2/10How this restaurant is rated as a Michelin restaurant blows my mind. Their standards must have dropped totally or I don't understand the system. It was absolutely nothing special. The worse part was the uncooked chocolate souffle (which in their defense they did not charge us). The decor (think underground no window 80s dungeon) was honestly just below par. I would not waste money here. There are lots of places better than this one! Including the many pinxos bars. Sorry!
Ikaitz • Owner
Waw, waw, waw... I'm not going to play the game of answering you. I simply ask you that if you return to San Sebastian, limit yourself to going to the pintxos bars... that way you'll be happy and you won't bother going to any other restaurant. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to serve you and we're sorry we didn't meet your expectations. Sincerelly, Estefanía Valenciaga

10/10Outstanding restaurant with top notch food, service, and ambiance. It’s a great spot for a romantic night out or a comfortable setting for a meal with family and friends. The price tag at the end of the night for appetizer, main, dessert and 2 bottles of wine was reasonable, especially compared to any counterpart in the US. I highly recommend Ikaitz.

5.5/10Accident happen - they forgot an entree. They apologized but it then took 20 minutes for that meal to come out and rest of party had finished their food at that point. Problem was - after the mistake we were totally ignored by waitstaff. Had to flag down busboy to get more wine. Bill reflected all charges. Upon leaving the owner, said sorry again and we said we understood mistakes happen but after we were completely ignored. She said oh I didn’t know - which is strange since she was the person who had taken tte order and acted as the waitress! A bummer!!! Had they chatted with us - given the person whose dinner was missing a dessert- wouldn’t be a big deal but being ignored was rude
Ikaitz • Owner
First of all, we appreciate your opinion and, as you say, accidents happen. We are people and we are not perfect. I made a mistake by giving a 1 instead of a 2 and that is why only one dish came out and you had to wait for the other... I apologize again. I accepted my mistake and apologized immediately... Everything else... is simply not true. Alberto was attentive to you at all times. It was impossible to ignore you since you were sitting in the center of the dining room, at a large, round table and in the path for the rest of the tables. He offered to open a second bottle of wine, etc., etc. At this point, it seems that you are looking for any reason to complain. But it is sad and disrespectful to the work of an entire team, that you resort to lies knowing the damage you cause. Anyway, if you are perfect and do not make mistakes, I sincerely congratulate you. But evaluating the service with a 2 out of 10 I think is totally excessive. I hope you never have to be evaluated, Best regards, Estefanía Valenciaga

7.5/10Booked a table for 830. Arrived at 834. Shown to our table but not asked if we wanted an apéritif or wine. Waited for 15 mins with no attention. Finally asked the waitress over to order wine. Came with no ice bucket. Waited another 15 minutes to order. Now been 30 minutes. Food came very quickly and was good but not exceptional. Got charged for the bread roll. We live in France so having to pay for bread at this standard of restaurant is outrageous profiteering. All in all we felt that the restaurant was aimed at getting tourists in and out as fast as possible. We had many other meals in Saint Sebastian which were better and cheaper and more relaxed. Disappointed.
Ikaitz • Owner
First of all, we thank Ian you for your opinion and we apologize if we did not meet your expectations regarding service. We sincerely believe that you were not poorly served, since although the restaurant went from empty to full in less than 5 minutes (you witnessed the invasion), you were served wine before others who had arrived earlier, and the ice bucket, it is true that it took a little while, but not as you say. In reality, what we believe is that you would have liked me (the owner) to pay more attention to you and, for some reason that I cannot say publicly, I was not able to go to your table as much as I would have liked. However, we are glad that you liked the food and if one day you return to Ikaitz we will try to pay more attention to you. Best regards, Estefanía Valenciaga

8.5/10Food was excellent but our service was lacking to the point of feeling forgotten after being seated and prior to selecting dessert and getting/paying the bill.

10/10Terrific food and service. The menu had many wonderful options and the prices are very reasonable. Everything we tried was delicious—grilled octopus, lamb and monkfish. The wine list was also varied with many wines at different price points. The staff was excellent and very welcoming. A fantastic culinary experience!

7.5/10Service a bit lacking no detail about the sauces given either the tuna. I asked the wine person about something on food and he told me he only does wine. A long wait before I was served
