return (Original) Por 12 euros en esra zona pocos sitios vas a encontrar con este menú del día. El vino que te ponen es mejor que el que te ponen en otros sitios cobrando en barra, muy buena cantidad de pan, unas alubias CASERAS. Me han encantado su trato, su comida y el ambiente. Rico, casero y a gusto todo..... Volvere

    (Translated by Google) Big surprise! Discreet place full of local atmosphere. From outside it is impossible to imagine what you are inside. A place of modernized tradition where everything is done with love. If you go around and you are looking for a familiar but modern and unguided place: come in! I forgot to take pictures, I'll have to repeat. (Original) Gran sorpresa! Lugar discreto lleno de ambiente local. Desde fuera es imposible imaginar lo que te encuentras dentro. Un lugar de tradición modernizado donde todo esta hecho con mucho cariño. Si andas por ahí y buscas un lugar familiar pero moderno y sin guiris: entra! Me olvidé de hacer fotos, tendré que repetir.

    I came from Korea with my girlfriend and found this wonderful kitchen in Bilbao. We ate Menu del dia and also brunch. Both are absolutely delicious and the cost-effectiveness are amazing. And the chef can speak english fluently so we have no problem to choose our menu. I highly recommend this bar if you come to Bilbao!

    The dishes are a bit too simple and the taste lacks layers. Not really worth the price for what it is.

    (Translated by Google) I usually eat the mid-day menus, they are dishes based on vegetables, salads, fish, poultry and ribeye etc, I love the cheesecake dessert, delicious, creamy, the menu includes water or wine and bread. The views give to C. ALohondiga that the one who comes to Bilbao yes or if it is a point of visit. I send photos. (Original) Suelo comer los menús del medio Día,son platos a base de verduras,ensaladas,pescado ,aves y chuletón etc,me encanta el postre de tarta de queso,riquísima,cremosa,el menú incluye el agua o vino y pan.Las vistas dan al C. ALohondiga que el que viene a Bilbao si o si es punto de visita.Envio fotos.

    Claramente sobrevalorado, garbanzos como perdigones, salmón al que se le habían olvidado de echar la sal…cuajada muy rica, eso sí.

  • 5/5 Seckin Y. 8 months ago on Google
    Best Italian food ever in somehow Bilbao. Fines many times in Italy but this place is a hidden gem you need to experience. Burrata was particularly out of this world. Would lunch dine and lunch again at this place. Also stuffed pasta with duck paired with a rioja wine. Priceless!

    The staff were very pleasant but the food could have been better or, for that matter, warmer.

  • 5/5 Crys A. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been living in Bilbao for a few months and have been here a few times. Alex is always here with a smile on his face. He is so kind and welcoming. It's an adorable little place. I highly recommend the amazing service and beautiful atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Tania S. 1 year ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A menu of the day with very good value for money. It is a small restaurant and you have to take into account the stairs it has. But if that's not a problem, it's a good place to eat. The location is also something to consider. (Original) Un menú del día con muy buena relación calidad precio. Es un restaurante pequeño y hay que tener en cuenta las escaleras que tiene. Pero si eso no representa ningún problema, es un buen lugar en el que comer. La ubicación también es algo a tener en cuenta

    a great eatery with a charming home atmosphere. Really great coffee and great prices! (for a cup of coffee and an omelette € 3) Staff very nice, knows English, which is hard to do in Bilbao. I recommend strongly

  • 5/5 Luis Ángel Ares D. 1 year ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The perfect place to eat a homemade and quality menu of the day. Modern, clean and very hygienic facilities. They have lactose-free milk and some product suitable for coeliacs. The staff very attentive, kind and friendly. Highly recommended. (Original) El local prefecto para comer un menú del día casero y de calidad. Instalaciones modernas, limpias y muy higiénicas. Tienen leche sin lactosa y algún producto apto para celíacos. El personal muy atento, amable y simpático. Muy recomendable.

    A great experience! The bartender was incredibly polite and helped us in his best English to some great, local snacks. The snacks in turn were amazing and served with a coffee in a very affordable price-range. Would 100% recommend having a bite here!

  • 5/5 Riccardo F. 4 years ago on Google
    The Menu del dia offers some real good quality food for a more than reasonable price, the ambiance may not feel super-characteristic but it's well kept and the noise is somewhat limited. +1 for the espresso, right on the (Italian) spot

👍👍 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...
