Antonio Bar - Review - Centro - San Sebastián - The Infatuation

"If there were an MVP of pintxo bars in San Sebastián, it’d be Antonio Bar. This three-table spot in the Centro shopping district has everything you want in a pintxo spot: a perfect Spanish omelet, a chalkboard menu of hot dishes, and a bar of cured seafood and mayo-y salads. Antonio stays pleasantly busy at all hours, with locals passing through for a quick coffee or a pintxo before lunch or dinner. But the ideal time to visit is around 12:30 or 1pm for a slice of the 28-egg tortilla de patatas, which is one of the city’s best. Don’t miss the ravioli, and order a plate of whatever fresh produce you see displayed on the bar, whether it’s slim green guindilla peppers or dirt-flecked porcinis." - Marti Buckley

My favourite Spanish omelette place in the whole country. Ultra caramelized onions inside and super thick and juicy. A pity they make very limited amounts (4 in the morning and 2 in the afternoon) so you have to go early if you don’t want to miss it. Other pintxos are very good too.

Best taberna in the town. Food quality, variety and the service. You can sit inside or outside. A bit crowded but worth to wait. Octopus, anchovies, calamari are highly recommended. We’ll visit here again!

They literally have an award just for their tortilla. Best I had in my time in Spain. It was a giant tortilla that was completely gone in 10 minutes. They immediately brought out another -- which was also gone in 10 minutes. We ordered 3 slices between two people! The kitchen opened at 19:00 so we enjoyed the tuna in oil with onions and some mini sandwiches. The owner advised us on the top 4 hot pintxos: the scallops with truffles, the oxtail, the shrimp ravioli (that sauce tasted like ice cream), and the Bruschetta with sardines tuna and pepperinis. All fantastic.

Went here twice for breakfast. Perfectly cooked tortilla de patata with caramelized onions was amazing, although I found it a tad bit salty. Go early... They usually run out of it soon.

One famous youtuber said he tried many tortillas in Spain, this was the king of trotillas. That is why I followed in his footsteps and came to Donostia to try this! It tasted really good.

Best pintxos we had in San Sebastián! Well worth the wait, we waited about 20 mins but were also offered a glass of wine while we waited in line which was a nice touch. The prawn ravioli was the star of the show for us - just so so good! But honestly everything we had was good… croquettes, octopus, scallops, oxtail, and pistachio cheesecake. Service was also incredible - staff were so friendly and always checking in on us. Sit at the bar if you can! It was so good we went back to grab a takeaway breakfast the next day. We got the tortilla and some ham sandwiches - all very yummy!

Who knew tortillas could be this good? The thing that stands out for me is how intense the flavour of caramelised onions is and how the potatoes have a pleasant chewiness about them, probably from being cooked for long periods of time. It’s not usually easy to get from what I’ve read, but I think it worked out very well for us because we were here on a Monday morning at about 9.30am. We saw about 3/4 of a full tortilla when we arrived and it got topped up with a fresh one about half an hour later. Everything else was fantastic as well, from the sandwiches to the freshly squeezed orange juice and the aromatic coffee. Great place for a breakfast. I’m sure it is for a lunch and dinner as well but I can only comment on the breakfast (so far!)

Best tortilla de patata in San Sebastian. You can get a table (or a place at the bar) relatively quick. The tortilla is the best in town, but also other pintxos are good.
