We stoped here in our way to Portugal with a mission to have good tapas.  We ordered 17 of them. All were excellent!  The ingredients were fresh and full of flavor.  Pintxo Jamon had amazing tomato base, more tasty than what we tried in bigger cities. The young staff was super friendly and helpful and they spoke good English. We highly recommend Tolono.

Well elaborated & presented tapas and pinchos. They all had plenty of flavours too. Our favorite from "Nuestros Hits" was Txangurro Barra (a crab cocktail). The local wine both red and white from Marqués de Vitoria, a fairly local winery were excellent value in relation to their quality. Service was ok but you have to order and pay at bar,

Very good food, lots of choices of typical pintxos and some particular plate from the kitchen. As most of the bar in this part of Spain there is no table service: you go to the counter and get what you want. the waiters are really cordial and they'll explain every pintxos so you can decide.
The location is very centric and the interior design is modern and comfortable.
