Ibaia Bayonne — Restaurant in Bayonne

The waiter didn't show us the full menu and the dishes were quite simple compared to the photos in the other Google reviews. It didn't make any sense. We speak little French and the waiter didn't speak Spanish neither, so the conversation with the waiter, in English, was brief. We were sitting inside and instead of bringing us a menu, he brought us one of the handwritten signs they had outside. However, it only had half (or less) of the dishes we had seen in the Google reviews and photos (Which were what motivated us to visit this place). We thought that since it was a bit late, they had run out of some ingredients, so we didn't ask. But as we were finishing our dishes, we saw that some clients on the terrace were ordering some of those other dishes we saw in the reviews (Like the chipirons du chef) . Confused, and because of our low level of French and the time, we decided to just pay the bill and leave. As we were leaving, we looked at the signs outside, and it turned out the waiter only brought us one of the panels. We missed the opportunity to try better dishes, which were listed on the other signs. I cannot understand how a restaurant is unable to inform all its diners, wherever if the client is inside or outside, of its entire menu. We left with a feeling of emptiness and a bit of a scam, also given that the two dishes we ordered (something like a beetroot carpaccio and camembert au patxatran) we found them to be a bit expensive, not very elaborate (especially the camembert au patxaran, which was barely just a warm piece of camembert) and very different from the presentation and appearance of the dishes shown in the photographs of the old reviews. Furthermore, because of the time, we had no other alternatives, and we had to go back to the hotel a little hungry and wanting to try something more delicious. Now, reviewing the photos on Google reviews, I notice that most of them are very old and the signs inside listing all the available dishes are not currently...

Ça c’est un avis , resto très bruyant dans la salle du fond, musique assourdissante, malgré que la jeune serveuse soit sympathique, il manquait les palourdes, le plateau de fromage, c’est un comble car il y a y a un fromager pas loin du resto, il manquait Aussi un autre plat, mais bon , le seul fromage qui était disponible a été 5 tranches tranchées tellement fines, que l’on se voyait à travers, au tarif de 8 € , donc nous avons calculer en gros vu le poids d’une tranche , et ça faisait le fromage à 180 € le kilo, car c’est un produit sûrement rare dans la région. Ca ce n’est rien , vu la saleté du resto, car le mur s’effrite à certains endroits, donc au lieu de nettoyer, on laisse la misère en guise de déco, lamentable, à croire qu,ils ne font jamais le ménage, et vu l’état De la cuisine, peu ragoûtante. Mis à part les tapas , bon en général, le reste ne ressemble pas un resto, et même pas à une cantine. Alors il faut Vraiment éviter...
