Enjoyed their signature shrimp/prawns, chorizo & peppers dishes. I didn't like the squid as much. They put a lot of effort in to their warm dishes. Service was friendly & efficient. I appreciated the owner recommending dishes to us. Bit more expensive than some other places we tried but still glad we went there.

Ate at this place a couple of times. We bar-hopped for pintxos around the area and the chicken skewers and prawns are definitely amongst our favourite while we were at San Sebastian.

Go for the gambas! Amazing gambas pinxos will blow you away! Try to get as close to the bar as possible as it's only a small place!

Great food freshly cooked. Lovely friendly service. Value for money. Great house red wines. We went back for a second night it was that good.

If you love shrimp, this is your first and last stop in Parte Vieja! It comes on a little skewer on top of a piece of bread and the flavor is so delicious. I don't remember the price, but it was worth it!

If you are visiting San Sebastián you must try the pintxos here - the prawns (gambas) in particular are delicious. The atmosphere here is also really good and the staff are very helpful and friendly.

Came just for the Gambas as everyone raved about it. It was the best prepared shrimp we've had since arrival in San Sebastian.

This is a hard one. We were only there for two nights. It had been recommended so after visiting others we tried it and loved it. The atmosphere of the place, the delights of tapas strewn across the bar, the social side of it, the quick and friendly service, the very reasonable prices. It was brilliant. We didn't have time...

Well worth the good reviews. The bar is small and easy to walk past - basically a door's width but then goes back a fair way - so look out for it. Standing only and does get busy but that is testament to the quality of the food. Some cold tapa available but the focus is on the hot stuff... More
