We recently visited Los Ferros, a restaurant in the Basque Country, for dinner and opted for the full €64 p/p tasting menu for two. While the experience had some highlights, it ultimately left us disappointed.
The building itself is lovely, and the service was excellent. Our server truly elevated the atmosphere, offering great advice on wine and thoroughly explaining the dishes. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to the expectations set by its Michelin recommendation.
The dishes were just okay—nothing memorable or exceptional—and the presentation was underwhelming, especially considering the price. The portions were minimal, which is acceptable if you’re offering a small-bites experience, but in that case, the ingredients should be of supreme quality. Sadly, this wasn’t the case. For instance, if you consider potato, onion, and lettuce to be a complete meal, this might suffice, but for us, it fell short.
While the service was excellent, the overall dining experience was disappointing.
