Casa Valles

Lovely local tapas and pintxo bar. Really nice selection of traditional cold and hot offers. Choice of seating both indoors and outdoors.

The MOST delicious pintxos stop. Had the original Gilda and a smoked salmon bite - seriously both really clean flavours and the salmon was paired with slightly piquant flavours and no creamy dressing. Great alternative. White wine was lovely and the place was buzzing with locals midday on a Saturday. Initially bit imtimated to order as I don’t have Basque or Spanish - but the service at the bar was very considerate and I’m sure I’m not the first English only speaker to order. I’m here for a few more days and this lively local place is not far from where I’m staying. Would love to come back maybe for a full meal.

On 14/06 around 16:00-16:30 my friend and I got drinks which were good, but the waitress was incredibly rude. She put the bill on our table (both drinks combined) so we asked if we could split the bill and she scoffed, rolled her eyes, and walked away. We were really confused and about 5 minutes later she came near our table and very sassily said they were waiting for us inside to pay. We had only drank half our glasses at this point and were not finished! Very weird and unstable behavior from the waitress and definitely not how any decent person should treat another person. Very unprofessional.

I don't give five stars often, but this restaurant IS Five stars. Server was very nice and commend good enough English to recommend what to order and how many. Two euro local White wine is a must try as well.

We ordered the popular cod omelet, and it surely delivered! Great portion with cod visibly throughout, lots of flavour, but not fishy at all! The popularity is real! Would departure out of my way for another bite of this!

Casa Valles is a small bar restaurant in San Sebastian, and it’s such a lovely and fantastic place. The atmosphere was incredibly welcoming, with extremely friendly and warm Spanish people, as usual. We shared small plates of food and enjoyed rosé and Chardonnay. It was a fantastic experience and a wonderful introduction to Spain. The interior of Casa Valles is charming and cozy, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home, offering recommendations and ensuring we had everything we needed. The food was a delightful mix of traditional Spanish tapas, each dish bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. The rosé and Chardonnay we had were both excellent, pairing beautifully with the variety of small plates we sampled. From fresh seafood to savory meats and cheeses, every bite was a testament to the culinary excellence that San Sebastian is known for. What truly stood out was the genuine hospitality of the staff and the lively, vibrant atmosphere. It felt like a true celebration, with locals and visitors alike enjoying great food and drink in good company. Our afternoon at Casa Valles was not just a meal but an experience, one that left us feeling warmly welcomed and eager to explore more of what Spain has to offer. In summary, Casa Valles provided a memorable dining experience that perfectly encapsulated the warmth and charm of San Sebastian. It was a 100% local atmosphere, making it a must-visit for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the local culture.

Lovely bar restaurant. Unlike others, the place has a waiting list, so it is easier than “hunting” a table. Pintxos were delicious. Service was good and the atmosphere even better

Tasty dishes with a wide range of pintxos to try. The place is quite busy, the waiter’s staff is trying but the service isn’t always first grade. Very good value for money.
