    • Nestled in the heart of little Bayonne, the Pottolo is an authentic and friendly restaurant. Chef Guillaume offers artisanal and gourmet cuisine, prepared with love and passion. A short menu, which changes every month, to offer fresh, local and seasonal products. Three starters, three main courses and three desserts, with always a meat, a fish and a vegetarian option. For dessert, always a dessert based on seasonal fruits, a chocolate dessert (Bayonne being the capital of chocolate) and a cheese: all gourmets will find something for them!

      The restaurant is dog-friendly and half-portions are available for children. A daily menu - which changes weekly - is available for lunch on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.

    A very good restaurant with a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Local products are showcased, which is truly appreciated. From appetizer to dessert, everything was excellent, with real thought put into the dishes and well-crafted flavors. The portions are generous and very satisfying—I even had trouble finishing my plate! This is exactly what you're looking for when you come to the Basque Country. A wonderful discovery; I highly recommend this place.

    The food is good, but it doesn't live up to expectations, the price, or the helpful service. It's nice to describe the dishes in full to the customer, but the food was lukewarm (starter and main course). The soft-boiled egg was undercooked, the dishes were lukewarm, and it took over an hour and a half for a starter and main course. In short, we didn't continue, as the bill was already quite high for such a meager experience. All of this is very unbalanced and frankly disappointing. The restaurant clearly has ambitions, but they don't live up to them on the plate. A lot of fuss for very little in the end. There are much better options in Bayonne, even in this price range.
