Nestled in the Ondarreta neighborhood of San Sebastián, Portuetxe Erretegia is a Basque establishment that serves up delicious seafood and steak dishes. The ambiance is cozy and intimate, with rustic decor and white tablecloths. The interior design is traditional, with wooden beams and stone walls adding to the homey atmosphere. Prices here are on the higher side, but the quality of the food more than justifies it.

One of the standout features of this fine dining spot is its outdoor seating area, which is perfect for enjoying a sunny day while sipping on a glass of Txakoli, a crisp white wine from the Basque region. The menu is primarily seafood-focused, with dishes like grilled turbot, hake in green sauce, and squid in ink. The steak options are also noteworthy, with the cow cutlet being a particular favorite.

To start, diners can try the piparras fritas (fried green peppers) or the revuelto de kokotxas (scrambled eggs with hake cheeks). For cocktails, the establishment offers classic drinks like gin and tonics and mojitos, as well as a variety of soft drinks. The wine list is extensive, with many local options to choose from.

Overall, Portuetxe Erretegia is a must-visit eatery for anyone looking for traditional Basque cuisine in San Sebastián. Its charming atmosphere, delicious food, and extensive drink options make it a great spot for a romantic dinner or special occasion.

An essential classic. Located in an old and authentic farmhouse far from the tourist center (and therefore from tourists), surrounded by modern office buildings with which it contrasts. Portuetxe is a safe bet if you are looking for an authentic traditional Basque steakhouse. The grill is the protagonist with meats and fish (mostly sold by weight) and with some non-grilled delicacies, such as scrambled eggs with kokotxas, one of their star dishes. Impeccable service in the room, correct wine cellar (like the food menu: direct, without unnecessary frills). The raw materials are of excellent quality and the portions are generous, so it is not a restaurant with popular prices, but the quality/price ratio is excellent. It has parking for customers and a taxi ride from the center costs twelve euros. Turbot is highly recommended for sharing, always sold by weight and always in large sizes (today it was recommended for three). Homemade desserts like the menu: Basque, typical and quality.
