Grill-house · Basque tavern · Vegueta

The Basque Country in the heart of Vegueta

A Basque grill-house of honest classics: produce, fire and tradition in a stone house by the Cathedral. Not a pintxos bar — home cooking, properly done.

The house · Etxea

A piece of the Basque Country, across the Atlantic

Arantxa left her native Basque Country with a simple, stubborn idea: to cook for Vegueta the way you cook at home, no shortcuts. A stone house in the old town, a lit grill, and the classics.

You won't find a pintxos bar here. You'll find txuleta cooked just right, cod pil-pil bound with patience, a proper spoon-deep marmitako, and a cheesecake that needs no introduction. Produce and tradition, told calmly.

A note from the owner

“I brought my mother's cooking and the long Sunday table. If you sit down to eat here, I want you to leave as if you'd just come back from the Basque Country: full and happy.”
Arantxa del Valle — Heads the kitchen

The house draw

The prize-winning tortilla

Winner · Vegueta Tortilla Contest

Rosemary-roasted potato, porcini, foie and pata-negra ham. Set just right, runny within. It won the Vegueta contest and has never left the table since. Order it; it's the best way to start understanding us.

Tabla de quesos con jarra de txakoli y uvas

To drink

Txakoli & cider

Txakoli is poured from a height to wake it up; cider, the same. It's gesture and culture: the long pour, the spritz, the toast. Nothing pairs better with the grill and the fish.
