Itsaspe
About
Itsaspe is a family‑friendly Basque restaurant located in the picturesque town of Hondarribia, right on the seafront. The lively, rustic atmosphere balances traditional Basque décor with a modern twist, offering guests a relaxed yet refined dining experience. Menus are highly varied, ranging from daily specials to tailored menus for corporate gatherings, weddings or celebrations, and start at €25 per person, with the most elaborate menus reaching €50. Classic Basque dishes such as txangurro (sea‑urchin), pintxos and grilled Iberian meats are served alongside Mediterranean influences, creating a flavorful fusion that appeals to adventurous palates. The setting is enhanced by an olive‑tree terrace that overlooks the harbor, a perfect spot for afternoon or sunset dining. Guests can enjoy a lunch or dinner menu that includes a wide range of starters (croquetas, sardines, canes), hearty mains (merluza, bacalao, lamb fillet) and indulgent desserts (torrija, cheesecake). The restaurant guarantees a high‑quality experience with tables accommodating from eight to ten guests, and offers reservations, high‑chair availability, and an intimate TV‑covered bar area. Itsacemake, the owner‑chef, personalises menus to celebrate special moments, ensuring each visit is memorable and authentic. With open hours from 10:00 to 15:30 and again from 20:00 to 23:00 daily, its approachable service and welcoming ambience make It’saspe a must‑stop for both locals and visitors seeking genuine Basque hospitality and Mediterranean culinary delights.
