Olaizola
Jatetxea
in
Oiatzun,
Tornola
kalea
2,
is
a
traditional
basque
food
restaurant
which
is
a
great
value
for
money.
It
is
located
within
the
Natural
Park
Peñas
de
Aia
next
to
the
Oiartzun
river
in
the
region
with
the
same
name.
It's
well-known
to
people
who
live
in
the
area
and
surroundings.
To
get
there,
you
need
to
drive
or
walk
on
the
Bidegorri,
which
is
a
walk
and
cycle
path,
because
there
is
no
public
transportation.
When
you
walk
in,
you
notice
the
walls
built
with
big
stones
and
superficially
big
wooden
columns
and
large
wooden
tables
with
long
benches.
Also,
you
can
find
a
big
dinner
room
with
nice
tables
and
chairs.
During
the
week
it
is
less
crowded
compared
with
the
weekend
when
you
need
to
wait
for
some
minutes
to
find
a
place
because
the
restaurant
is
quite
famous.
There
is
a
great
range
of
exciting
and
tasty
traditional
basque
dishes.
You
can
enjoy
a
la
carte
and
specials
menus
with
a
wide
variety
of
starters,
mains
and
desserts.
Starters
include
a
variety
of
salads,
scrambled
eggs
with
mushrooms
and
mixed
fried
dishes.
There
is
also
a
long
range
of
main
courses,
from
cod
fish
or
grilled
Monkfish
to
T-Bone
steak
or
wild
boar
and
Ox-tail
stew.
These
are
accompanied
by
reasonably-priced
wines,
champagnes,
cider,
spirits
and
soft
drinks.
I
asked
the
special
menu
number
four
which
included
3
starters,
as
well
as
having
one
main
course
of
a
wide
range,
dessert,
a
bottle
of
wine
and
coffee.
I
started
with
squid
salad,
which
was
really
tasty.
My
companion
ordered
leek
and
prawn
filled
cake,
which
was
delicious.
For
my
main
course,
I
really
enjoyed
my
beef
steak
of
500g,
as
the
meat
was
really
tender.
Although
my
guest's
grilled
Seabass
looked
extremely
appetising.
For
desserts,
we
had
Xamingoxo,
typical
Navarre
dessert,
and
apple
pie.
Both
were
absolutely
delicious.
One
of
the
most
attractive
aspects
of
Olaizola
Jatetxea
is
the
prices,
our
meal
for
2
cost
£
25
each,
drink
included,
which
was
excellent
value
for
money.
On
balance,
if
you
fancy
coming
at
weekends
keep
in
mind
the
car
park
is
not
big
enough,
so
maybe
you
need
to
wait
some
minutes
to
get
a
space
to
park.
Olaizola
Jatetxea
is
an
excellent
and
atmospheric
place
to
eat
a
nice
and
tasty
meal
which
is
highly
recommended
for
all,
including
families.
