HORDAGO RESTAURANT: REFINED CUISINE AND PANORAMIC TERRACE AT THE LIZARRIETA PASS IN SARE

A typical address

The Hordago restaurant is located at the Lizarrieta pass on the heights of Sare, classified among the most beautiful villages in the Basque Country. Housed in a traditional building, the establishment offers a neat and authentic setting, with a panoramic terrace opening onto the surrounding hills. It is not uncommon to see pottoks, these small wild horses typical of the Basque territory.

The restaurant is run by Rémy and Mikela, the owners, who themselves provide a warm and personalized welcome. Their presence contributes to the friendly atmosphere that makes the restaurant's reputation, both among visitors and regulars.

Local and seasonal cuisine

The Hordago Sare restaurant offers dishes made from local and seasonal products, mainly from small producers in the Basque Country.

In the evening, the discovery menu allows you to discover surprising and carefully prepared flavors.

On site, a point of sale allows you to buy certain products used in the kitchen, such as preserves, pâté croûte, gravlax and olive oils to take away to extend the experience at home.

At Hordgao, in autumn, during the migratory passage period, wood pigeons are cooked in the purest tradition, from Sare fillets – an ancestral and lead-free method, guaranteeing healthy and tasty meat. During this season, a real buzz animates the house: hunting enthusiasts, nature lovers and fine gourmets come together to enjoy a unique experience to the rhythm of the migration.
