Just amazing.  Went down with some work mates to grab one of your gourmet sandwiches (I had the Reuben).  Your bread is mind blowing, not to mention the entire sandwich experience.  Crusty on the outside and soft in the middle.  A large sandwich and yet I feel light afterwards.  Not the typical after lunch coma :D  Cannot wait to come back and eat my way through the menu.  5 stars!

Lovely place with a combined restaurant and meat counter. Focus is picking great groceries from specific farms and combining it with seasons and sustainability.

5 months pregnant and craving homemade steak and potatoes whilst on a weekend getaway, we weren’t sure we would find this at the food market. That was until the lovely worker at Erth let us know that we could select our own steak at the butcher and they would prepare it with potatoes and a Caesar salad. I must say, this was the best cooked steak I’ve ever had in my life! 🤤 10/10, highly recommend and thank you for making a pregnant lady very happy.

Great all round.

Top class service. Quick and efficient. Cuisine is fantastic. None of the stagnant bocadillos you see lingering in glass containers all day like other bars. This is fresh cuisine straight from the open kitchen  which makes fantastic viewing.

We had a bunch of plates, including the tuna, beef, squid, peppers and goat cheese.

We got too full to try everything, so maybe keep your plates smaller and try more would be my recommendation. Either way, you will enjoy.

You will be in and out quite quickly. It’s not a place to hang around.

Enjoy!

Willing to do anything for great amazing food ?
Challenge accepted?
Try ordering food at the smallest tapas bar in SS, overcrowded by tourists,  then eating it standing up and being bumped from the sides and back.
Worth it ?
We did come 2x in 2 days. We did order the same exact order of the suckling pig (18e) and razor clam(15e).
Best food you can find here in SS because they cook everything on the spot and not a microwave reheat like most places... Nice warm hot and juicy.
Don't have the wine here, have it across the street where they have better wine and better prices.
Be prepared to jump to the front counter and raise your hands waiting for them to notice you. Otherwise, this place isn't for you.

Often with a queue outside and packed, standing room only within - unless you are one of the very lucky few to grab a table outside. No point in complaining so just embrace the chaotic atmosphere! Certainly worth the wait for their cooked fresh to order pintxos. Everything we tried was sublime!

Perhaps some of the best food you will ever eat standing up. The service is friendly and efficient and the quality of the cookery is standout. I’ve done some of the bigger names in the area but that octopus dish was the best octopus cooking our group had tasted in recent memory, perhaps ever.

A must visit.

I’m a lazy guy but this is one of the few places on earth I don’t mind standing for 2 hours to savour the  pintxos (bar snacks). If you’re not scared of crowds, and are willing to let your hair down, you can get to have one of the most memorable gastronomic experiences that you can get in Europe. The staff is one of the friendliest I have met in Spain, and the blood sausage, octopus and pork ear are hands down 11/10 dishes.
