"A restaurant with a distinct maritime feel and views of the port. It features attractive dining rooms, a live seafood tank, an excellent wine cellar and, the star of the show, an outdoor open grill on the street." - Michelin Inspector

"Fabulous Grilled Fish, Option #2 “A poorly grilled turbot is a turbot that has died in vain." This is the motto that hangs in Kai Kaipe, one of the two stars in a village that really shouldn't have any. They specialize, like Elkano, in grilled fish. Locals who prefer Kai Kaipe do so for the wine list and the ambience."

The dining room was very nice with a large window providing harbor views from just about any table. The food and service were good but a little pricey mostly due to the Michelin sign at the door I presume.

If you can forgive that sometimes service is not great because of the very large number of customers they serve daily and that not all of them are professionals of hospitality, I would say this is the best restaurant in Getaria. Definitely so if just evaluating the food quality, taste, cooking point and portions. In addition to the grilled fish (turbot is the most popular, besugo my favourite), the daily specials are fantastic, like fresh anchovies.

Great food, but just ok service.. If you want better you must go to Elkano, a hard to get reservation in the same town. Get the grilled rodaballo.This place is also operating since the 60s like Elkano nearby. Great wine selection with the grill is outside, which is typical of the region. Not happy with the waitress which was poorly trained or was just lazy, service in Spain is very different from the U.S., we are well aware of that, but in this case it was really bad.

Overpriced tourist trap. 40 euros per tiny langoustine. Asked how much it would cost but the bill should never come as a surprise. If you want nice fish in Getaria you should go for Elkano not here

We had lunch here as a family four and it was amazing! My husband and I split the Turbot and it was some of the best fish I’ve had (and I don’t really like fish). Very simple but amazing flavors. We had an amazing view of the coast.

Delicious food and accommodating staff. We ordered the turbot, which was grilled and doused in olive oil. It had a wonderful meaty and buttery texture and the size of the portions were very filling for two! To accompany this, we had the tuna tataki and a side salad. We finished the evening with a raspberry puff pastry and cheese ice cream, both of which I would highly recommend.

Unflamboyantly positioned in a quiet seaside town in the Basque sits this gem. A comprehensive seafood and turf menu awaits in true basque fashion mostly cooked over hot coals. I would particularly recommend the Basque cheesecake. It is expensive however, so be prepared to shell out.

Fantastic seafood restaurant overlooking the fishing port of Getaria. The grilled turbot was awesome. The prawns a dream. The wine list is very comprehensive. Also a must try is the home made cheese ice cream. No chance to get a table without reservation, especially in the summer. Service is impeccable.
