    Bar de Pintxos en la Plaza Nueva de Bilbao. Fuimos a picar algo al medio día, estaba bastante lleno de gente pero nos atendieron enseguida. El personal muy amable a pesar de la evidente carga de trabajo. Los pintxos de gran variedad y sorprenden con su fusión de sabores, los hay tanto fríos como calientes que puedes visualizarlos en la barra y también te dan la opción de solicitarlos en la carta para que te los preparen en el momento. Ambiente agradable, algo ruidoso debido a la cantidad de gente en el local, con ambientación de típico bar de pintxos de Bilbao de toda la vida.

    I came here after being recommended it by a bartender a few days prior. Oh my word - absolutely phenomenal food, without a doubt the best restaurant food I’ve ever had in any other country I’ve been...
