€€ ・ Traditional Cuisine,Modern Cuisine
A delicious place to eat in a verdant spot at the foot of the Ispéguy Pass. The authentic Basque house has an attractive narrow dining area, the bright white of which echoes the immaculate garb of the Basque pelota players pictured on the walls. The market-fresh cuisine is seasonal and gives pride of place to local produce. Be sure to try the trout with blue cheese – straight from the restaurant's tank, the fish couldn't be fresher. In summer, tables are set up on the terrace, which is lined with plane trees. After your meal, stroll along the ivy-clad metal footbridge spanning the River Nive.
