"Energetic Basque native Javier Fabo has the most underrated tasting menu in town. His intimate space on Zaragoza Street is an ode to his home neighborhood outside San Sebastián, for which the restaurant is named; on the walls, his mother’s paintings depict scenes from San Sebastián, and his father personally built the cabinetry with wood he drove down from the north. While the menu includes finessed versions of traditional Basque dishes, Fabo also pays his respects to the Andalusian pantry. Operating with miniscule fridge space, he visits the neighborhood market every other day for hyper-fresh ingredients. That commitment shows in every dish, from the ever-changing seafood tartares to the vibrant Basque stews, all smartly executed." - Megan Lloyd
