This restaurant occupies a remotely located farmhouse with centuries of history behind it as well as the benefit of a picturesque backdrop. It is enthusiastically run by Maider Larrañaga and Igor Ezpeleta, with the former in charge of the dining room and acting as sommelier (effortlessly managing a cellar with over 1 000 labels) and the latter conjuring up cuisine that showcases the true soul of the Basque region in the kitchen.

Food-lovers flock to this temple of cuisine like pilgrims to a religious shrine in order to unearth the secrets of flame-grilled cooking that have been mastered by Etxebarri’s owner-chef Bittor Arginzoniz, the life and soul of this restaurant and someone who has invested everything in his dream here.

Traditional Cuisine

In this centrally located family-run property, which has close ties with the soil and has been in business for over 25 years, the focus is on traditional cuisine with a contemporary twist, an honest approach and locally sourced seasonal ingredients. The cuisine is centred on two menus, one daily version, the second a tasting option – on the latter guests can choose a main dish from a list of different options. We can highly recommend the braised veal cheek with port wine.
