A really nice and interesting spot for somebody who visits from outside of Spain. It was my first experience trying Pintxos and this was probably a pretty authentic one. You choose from the ones offered everywhere on the counter, put them on your plate and try to make eye contact with the very very very busy bar woman. It's a wonder they don't burn out after a day of working, respect. They can heat them up for you, or you just eat them like that. 2,50 per snack is quite hefty in my opinion, but for the experience it's worth it. If you have problems with crowded places though, be warned.

Irrintzi was one of the pintxos bars that I've visited during my stay in Bilbao. My visit was at noon time after lunch time therefore it was crowded but not over crowded, we found a space after minutes of waiting. Their pintxos were mostly over the bread type and at the time that we visited there were 10-12 variations. I noticed that they were renewing the food at a good pace and in every 5-10 minutes several new meals showed up. Most of the food that I tried was delicious especially croquettes and seafood.

Great for gluten-free. You have to tell them you are gluten free when you enter. Then they will give you a menu of what gluten free things they can offer. I will attach the picture. Then, each time you go up to the bar and ask for a new pincho, you NEED to specify you want the *gluten free* version. They will make it for you in the kitchen in the back. Excellent options for gluten free people!! And each pincho is only 2 euro, you keep going up and ordering until you’re done and you pay.

Having tasted so many Pintxos in Bilbao it is safe to say that this place is special. Unassuming interior with function over form this place offers a great new interpretation of the Pintxo. A fusion of Basque culinary delights with an east-asian twist on the whole thing. The owner is a delight and happy to recommend dishes based on your preference. Hard to just pick one here so go ahead an sample them all. Recommended are the pulled pork and fallafel ones. Thanks for having us!

I was very intrigued about trying the local Bilbao ‘pinchos’, but we had to find a gluten-free restaurant as my girlfriend is celiac. After searching on Google, Irrintzi was one of the few places that had gluten-free pinchos. Both the gluten-free and normal pinchos were delicious. They had a good range for both options at good prices. Definitely a must-try for both celiacs and non-celiacs. I will be going back for sure :)

THIS PLACE♥️ In my humble opinion they are the best pintxos in Bilbao quality price. Their cuisine is fusion between traditional basque flavours and European or even Asian dishes. They care a lot about presentation and they are not ‘toast-with-something-on-top’ but mini mains where the flavours where perfectly balanced. I will never forget the octopus carpaccio with potato mousse on top, to die for. 😍
