Restaurante Bikandi Etxea — Restaurant in Bilbao

We checked the review on Google and decided to go there. Our first visit was on Friday, they told us it was full for the rest of day so we got kicked out. In addition, the restaurant is closed during the weekend. So we went back on Monday at 12 sharp. They told us the kitchen would not open until 1 pm. Then we waited and walked around the old town and went back at 1:30. We were being shouted by the old woman in Spanish. She possibly thinks if she yelled at us with loud voice we could understand her Spanish. As you can tell by other people's bad review, regardless of the food, they have no spirit of service. They were so impolite to the customers. It's a miracle that they have such a high rating in Google and TripAdvisor, which made me wonder if they bought those review with money. Anyway, if you don't mind being yelled by a stranger, feel free to visit this restaurant. Lastly, there are plenty of better choices in Bilbao, don't just stuck...

Local pequeño tipo taberna, con mesas cuadradas pequeñas, no las conté creo que eran unas 8 mesas. para sentarte , taburetes de madera poco cómodos. para comer el sistema menú con platos que tienen suplemento. No tiene carta para poder pedir platos individuales. El menú tiene precio de 16,50 y de bebida solo nos entró agua en una jarra, el vino dos copas que tomamos ,aparte.

De segundo hígado encebollado sin suplemento, y bacalao gourmet pil pil, en carta 14 € de suplemento, anotaron 15 € , descontaron 1 € en segundo ticket, postres caseros bizcocho de naranja estaba bien, el flan de café, textura buena aunque no sabía apenas a café. La atención de entrada bien, y cuando comentamos los errores en el precio pusieron disculpas ilogicas, diciendo que la sopa de ajo era de bacalao, cuando en el menú solo ponía sopa de ajo y no tenía suplemento ó el que ha escrito la carta lo ha puesto mal. Y en cuanto a la comida no estaba mal, aunque muy cara para lo...

The meal was delicious and generous quantity! Booking a table is a must since the space has limited capacity, they don’t speak English but we were able to accommodate broken Spanish. To order we showed the pictures from Google reviews. All went very well! The anchovies were superb!

The way to order is by Menu 18€ each person with a starter, main dish (fish or meat), desert and coffee. Some dishes need to pay extra...
