Sorgínzulo

Loved their Pintxos. They were delicious and the portion size was generous as well. Fried calamari was amazing and came in a very big portion compared to the price. Highly recommended.

The pintos here look colourful and are very creative. We tried a sausage wrapped in pastry topped with a mini egg. It was expectedly tasty but maybe a little rich with the combined combo. The mushroom and goats cheese pinto was juicy and the combo gave it a moorish quality. Washed down with an ice cold beer and it was a great pit stop.

Fantastic experience, a different and more refined way of eating tapas and bocadillos. Definetly good flavor combinations and high quality with an accessible price range. Order the sortido to try a little bit of each

Did not plan to go here, but when I saw the ambience and it looked cool, I came in and ordered calamares and patatas Callanas serving is big, but it was so good, George the server was very good and attentive, chat with him and talk about Bilbao, try also their signature beer 1870 and very nice and fresh! Highly recommended 👌 👍 👏 💯

Sorginzulo is a little tapas bar on Plaza Nueva in the Old Town of Bilbao. Expect the atmosphere of a busy bar! The staff are friendly and helpful in explaining the tapas offerings. Delicious morsels, friendly staff - great experience!

Nice place for pintxos and drinks! Situated right in the heart of Plaza Nueva, it's a busy place even on a Tuesday, and you'll be lucky to get a table or bar seat. Lots of pintxos on offer and service is swift. The burger & tortilla pintxos were the best, but overall all was good.

I had the best foie here 4 years ago and came back and it was even better than I remembered with great red wine! This place cemented in my brain how much I love the Basque Country. And the staff were super nice!

The best pinxtos in Bilbao! Try the fois gras with popping candy salt and sheep milk brioche. Indescribable goodness.

Pintxo bar experience When walking into a busy pintxo bar, the recommended strategy is to find a stool at the bar and try whatever takes your fancy that's within reach, but do leave some room for the next stop! Sorginzulo is located in one of the corners of Plaza Nueva in Bilbao and is very small. Calamari is their specialty, but it is only served during the weekends. If you are there during the week, no worries! Almost every item is delicious! There were six in our group and all six ordered a couple of pinxos each. No one complained!

Sorginzulo is the place to go for fresh fried calamari, which they proudly explain is available all hours of the day. The place is located in the Plaza Nueva and is surprisingly NOT touristy. This is the first time that I can ever remember having bread that has been colored with squid ink, so that's a thing. I didn't notice any taste difference but black bread that's not pumpernickel? Very different. The fresh fried calamari sandwich with a spicy mayo aioli was amazing. A truly excellent pinxtos. We also enjoyed a bottle of Basque cidre that contrasts well with the fried seafood. Tip: This is where you'll find "the frog" if you're on a scavenger hunt.

We were specifically looking for calamari. They serve it all day every day. Pintxtos were all tasty. Staff was great. Music was fun. It was during siesta time and so almost everybody else was closed, we were happy to find this gem.

The restraint was recommended by a local! You order your pinxto's and beverage at counter. The servers could not give us the time of day. We had no idea what we were ordering and no offer to explain. The server was just a complete jerk to all 4 of us. We had 5 different pinxto's that ranged from good to ok. The crab was fake! Drank some Bilbao white wine, server rolled his eyes when I asked which variety, probably akin to an ok chenin bland. Went next door for our second course and a complete 180!,

We ordered the calamari, shrimp croquettes and they were awesome! Great service, wonderful waiter. Enjoyable Plaza. Highly recommend.

Tastiest pintxos with high quality in the Plaza Nueva. We only sampled a few here. We have been to many pintxo places in the Basque Region and this is really a great place. Very small. Txakoli wine and a few pintxos was the order of the day at each of the places we stopped. We will come back to this place when in Bilbao. Highly recommend.
