San Sebastian is all about food. Are you interested in Michelin starred restaurants? tapas places? somewhere in between? A good starting point is to take a look at www.maribelsguides.com. The food in San Sebastian is incredible!
Marija is correct in that Donostia-San Sebastian, as an extension, the Basque and the rest of Green Spain, is all about food.
A few of the place you may want to experience, depending on your budget is:
Akelarre, Paseo Padre Orcolaga, 56 is one of our favorite pleasures (www.alkelarre.net). I suggest taking a taxi instead of driving.
Arzak, Alto de Miracruz, 21 is another evil pleasure, but only when Juan Mari is cooking (www.arzak.es).
Casa Nicolasa, Aldamar, 4 (in the old quarter). Juan Castillo is considered by some to be the father of traditional Basque cuisine.
Other place to try are Kukuarri on Vitoria, 1, Kursalla Martín Berasategui at Avda. Zurriola, 1 Miramon Arbelaitz at Mikeletegui, 53 to name only a few of dozens and dozens of great restaurants in the city. There are even more in the outlying villages and neighborhoods.
Santiago is a bit more limited in it's offerings, but well worth a visit.
And don't forget to check Maribel's Guides for more suggestions.
