Bilbao and the Basque Country Restaurants

El Portalón

El Portalón Review

With dark, creaky wood floors and staircases, bare brick walls, and ancient beams, pillars, and coats of arms, this rough and rustic 15th-century inn turns out classical Castilian and Basque specialties that reflect Vitoria's geography and social history. The wine cellar is a gold mine. Try the lomo de cebón asado en su jugo con puré de manzanas (filet mignon with apple puree) or any of the merluza (hake) preparations.
