Excellent restaurant if you want to have a typical lunch with good views. It is even better if you have this lunch after climbing the pagasarri
Me and my son just had lunch here. We were treated like some type of second class customers, very rude and unhelpful. Food is good only if you think quite mediocre meet with salt is a delicacy. Do not go here.
Had the chuletas, which is basically a rib of beef served partially cooked on an individual barbecue brought to your table. This way you can eat your beef anything from blue/rare up to blackened, as you prefer. Waiters were great to us, but we were being hosted by locals which probably helped a lot. View is spectacular over Bilbao, as the sun set there's also the option for a walk up the hill, in case you haven't got quite enough appetite for the chuletas yet. Strange custom of serving the red wine chilled, but easy enough to hoist it out of the bucket and drink it warmed. However on a 40C night might change my mind. Was €35 per head for a monster meal including wine, coffee and brandies!
The place is very nice. View of Bilbao is great. We heard the meat was very good so we got the chuleton. It was tasty but the meat was tough and chewy. The waiter was not very helpful either. Expensive meal for a below average experience.

Absolutely fantastic food and drinks served on a mountain overlooking the city of bilbao. what do you need? highly recommended.
Family food, people. both the girls and we have eaten spectacular, with rooms and foie, pulpo to the brasa, homemade croquettes, laminas of beautiful (marinado, wonderful), filling, entrecot and chuletillas. desserts, especially the highly recommended tostada_torage.
We were eating at the outdoor tables where you can order a chupe that is the star of the dishes. Then it has an inner dining room where you can order the letter. on tables outside in days of a lot of influence I recommend ordering the command as soon as it takes too much time to get out of the dishes
A cosy place, and a varied menu with high quality products, it is worthwhile to give these cravings from time to time. We were very well served, thank you very much.
