    We dined at Las Lias on Saturday night. They were serving a fixed menu for the holidays. The starter was a sesame tuna salad, followed burrata and heirloom tomatoes. The main course was lean steak grilled at the table. Tastes were sensitive. Service was impeccable. A wonderful experience.

    The set luncheon menu was fabulous especially with the wine pairings. The burrata with shaved truffles and tomatoes exceeded any version we’ve tried previously - we will be talking about it for years. My sons (28 and 26) devoured the beef. And the French toast dessert was unique and memorable. What also made it special was they were able to customize the menu for one member of our party who has a gluten intolerance. The service was top notch! I highly recommend this small gem.

    Tapas, starters, and main courses impressed with generous portions. However, dessert plating fell short. Unfortunately, our waiter's attitude and service issues overshadowed the culinary delights: - Language barriers (English-Spanish) led to frustration - Threw bread onto the table - Dripped wine while pouring - Dismissive attitude (shaking head, 'what the hell' look) when asked for mustard - Clanging dishes: loudly stacked plates while serving our table without manner. Expected more from a Michelin-recommended restaurant.

    We had a really nice meal at Las Lias. We started with a delicious beef tartare prepared at the fable followed by scallops stuffed with crab. For main course we shared beautiful fresh monkfish filleted and served at the table. Service was friendly and prompt. We enjoyed some glasses of Albariño ond white Rioja. The restaurant itself is cosy with a very nice atmosphere. We would happily go again

    The booking went well, but the food was not anything near a Michelin recommendation. The first course was an enormous burrata with too little accompanying tomatoes. Next course was a scallop (but only the shell) with spider crab. The main course was entrecôte- where we only had one to share, all though we paid for 2 menues. The accompanying french fries were totally dry and cold - and not crispy. The dessert was a French toast with ice-cream - and was ok, but quite ordinary. So sorry to say, it was not nearly worth the 62 Euro we payed for the food, so no recommendations from us.

    Friendly staff. Happy quiet experience. Our 12 year old daughter and 10 year old son were nervous about the food and menu but they thoroughly enjoyed it. Decent steak, and brownie delightful. Recommend the cheese cake. Good wine recommendations.

    The tuna tartara was very good (36 €!) and I would have used different dressing than soya sauce, scallops were ok but in the same standard of other places. In general I would have expected more from this restaurant named also in Michelin guide.

    Good ambiance with good matching honest food and wines. One remark: plates for fish dish could be warmer to keep the warmth in the food itself for a longer period. But all other perfect taste and perfect combinations of flavours.

    The food was inconsistent, with the scallops and crab dish being a notable letdown—it was very salty to the point that the other flavors were subverted. The waiter was a bit too pushy for our liking. The ambiance was terrific.

    Overall it was a nice experience and restaurant. The challenge is that when the restaurant has a Michelin rating, the expectation goes up. I had Halibut with Chips and the price was €37.00 and though it was good, it was not €37.00 good. And the dessert for cheesecake was subpar given we have had some amazing cheesecake here in Bilbao, but not here. It comes down to value and they missed the mark a bit in that aspect.

    Really exceptional restaurant, with excellent and very knowledgeable service, and and intense pride in showcasing local produce. Genuinely some of the most wonderful tomatoes I’ve ever eaten, beautifully paired with local wines that just created joyful flavor combinations. Fresh, exciting and genuinely local food and wine prepared and served with passion.

    Everyone was good except that they didn’t inform us of the weight and price of the fish of the day. Was surprised to see that the fish was more expensive than my 1.45kg of steak.

    Loved our server. He was knowledgeable about the food and especially about the wines! Our server got busy with other patrons so the pace was uneven. I would recommend nonetheless.

    Decent food served very quickly, but I hadn’t realised that this was more of a pinxtos (tapas) bar than an actual restaurant. I had some very nice, if pricy, anchovies and a spectacular cheesecake with ice cream on top. But I couldn’t escape the feeling that I’d had a starter and desert but no main course. That said, the service was quick and friendly and the waiter spoke very good English.

    We had a Nice evening in this little restaurant, friendly service,and good food. We only advice to choose from the menu with prices because otherwise you will be surprised. We took the recomendation of the wine from the region and did not ask for the price, The price seemed to be 52 euros on the bill, they should have told this! This was for us an unexpected lesson

    Food is ok, good quality, and service is adequate. We had a bad experience with “pescado del dia” (fish of the day): make sure to ask about price per kg. and weight, because we didn’t, and they did not make it clear before, so once the bill arrived there was no way to claim about a 1,4 kg of lubina for two.

    Small restaurant, most successful with standing customers with wine by the glass. The menu is relatively small, but covers all tastes. We especially liked the salad with burrata and tomato with truffle. Also the grilled calamari and the sweet brownie.. We found the oysters too oily, and the croquettes were bland. The place did not meet our expectations, and the price for our meal was relatively high. 2 people about 98 euros

    The food was simply excellent, nothing to fault. I am coeliac and could eat most dishes. I was even given a lovely GF bread roll, warmed - the little details make it even more memorable. The staff are lovely. Highly recommended.
