This small eatery, dominated by a long counter with seating for 12 customers, is run by couple Germán and Anali, two cooks who have added their own take on Basque cooking by introducing culinary insights from their native Peru. The à la carte, featuring unmissable dishes such as the scallop "gilda" and "causa" with tuna tartare, is complemented by an extensive tasting menu.
