The 16 best spots for salad in Bilbao

Hi, I have been there multiples during the month and half I have been in Bilbao. It's true that sometimes the waiters looks very overworked and sometimes overwhelmed but I never had a bad service from them. When they were understanding what I was saying. They use a Spanish menu to see what I wanted. They have always been very nice and as thoughtful as they could. For me it was my favorite restaurant so far in Bilbao and I would love to thanks the owner and the staff for the great service and food. Please note that I rarely give 5 stars. I'm just sad that the restaurant closed for renovation for the rest of the summer. One suggestion if anyone from the restaurant do see my comment. Please add an easy way to book table. I know there's always a lot of people and sometimes it's very hard to get a table there.

Absolutely loved this place. For dinner or for a quick tapa and drink. We went here twice, once on our first night and again on our last night in Bilbao. We went the second time because on our first night, we sat down and ordered from the menu. While we were eating and drinking and people watching, we noticed that everyone seemed to be getting a couple of different tapas that were not on the sit down menu (there is a big screen behind the bar with the tapa menu - which you can order when seated, no problem). The meals were not expensive, bottles of wine are totally reasonable. Good vermouth and their house made sweet wine (if that is your thing with dessert) was also excellent. The prices were the same at the bar or seated, so you can do what you want. To get a table, especially if it is busy, you need to ask the waiter who you will see running around busily. On our first night we saw people try to swoop in and take a table right when it opened up - typical bar rules - but the waiter would wave them off or ask them to get up. He had a running list of who was waiting for a table in his head (along with everyone's food and drink orders - I honestly don't know how they do it). When we came in our last night at a very not busy time - 5:30pm ish - we saw people just grab tables and the waiter didn't mind, so I think that must be just when it is busy, so it doesn't turn into a free-for-all in there. I highly recommend from the tapas menu: the foie with egg and mushroom, the beef cheeks, their fish and chips with aioli. And from the sit down menu (keep in mind, everything we tried was good): the octopus, the croquettes with aioli, their cheesecake. Ask for a recommendation for a bottle of wine if that is your thing - the one our waiter recommended was glorious.

An absolute treat for our wedding anniversary, we had the tasting menu and a delicious local red wine, followed by coffee and orujo. The restaurant is beautiful inside. We felt we were exclusive guests in a wine cave, being served delicious and tasty food, every course a new flavour and sensation. The service was friendly, welcoming, professional and unrushed. The young staff are well trained and confident, so we felt relaxed and cared for. We would go again in a heart beat and totally recommend for anyone wanting a romantic place to propose or celebrate their wedding anniversary. Thank you for making our day extra special.

Set in a casual square teaming with people enjoying drinks under the sun, the vibe was casual. The food however was anything but. The foie gras, on a bed of potato puree and nestled between soft mushrooms and a runny egg was the perfect mix of mouthwatering goodness that needed to be swept clean with crusty bread. The asparagus in tempura batter was crispy and tasty as expected. However the fired artichokes in almond creamy proved to be a creamy and salty bridge too far as it was a little too overpowering after a while. But by service was fast and efficient and we did enjoy the food and vibes.

Great place for a nice dinner. Tried the tasting menu and recommend it. You get a good selection of different types of basq food. You will leave full and happy!

Restaurant was recently renovated- see pictures. Very Taste food. Try the asparagus and Slow cooked park in green egg

The Best meal we had in our one month trip to Spain and France so far. We stopped there as we were hungry for lunch and they had space for 2 for one hour. We took the 6 course a degustation menú and averything was absolutely tasty and delicious from start to dessert. Can’t believe we ate all this in an hour, but everything was so good. And the service was top notch. Would love to live in Bilbao just to eat at La Viña del Ensanche

A bit of a disappointment as all 3 of the pintxos I had were pretty unremarkable. The fried baby squid was the best but, still, nothing special. The broiled bacalao pintxos was creamy and pretty tasteless. Service was fine, but there's no inside seating and the place is just not pleasant in general (the terrace does seem nice).

This is a well-known local tapas bar, and you can tell it's very popular — even on Monday afternoon it was quite busy. I ordered two pintxos, but since I was sitting in the outdoor area, I had to order a main dish as well. I chose the grilled prawns with salt and a glass of Txakoli. The food was pretty good, about average for the area, but the prices were a bit higher compared to other tapas bars I've been to.

Good pintxos bar with seating options outside and a few inside. The pintxos were quite good, albeit a little more on the pricy side. Overall a good experience!

Recommended by a local who lives close to this place I decided to try it. If you want to sit in their small patio you have to order from the menu which is mainly full sized meals. I was told that if I wanted Pintxos or drinks I have to order at the bar. I sat down and ordered the set menu. Starter is three Pintxos followed by very well cooked tuna (no fishy smell or taste at all) and Foie gras and to finish a chocolate lava cake for desert. The server was very friendly and helpful.

Good pintxos, they do rely on cream/béchamel quite a bit. When we went it was completely packed , lots of people passing by and bumping into you, which it’s not my favorite way to enjoy a meal and subtracted from the experience a bit. But if you don’t mind that , this will probably be one of your favorite places in Bilbao.

We got the pintxos menu, and extra zamburiña and hueleva prawn portions. Food was ok but nothing was great and none really stood out, food wasn’t as well balanced as we liked.

They offer a variety of pintxos with inventive flavor combinations. I highly recommend the vaca madura con trufa and chipirón gratinado. There is plenty of room for eating inside the restaurant; you can choose to stand at the bar or eat at bistro tables.

We had the trio of dips, salad, and potatoes. Everything was so delicious that we came back a second day and had the dips and salads plus carrot cake. The service was friendly and we enjoyed the outdoor seating very much. You have to order at the counter and then they bring your food. Highly recommend!!

Amazing Vegan food. Superb service and friendly staff. I can't recommend enough. Visiting from the UK and will definitely come again while here. Go for the 3 dip Selection and house burger and you wont be disappointed. Prices are very reasonable too.

Good location and menu. The macaroni ‘cheese’ was a good bowl of comfort food and baked aubergine tasty but needing a sauce. Delicious maki with tasty fillings and a pleasant atmosphere. Glad to see them serving Yogi Teas.

This place was incredible!! I only wish I got to visit it more during my stay in Bilbao. The food was delicious, and I also recommend the lemonade and the ginger drink, and trying the brownie. The staff is lovely and welcoming, the location is great and it’s really nice inside. We really enjoyed what we had here.

Great vegan food in an accessible part of Bilbao. Love to find places like this. Not pretentious, small place, casual, serving amazing healthy food.

This is an excellent vegan restaurant with creative food options, the tempeh pita sandwich with potatoes tasted great and can highly recommend the place.

Such a lovely vegan restaurant that we visited twice over our 4 day holiday! I especially liked the makis and the gyozas. Great desserts too. Reasonably priced, especially the delicious wine. Very friendly staff.

Had a wonderful time at the restaurant with top and pleasant service, unique and high quality dishes and enjoyable atmosphere. This was a great and memorable choice for a fine dinning at Bilbao.

We quiet loved it for our first experience. But today wasnt ok. The middle of the sea bass was raw, dessert was nothing special and a bit dry. I was offered whatever I want, but just wanted a matching experience. I was alone and ordered a bottle of wine apart of the menu (no gesture on that hand), the bill was 100eur wrong and it took 15min to be corrected, so long that I missed my driver and was charged for it. Unfortunately not a good experience tonight.

Visited two times. The first time à la carte, the second time we took the tasting menu. The à la carte experience was great. For the tasting menu, the quality was generally high, however two things were standing out: 1. The wine pairing for the tasting menu consisted of two full bottles of wine (we were only two people) instead of individual glass pairings per dish. The fact that two whole bottles would be served was not stated in the menu, and it was not made clear in any way. Otherwise we would opt out. 2. The meat dish was plain bad, both in consistency, taste, and the doneness (we ordered medium rare but got very blue rare). Hence, one full star off. However, all fish and seafood dishes we’ve gotten over the course of the two visits were great - clearly their specialty.

Not too much to add. Great food, great service. The owner/chef visited our table twice, we were there for lunch. The hake was a little salty in my opinion. Other than that everything we had was delicious. We tried snails as well, not everyone’s cup tea.

Booked on Spec and what a surprise..good one. Had an amazing experience. Went for the tasting menu with accompanied wines and couldn't fault with anything. Staff were so attentive and so friendly and really appreciated that you liked the food. Just a great experience and would highly recommend if you are in Bilbao. Had a wonderful night

We were very disappointed. Bad service. The food was also disappointing. Ordered medium steak and got more than rear even blue steaks.

Great value for money! Fantastic food and service. Not Michelin-star level but still very good!

Overall OK but expected a little better based on the overall rating and some previous reviews. We went for the Harri menu, each course arrived swiftly and we'd have appreciated the pace to be a little slower, the starting sharing courses were all good; maki, omelette foam and grilled prawns (seafood of the day). Next course of tuna tataki, the tuna itself was good but accompaniments not to our liking - crisps and a tartare sauce that was too much mayo. Next course of iberican pork was the biggest disappointment - probably one of the driest pieces of pork I've experienced and would have shared that feedback had we been asked at the time. Desserts - passion fruit cheesecake was good and a nice size after the previous courses, French toast is substantial so ensure you've left enough room. Atmosphere is modern and spacious, quiet early on in the evening but busier later which it needed.

Interesting fusion between basque ingredients and Asian techniques. Pretty unique, but you have to like it. The start was with a small cabbage hummus, served while waiting for your order. We then got a Cappuccino of Cod to share, 8 makies with a chili pepper and rice base and cod-fish cream on top. Pretty complex taste, but good. We then had a local grilled beef, very well cooked and tasty, a grilled pigeon with its stuffed gyozas/ravioli, very tasty even if it requires to combine in a proper way the meat, the gyoza and the sauce. Last main dish was a ramen seafood based, with noodles. Very intense taste. To end we order two desserts, the mojito ice cream, served with caramelized orange skin and the French toast with dulce de leche. Both very sophisticated and tasty, the first to prefer if you like a bitter taste, the second if you like a sweet option. The venue is very elegant and cozy, with a very nice playlist accompaining the dinner. Staff was very attentive and nice. Recommended to try, but not expecting a pure basque restaurant.

We had originally booked to go to Eneko Basque, however, after arriving and being ignored for 20 minutes (not even acknowledged or seated) we decided to try Bascook instead. Even though we didn't have a reservation they couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. We chose the Menu Gatz, and were really impressed. All of the dishes were perfect and we enjoyed trying each of them. The wine was also great. The service was exceptional - it wasn't pretentious or over the top and the whole experience felt relaxed. I recommend!

Amazing lunch, exceptional value for such high quality food and service. Highly recommended. We came as a result of a recommendation from a Spanish friend. We didn’t have a reservation but luckily they had a table for us. Ordered from the set menu which was delicious and very filling. Wine was also top notch.

Great lunch time deal with a choice of 2 plates (no difference between starter or main course), plus dessert and a glass of wine or beer for 32 Euros.. Nice friendly staff, great venue. Mussels in a fantastic sauce, steak tartare was very tasty but too smooth texture, special of burger was nice but could have been better seasoned, salt cod nice. All followed by their fantastic chocolate dessert.

Tasty Basque food with modern spin through Asian and Mexican influences. Cocktails also very nice!

Had high expectations for this place, but it fell short on every aspect. The staff makes you feel rushed and every dish had an issue... (cold, not fully cooked, etc). Does not compare to its sister place, The Basquery, which is a 10/10

Was walking by on the street and it called to me. The staff was very pleasant and accommodating, despite the fact that I didn’t have a reservation. I has the lentils with vegetables, pork loin with mushrooms and apple sauce and tiramisu. Every was delicious and the portions were very generous. Fantastic place for a “local” lunch.

Fantastic unassuming spot just outside the Old Town area. Food was great, and the service made the meal that much more enjoyable. Staff were all so wonderfully welcoming and made our evening memorable. Would highly recommend.

I truly cannot recommend Agape enough! The menu of the day has the best value for money of any place I have been so far in this area, especially since the portion sizes are very generous. I ordered the squid rice, tuna with mushrooms and cheesecake for dessert. The tuna was my favourite but all were delicious and arrived soon after ordering. The staff were also incredibly friendly and accommodating. If you are looking for a great restaurant that won’t break the bank, you must visit!

Amazing experience, we booked earlier in the day, owner (or manager) spoke excellent english and all the staff were lovely. we got the set menu at very reasonable price, and we liked that it still had a few options for entree main and dessert. delicious fresh food with large portion sizes.

Excellent food. Staff very friendly, attentive and informative - explained each dish on offer. Had menu del dia (starter, main, dessert, bread, water and wine all included - large and very tasty portions. Highly recommend, book in advance if possible.

This was an amazing place, the host was incredibly polite, gave us extra desert, the portions were very generous. We had the set menu and the quality of everything was amazing, value for money was extraordinary. They have a lovely selection of wines as well. The name Agape in Greek means Love, and the owner certainly put a lot of love into this place.

Super friendly staff and best price/quality! Every dish we tried was amazing but the white fish with ratatouille was out of this world.

Food was very strange. Service was meh. We did like the ambiance. We each got the menu of the day and our 20 year old could barely eat what they ordered and they are not a picky eater. We’ve eaten around the world and the flavor combos just didn’t work.

  Restaurante Sua San in Bilbao offers a cozy, modern dining experience with a focus on healthy, flavorful cuisine. Located across from the Guggenheim Museum, it’s ideal for breakfast, brunch, or a relaxed dinner. The menu features dishes like Eggs Benedict, vegetable lasagna, and quinoa salads, catering to various dietary preferences. While service is generally good, however, reservations are recommended during peak hours.   

Would eat here again. Had the medium portion of the rucupavo salad and substituted the turkey for avocado & chickpeas. Friend had the avocado salad and added chicken. Fresh ingredients, good portion & well dressed. Didn’t try the smoothies or pastries but all looked very appetizing.

The place itself has a very nice location near the museum. I had a sirloin steak that was very tasty but the fries that came with it were soggy. Mozzarella salad we ordered had way too much sweet sauce on it, but that's typical of Spain. My girlfriend ordered the vegetable lasagna, which was completely inedible. I won't even try to describe what it was. I wouldn't come back. I should add in fairness, they took the lasagna off the bill. At least that's something.

Came for brunch; however, saw the bar with pintxos and decided to try! Delicious!!! Muy muy rico!

The salad was missing the nuts. The atmosphere very disappointing and very bad service when it comes to payment. Didn't let me split the bill or let me pay partially with cash. Also they sell refilled still water as new. Won't come back.

Excellent choice to try this restaurant when we walked by and thought "this looks inviting"! Staff is friendly, a bit hectic at times but nothing what could dampen the experience. The atmosphere is stunning, well decorated and interesting. Food choice is stunning and all the plates in our 6 people group were well presented and yummy! Thumbs up for this lovely place.

Wouldn’t recommend. All of the tapas in front of you are microwaved. Mussels were horrible. They are in a very bland smoky tomato sauce. I didn’t finish them and that’s saying a lot. Ordered the grilled lamb and it was extremely fatty, more than half was inedible and plate looked like a mess. Conveniently a Spanish couple order grilled lamb chops next to me and they were perfect pieces and the plate actually looked appealing. I tried to order the sea bass and they only had 25€ portions left .The couple on the other side somehow managed to order a small sea bass well after I tired to order one. Pretty sure I was treated poorly for not being Spanish. Only thing that was actually good was the cheese cake

I love snails. I mean, I really love snails. These were seriously the best snails 🐌 I’ve ever had. They were stewed in an amazing spicy and sweet and thick red sauce with large chunks of spicy peppers and stewed meat. Truly something special.

Great food in a really busy, fast-paced bar-resto. The menu is relatively simple but with lots of choice and the wine is, of course, delicious and very good value. Great service and great amusement watching some people struggling with the piparras, which I had 3 sets of. This is a great place. The rabbit and soup were also superb.

Absolutely fabulous! Bustling restaurant / bar with traditional Spanish cuisine. Super friendly service & delicious inexpensive food & wine. Standouts were the croquetas, braised rabbit and grilled pimientos padron

Amazing local Traditional Basque restaurant in Old Town!! Solid selection of Basqueland foods with ample servicing. Each dish was well balanced and delicious. Be careful not to over order though.

Good local food but very crowded and rushy atmosphere. Some food was really good and others were just ok. Don’t expect the staff to speak good English, but it worked out well for us anyway.

We came here and ordered the turbot, escargot, squid, spinach croquetas and mussels. Only the turbot and croquetas stood out.

I recently dined at Nerua Guggenheim, and while the experience was pleasant, it didn't quite live up to the "creative" label it's been given on the Michelin website. Every dish I tried was good, but nothing really stood out as innovative or unique. Felt like a bit overrated in my opinion. The tomatoes were a fresh and promising start, one of the highlights of the meal. The anchovy was just okay—honestly, it felt like something I could have easily found at one of the local pintxo bars. The spinach dish was rather ordinary; the almond and anchovy flavors were lost in a too-liquid texture beneath the spinach leaf. The cod was tasty but, again, lacked creativity. The bonito was well-prepared and, along with the tomatoes, one of the better dishes. The seabass? I’ve had similar at home, so nothing special there. The pork belly was decent, but not remarkable. Unfortunately, the dessert—a sweet pear—was a disappointing finish. I was hoping for a refreshing burst of mint and lime, but it just didn’t deliver. Overall, the meal was okay, but given the Michelin star and the "creative" label, I expected more. It was a decent experience, but not one I'd go out of my way to repeat.

Dining at Nerua Guggenheim Bilbao was still a special opportunity — having a 10-course menu for €110 inside the beautiful Guggenheim Museum was memorable. The food was not bad, but overall it felt a bit simple. Most dishes tasted quite ordinary. I felt the food could have been more elaborate and refined. However, I particularly enjoyed the spinach dish and the dish with squid ink, which stood out among the courses. The desserts were also underwhelming, and I wish they had been more creative and carefully developed. Unfortunately, the service was poor. The staff often couldn’t answer basic questions, either due to limited English or lack of menu knowledge. Usually at fine dining restaurants, the problem is that the pacing between dishes can be too slow — but here, it was the opposite. The courses came out so quickly that I felt rushed and almost uncomfortably full before I had even finished the previous dishes. My plate was even taken while my friend was still eating, which made the experience even more awkward. When I asked about the tea options, they simply brought green tea without offering any choice. At the end of the meal, I shared my feedback, but the staff gave no response. I’m not sure whether they didn’t understand or simply didn’t want to confront any criticism. I didn’t expect perfection from a one-Michelin-star restaurant, but overall, it was not a pleasant experience.

Nerua is undeniably elegant—minimalist design, beautiful atmosphere, right next to the Guggenheim, and the food is light and refined. Perfect, that is, until reality bites—literally. During a birthday dinner, I bit into a fish and found a hard, white plastic pellet about 3 mm in diameter. We informed the server immediately. She took it to the kitchen and… that was it. No explanation, no apology, no acknowledgment—just a silent nod as if nothing happened. Only after I asked post-payment did we hear the baffling explanation: apparently, fish sometimes eat plastic in the ocean, and it stays in their flesh. How comforting. I get it—ocean pollution is tragic. But in any other Michelin-starred restaurant, discovering plastic in your dish would merit at least a sincere apology, or some form of acknowledgment. Not this awkward, hands-off shrug until the guest chases answers. In short: the food and space are still nice, but the dismissive service and lack of care made a special occasion feel like a bad joke.

Worst 1 michelin star restaurant i have ever been to, honestly was so upset about the quality of food being served up, it was worse than the food served in the bistro in the same museum. Every dish was excruciatingly sour, bitter or salty. The scallop omelette was so salty I winced. The bonito was so sour that every bite resulted in pinpricks in my tongue. Another dish with this strange parsley sauce was so bitter I had to sip lots of water. Not sure if they were playing a practical joke on me. I couldn’t bring myself to even finish a few dishes. The dessert was so stodgy and bland. I was incredibly disappointed given that it was the last dinner of my trip to San Sebastian and I had booked this months in advance. No matter how many times we tried to wave a waiter over to pay for the bill, we were flat out ignored, even though we were rushing out to catch the fireworks show. I had a much more delicious and better value one michelin star experience at another restaurant in Bilbao called Mina and only wished I made a second booking there, instead of being ridiculously angry at the food. None of the waiters or waitresses even bothered to check in about the taste of the food even when I clearly didn’t touch more than half of my fish. My conclusion is that this restaurant does not deserve a michelin star, or it needs a new chef to set things straight! Because how can you have a tasting menu that is so lacklustre and at times odious from start to end - that is simply baffling!

Wonderful experience, you can choose a la carte or the tasting menu. We took the menu with the wine pairing. Highly recommended. The restaurant is not cozy - very white and minimalistic but it works.

Interior perhaps too minimalistic for my taste, but more then compensated by service and quality of food and wine.

Really didn’t understand the contrasted ratings for Nerua. We loved the experience and the food was amazing. The chef and the team were attentive. Love being at the chef table looking at how they plated and the process how they created the dishes. Superb cleanliness and organisation. Didn’t feel rushed and didn’t feel too overly posh. It was a fabulous meal from that may not look decorated enough for standard perspectives of a Michelin-star restaurant but they were packed with flavours and interesting combinations. I love that Tomato salad and the marinated seaweed sea bass. I think some people just need to calm down, keep an open mind and let yourself to be immersed into what Nerua can offer, beautifully crafted food. Don’t expect and you will get the unexpected.

During my stay in the wondrous city of Bilbao, I planned on having a meal at Larruzz. I identified this restaurant by researching on Google Maps. The reviews were good, so I thought I'm going there! I didn't make a reservation before my visit, but luckily I was able to get a table. The staff who served me were very friendly and helpful. The service I received was excellent. I ordered 3 dishes. A really tasty starter. The main course of crayfish and prawn paella 🥘 was so tasty. I had a lemon 🍋 sorbet to cleanse my palate after I finished my main course plus a double espresso to keep me awake ⏰️. I was expecting a bill over €60 as I didn't look at the prices, but I was shocked when it was only €43 including a beer too! That's such good value for such a nice restaurant right by the river. The restaurant is well appointed too, and the decor top notch. I'd say, if you enjoy good food at reasonable pricing, then pay Larruzz a visit if you are in Bilbao, you won't be disappointed. 🙂

1/5 — Very Disappointing Experience We were required to have a reservation, but when we arrived, the restaurant was completely empty — and remained that way throughout our visit. The menu was confusing, and although our server attempted to explain it, they did so in a way that lacked professionalism and completely disregarded personal space. After placing our order, we waited an hour for our food. Unfortunately, it wasn’t worth the wait. The paella was bitter, the mussels had sand in them, and the small pasta dish tasted anything but fresh. This place presents itself as a high-quality restaurant, but the reality was far from it. Definitely not worth the hype or the price

Fantastic! The tuna avocado tartare with crostini, and the scallops in garlic (served in shell) were both amazing. The tuna was mixed with chunks of avocado held together with a mild soya-based sauce, and the scallops were small but so flavourful - salted, herb and garlic. With bread, oil and vinegar, some sangria and my friend’s duck pâté, we were done for the evening at 4pm. Our server Rakel was lovely, attentive, and helpful. We’ll be back.

I came here on a local’s recommendation for paella, and it did not disappoint. The bread with basil pesto and the Iberico were also absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!

Make sure that you have a booking before you go. Food variety was OK and portions were good. I had seafood paella and it was nice. The only annoying thing is instead of writing the full price of paella for two people writing per person price and adding "Min. 2 persons"😐

Beautiful restaurant for paella lover. Service is warm and dessert is good also.

Main problem with this place is poor service. We've waited for the bill for 15 minutes, which is inexcusable because we asked for it three times. Restaurant was half-empty, so it wasn't a matter of it being crowded. The food is decent. I recommend making a reservation, because even though restaurant is huge and many tables are not occupied, they won't let you in without one.

One of the best restaurants of my life. The owner is funny and full of stories and good advices for the food. The fish was perfectly cooked with tasty ingredients and the April mushrooms were smelling and tasting like the forest. The proposed wines were perfectly combined with food.

Quiet restaurant with excellent food and fantastic staff. We arrived before the kitchen opened as we eat much earlier than our European friends. They invited us in to sit and set us up with drinks. We visited and enjoyed the time before the kitchen opened. Food was excellent. Everything we ordered was amazing. Put this place on your must visit list.

Great place for a good and tasty “Menu del día”. The staff is so friendly and makes you feel quite welcomed from the moment you’re there. But the star of this place is the food, so tasty, a combination of local and Spanish cuisine. The starter, entree and dessert plus bread and wine/water for 14€ is quite a deal but you can also order directly from their menu. A 100% recommended for anyone, whether you’re a solo traveler or a big group of friends.

The kitchen is excellent overall, but the foie gras is a must-try. We loved it so much that we went back for another meal before the end of our trip.

Best food I’ve had in Bilbao, great Steak and the pimentos were great!

Absolutely delicious! This is one of the restaurant where one can eat the whole fish with reasonable price ! The staffs are very friendly and the dining experience is wonderful ! We had a line-caught monkfish, it is amazing that It serves with the fish head which we don’t find easily in restaurants. Definitely one of the best choice especially when one gets lost in the touristic restaurant areas.

excellent welcoming service. fresh quality food. nice selection of wines and an expansive menu to choose from.

After visiting loads of vegan cafés i can admit that this place is a truly Gem. The quality of the cakes/cupcakes and tortilla de patatas is outstanding and the café is so cute and cozy. Everything they bake is handmade in the store, organic and truly special. I have ordered some custom cakes for birthdays and a baby shower, and they’re truly spectacular! Creative, really well priced and soooo tasty!!!! Their price is really good compared to other places around, considering all is organic and handmade its totally worth it 💕♥️

One of - if not the - best vegan bakeries in Spain that we’ve visited. Everything- sweet and savory - was delicious and visually pleasing. Staff were friendly and helpful. We even considered renting a flat in the lane so we could eat there every day.

Great selection for breakfast. Nice to taste local foods. Very kind and warm customer service. Best place in Bilbao <3. Too many good sweet things,🫶🏼 yummm :>.

This spot is EXCEPTIONAL!!!! A huge drinks menu with lots of choice, and plenty of plant based milks available (oat, rice, almond). It is a fully vegan pasteleria, with a wide choice of vegan cakes, pastries, cookies and savoury options. The tortilla is soooooo good! Top favourites of ours were tarta de pistachio and the banoffee muffins. Customer service is exceptional, the girl there today was so helpful and attentive! Would definitely recommend 🩷

Delicious vegan savoury food and sweet treats, friendly staff and lovely interior. Would eat here again.

The most perfect little cafe! The atmosphere is cozy, the decor is beautiful, the service is terrific, and the food is delicious! I came here many times during my recent trip to Bilbao, and I know for certain that my next trip will be the same! Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for vegan food in the area 🥰

Lovely stuff. Had a cracking carbonara kind of tortilla and a chocolate scone which was a bit dry but still nice. The coffee was OK, the vibe was chilled and the staff were friendly. Lots of options.

This place is fantastic. I travelled across the city from Txurdinaga for my morning cold brew every morning for a month and had brunch here on several occasions. The coffee blend is delicious, rich and chocolatey. The food is amazing, interesting and innovative and I have never had something that I didn’t love. The atmosphere is really fun and relaxed. The cheesecake is the best that I had in my life! Pure and simple. A special note about the staff. Every single member of the team is friendly, patient, kind and fun. I can’t praise this cafe enough and it will be top of my list to visit again when I come back to Bilbao.

Absolutely the best cappuccino in a long time. Food was also delicious. Great vegan Club Sandwich. Staff was extremely friendly. Inside is very nice. Some tables on the sidewalk.

Loved ARVO! Food is good and the staff are good, and really friendly as well. It's a small shop so there may be a wait, but if you're looking for a tasty breakfast, with great coffee at a reasonable price then this is the place for you!

Had an amazing brunch here. The location isn’t too central so when I went it wasn’t too crowded. The latte with oat milk was delicious. They didn’t have the tea flavor we like but they gladly gave us hot water. (We always carry tea bags in our arsenal lol) For food we ordered the shakshuka and Turkish eggs and they were beautifully executed. Service was fast and the bathroom was clean. Definitely coming back for my future visits to Bilbao.

Best coffee in Bilbao hands down! I’m a bit of a coffee snob and the Arvo crew does it Well! and their food is Delicious! Good vibes and Flat whites! 👏❤️🙏

The coffee was very smooth and worked well with several milk options (1 oat flat white and 1 regular milk cappuccino). Staff were very friendly and helpful and there was a good, relaxed atmosphere in the cafe. The standout was the Basque cheesecake. A very generous slice, with an incredibly smooth texture and the perfect balance of caramelised cheese without it being too sweet. A must visit when in Bilbao for speciality coffee and cheesecake!

Wonderful place. The interior is very aesthetic, coffee is premium and the food has been delicious! Tarte de queso y pystachio - one of the best cheese cakes I ever had. The only improvement I could suggest - to have a couple dishes with pouched eggs.

Absolutely perfect location. Food was superb and the staff lovely. So reasonably priced for such good food and wine!

Amazing breakfast with super value! Omelette + coffee/tea with juice for €3ish only!

Lovely place for a Sunday brunch just 10 mins walking to the Guggenheim. We went for the €18 brunch: -fresh juice( choice between orange+red fruits/ orange+ carrot/orange+pineapple) -hot drink -toast with butter, strawberry jam, marmalade - board of Iberico ham with bread, evo, tomato concassé - focaccia with salmon and herb soft cheese or focaccia with scrambled eggs -whipped greek yoghurt with red berries sauce. All the food was extremely fresh and high quality and I loved how they presented the food using local fresh ingredients.

Nice place for a quick drink and delicious pinchos, in this lunchroom-ish restaurant.

Just average. No dish was special, clumsy at best. Service wasn't great either, had to ask 3 times for a glass for my water. Food was average, I can guarantee plenty of better alternatives. Bathrooms were in poor condition also. Look elsewhere !

Nice place. Interior design calling for wine tasting and drinking. On bar pintxo samples are exposed :appealing... Personnel speak English background music nice. It was perfect!!!

very expensive compared to their food. they only served big portion but really can not have any good taste. left more than half of what served. gazpacho stinks and bread smells too much like egg as well. table was too high, felt uncomfortable.

After a very long walk based on the posted opening hours it was a big disappointment to find this turroneria only opens in November for the Christmas season. Please adjust your hours! Luckily the other turroneria Adelia Ivañez was open a short walk away so my gifts were bought there

Ice cream is overpriced, and the serving quantity is just to the edge of the cup. Much better ice creams available in the area. And advertised flavors not available.

Best ice cream in town ! Wonderful service and super tasty.

Crema Catalana ice cream a must

Nice ice cream, home made We asked for small but received medium for 3.9 € - maybe a little bite expensive

Came here twice. Great ice cream and great service

Kids loved the place :))

Great atmosphere, good options for breakfast/brunch, average prices and service.

(Translated by Google) Very pleasant treatment from the two waiters who served me this weekend at breakfast. Variety of offers and careful presentation.
