About

The Arandia de Julen, located in the heart of Bilbao’s historic Casco Viejo area, is a celebrated bastion of traditional Basque cuisine. The restaurant offers a richly varied menu that includes signature dishes such as alubias con sacramentos (red beans with sacramental), merluza rebozada (deep‑fry haddock), and the iconic txuleta (flank steak). Each entrée is per‑person and priced from €25 for the children’s menu to €80 for the full‑course Arandia menu. The dining space exudes an intimate, rustic charm, making it perfect for family gatherings, casual lunches, and romantic evenings. Arandia’s lunch hours run from Wednesday through Sunday, from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., with dinner available on Friday and Saturday evenings from 9:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Feel free to call the restaurant’s two phone lines—+34 944 331 086 and +34 615 796 813—to reserve a table, as reservations are not taken via e‑mail or Whatsapp. Whether you’re a seasoned Basque food lover, a family looking for a hearty meal, or simply seeking a relaxed place to enjoy local wine and cuisine, the Arandia de Julen provides an authentic, welcoming experience that captures the soul of Gipuzkoa’s culinary heritage.
