Brunch Martín Berasategui

Great space in the old part of Bilbao for a casual meal that is cooked to very high standards. The croquetas in particular are exceptional. Very good selection of wines. The main improvement point is the service: the team does not demonstrate high professionalism and the person in charge is very arrogant and offers no flexibility.

This was a good meal but not as good as expected. This restaurant was described as Michelin quality, but while the food enjoyable the service underwhelmed and overall experience not memorable. We chose the tasting menu which featured 7 courses. The lead server seemed agitated the entire night and each plate served brusquely with little description. The bread was very good and helpful for many of the dishes included heavy sauces. The salmon dish was the most pleasing, as I rarely enjoy that fish. But it was especially fresh and well prepared. The fried shrimp with two fried eggs the most odd. Three dessert dishes seem excessive as none were home runs. The wine options were quite good. Overall fine, but nothing I will describe in detail to friends nor ever think of again. Also the restaurant was kind of dusty with shelves and bottles needing cleaning. Perhaps an off night for the service team, but certainly not what was expected. We've had good success following Michelin recommendations and typically love the tasting menu format. Not so much this time.

Nice for a casual meal. Some good flavours in general. One person on service running the bar and the restaurant so a little understaffed. Most dishes were very good apart from the main course which we opted for the grilled steak which although nice in flavour, out of the 1.2 kg cut at least half was pure fat which isn't acceptable

Situated at the ground floor of the new Takyo hotel, this bristrot and pinxtos sidekick of the Ola by Michelin starred chef Martin Berasategui’ is set in a post industrial environment, raw metal exposed bricks and graniglia flooring. The lights are quite raw and cold. Definitely not a cozy place. The service is at times as raw as the lights, with exception made for the very professional she sommelier.Tasting menu @ 59 is quite a good purchase to have an overview of the menù with small servings. The quality is a roller coaster: the start of the menu was quite entertaining but the last curve of the menù ended up being disappointing, with the pork served almost raw (!), the French toast completely uncooked and the icy iceberg in the center of the last course. Book in advance as it is often a full house. Service gets unbearably slow when the bodega fills up. Will not be back, sorry.

The food was good, but the waiter try to add one more bottle of vine to our bill, and after we find out he only say “okay, I’ll make a refund” and that’s all. I recommend to check your bill before payment.

Excellent food and wine, but our memorable dining experience is not possible without the service by the lady/manager!

My wife, daughter and I enjoyed a great meal and wine. We did the tasting menu which is very reasonably priced. We obviously had a few bottles of wine which elevated the cost. Our server was extremely friendly and did her best to explain everything in English (and she did just fine). She was fun and energetic. Each course was delicious and gave a good sample of the local fare. Not really sure what a Michelin rated placed is supposed to be but this was a fun experience. Would recommend to anyone visiting.

Restaurant is located at hotel Tayko building. We had a nice breakfast, all fresh, good quality… probably expecting more from this Michelin star restaurant….

Spectacularly good. I have some experience with Michelin starred restaurants and I can assure you that this is the one of the finest I have ever eaten in. Trust me. I'm a doctor. . The epitome of the upper middle class gourmand. And my advice is SPEND THE MONEY and order the 13 course tasting menu. I don't usually even like tasting menus. But this one? 8/13 staggering dishes. Much better than average. And break down and order a bottle of the 2011 Castillo Ygay to go with. Life is short.

It's an honor to be the first. This amazing restaurant inside the hotel Tayko is a true gem. Unassuming, unpretentious, perched up on a second-floor, the amazing service starts at the door. A very knowledgeable sommelier provides an endless array of options to complement the beautiful and delctable spectacle of superb creations in the tasting menu. Hands-down, one of the best places, from service to food, a true winner. ¡Felicitaciones!
