We had lunch here with my family, and from the very moment we walked in, the impression was overwhelmingly positive. The décor is stunning:warm, welcoming, and beautifully designed. It has a cozy, almost Nordic feel that evokes the Basque Country in a refined and elegant way. The restaurant is quite spacious, with several distinct rooms, each offering a slightly different atmosphere, yet all connected by a coherent design concept. It feels as though multiple spaces have been thoughtfully brought together to form a single, harmonious home.

The service was even worse than the food. I have lived in multiple countries (Spain, US, and UK) and also travelled quite a lot and I can honestly say that our waitress was about the rudest I have ever encountered in my life. I cannot speak about the other servers, but the bad manners and lack of customer service skills of our particular waitress were appalling on so many levels. The manager would do well to require her to learn some customer service etiquette. I will never eat here again. If you want a poor dinning...
