Jewel In San Sebastian
I booked Rekondo for Sunday lunch and it was a great experience . From the moment we arrived and were greeted by Lourdes we knew we were in for a treat . The restaurant was about 1.5 miles from our hotel on the beach in an elevated position . The food was outstanding - for starters we had stuffed artichoke and prawns and for the mains we had hake and sole . Everything was excellent and the staff were professional but relaxed . Every table was full of both locals and some tourist . I would highly recommend .
Be the first to ReplyFood was great - request tour of wine cellar
We ate at Rekondo on a rainy night. The restaurant was warm and cozy and the staff welcoming and helpful. As we were approaching the end of our 10 day trip, we were thankful for the ability to order a-la-carte. The seafood was some of the freshest we've ever had and the beef was prepared in the local style. The wine list was expansive and the Sommelier was extremely helpful introducing us to a couple of wines we have never had from northern Spain. I highly recommend taking a tour of the wine cellar which is massive and takes up the entire lower level of the building.

We loved everything. The food, the service, the wine and the tour of the famous cellar. Fabulous evening. Would return!

This is definitely among the best five restaurants we have been to, all over the world. The food was excellent, the service was incredible (the crew were extremely modest, welcoming and friendly) and the atmosphere was as cozy as it could get. The primary experience was wine! We will never forget the wine menu and the cellar this place has. If we go to San Sebastian again, we will certainly want to dine again at Rekondo. The best!

Sitting on the hilltop, overlooking San Sebastian, is this friendly and delicious restaurant. The food was fabulous, the service was impeccable but the big secret is the cellar! I had to choose a bottle of wine from a wine BOOK of over 300 pages!!! The sommelier was super helpful and helped us choose a delicious 2016 Valenciso Reserva. The dinner was delightful and if you have never tried suckling pig, I would absolutely suggest it.
Be the first to ReplyFood was amazing - service was not!
This was our last restaurant on our last evening in San Sebastián. Every one we mentioned it to, said how amazing it was so expectations were high. The food was amazing and could not fault it - the filet mignon was cooked to perfection and really juicy. The service however was the complete opposite and really disappointing. The ambience in the restaurant was silence when we arrived - not even background music was playing to cut through the lack of noise. I’ve never had to whisper in a restaurant. I would go back for the food but not for the service.

This place was highly recommended to us and, after a gruelling six hour drive from Poitiers, we were looking forward to a relaxing evening with high quality food and service: we had neither. Chef, by all accounts, creates dishes that would please the Gods, please them that is if the Gods managed to get past the young manageress on arrival. Our mistake was to arrive at 8:10 and not 8:30. I apologised for being early and was told the restaurant was closed until 8:30. I asked if it would be possible to sit at one of the tables in the courtyard and have a drink with my wife until our table was ready. I was told that it would not be possible. I asked her if she expected us to wait on the roadside until it would be her pleasure to admit us. She repeated her position. I had seen enough road that day and certainly wasn’t going to be treated in this manner so we turned tail. It seems to me that this is a restaurant that has grown too big for its own boots; one that has reached such culinary heights that it places its own demands above decent consideration of their customers’ comfort. There is only one inevitable end for places like this. So we went instead to a fabulous cosy welcoming restaurant called Gandarias (google it) in San Sebastian’s old town where the Gods would have been delighted with the food and especially with the friendly service they received.

Do the Michelin stars if you want, but don't forget places with no Michelin stars also do an excellent meal. Take Rekondo for instance. It's setting is up on a hillside. There is a pretty terrace you can sit at, or indoor dining if you like. Starched table cloths aside, the staff are warm and attentive. Menu is heavy on excellent seafood with some grilled meat options. Typical Basque cooking, I had a very comforting fish soup which settled my tummy. If you like to browse the wine list, they happily give you their wine bible and leave you for 15 min to oggle their collection, the oldest one my hubby saw was 1880! Prices set us back €100 a head including a full bottle of wine. Not bad considering our 3 Michelin stars the night before cost 4X more.
Be the first to ReplyExtremely Disappointing
Not the experience we were expecting. Starting with service, from the moment we arrived everything was in disarray. Seating was confusing and unwelcoming even though the reservations were made months in advance. The wine list is extensive but the staff lacks knowledge as to the offerings. When we did get help we ordered a 1986 wine that was extremely good but served totally incorrectly. The first pore resulted in cork in my glass which was brushed off by the server with a laugh. The bottle was not decanted even though it was required. Nothing about the service all night resembled 4 star service. Some tables had oil or butter for bread other non. It was just not attentive service The food. I will give the crab an A+ but that’s where the quality ended. The Suckling pig was interesting but so sweet it was unpleasant. My husband orders his steak medium but it was served raw. The Shrimp carpaccio was Ok at best but again, nothing worthy of exceptional. With so many fine Michelin starred and rated restaurants in the San Sebastian area I would recommend avoiding this one.

Very good dinner for our last night on our wine & dine tour of Rioja & San Sebastián with 14 of us. They coped really well as we are a hard gig as a fine dining club. Wine excellent. I loved a simple fillet steak and chips to finish with. Well done all the team.
Be the first to ReplyVery good wine cellar
A restaurant with traditional Basque food that has an exceptional wine cellar. And the attention was very good.
Be the first to ReplyHighly recommended
Great location, fantastic service and mouthwatering food!
The Carpaccio de Carabineros and the the arroz con almejas are a must.
Anything from the BBQ is also highly recommended.
Huge wine list and spot on recommendations by the sommelier!
Good meal but odd ‘rules’
Our meal was nice & the sommelier chose a lovely wine by the glass. However, how can the waiter taking our order say that my main course (sole) couldn’t have any vegetables with it & yet the table next door had a vegetable side? Is this one rule for locals & one for tourists? He said I could have a portion of fries instead but they never arrived.
The food we received was beautifully cooked & very tasty.
Disappointing
Perhaps because this restaurant was hyped up to me I am more disappointed by the experience - I was expecting more than it offered. The service was frankly bizarre, not particularly attentive, a 'sommelier' who was guarded, didn't really explain the wine he was offering until you tried it, as opposed to providing options. To be fair to him though he seemed to be the only person dealing with the wine in a busy restaurant. Our 'waiter' we saw twice, to take our order and to pay the bill. My friend was interested in the Hake Kokotxas, the waiter described it to us as akin to eating fish eyeballs. It turns out this is a great delicacy and something my friend would have liked to have tried but we just don't know why he didn't sell the dish. Bizarrely the hot fresh bread was laid out on all the tables, in some cases an hour before the guests arrived. We asked for butter to go with the bread, we got oil having been told we couldn't get butter because of covid, only to get the butter once i had eaten my bread. My starter was lovely - black pudding, egg and white truffle. For my main i had 1 kilo lobster, pretty impressive but that was the only impressive thing about it, it was cooked well, but nothing to right home about. Desserts, so-so although my friend enjoyed her mascarpone ice-cream. There were a team of servers and plate collectors who were on the ball and attentive so kudos to them. On checking my bill the next day we were over-charged with an extra glass of champagne.
