The food was delicious and the service was great. Also it was amazing value for money

Excellent food at an amazing price. Friendly service. Rustic setting.What more can I say?

Excelente amount and quality of food for dining for just €12. Absolutely would love to go back there. Great and fast service as well.

Good place for a quick and simple lunch, the menú del día. It is inexpensive and the quality of the food is reasonable.

Went for a "Menu del dia" and came out stuffed!! Great food. Individual salads are huge. And the fish tasted delicious!

My friend and I arrived in Gurnika and were ravenous! We were a little early for food as the locals tend to eat after 8pm (at the earliest) but as we had been hiking on the Camino all day we were desperate for food. This place was quieter than other places so we were apprehensive but the menu del dia was a great price (12€) with good choices. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food here. My salad first course was huge and so fresh and my second course of fish was again fresh and meaty. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if staying in Gurnika and need a filling meal at a cheap price. Great place
