About Ein Prosit
Ein Prosit is a German restaurant in Abando, which means you're eating schnitzel and sausages a 10-minute walk from the Guggenheim instead of pintxos in the Casco Viejo. It's sit-down, table service, proper restaurant—not a standing counter operation. The room's got that beer-hall energy without the volume, the kind of place where €18 gets you a decent schnitzel with potato salad and a beer. They do the German classics competently: bratwurst, sauerbraten, spätzle. The wine list is mostly German whites and some Spanish reds, which tells you they're not pretending to be something they're not. It's honest food at honest prices, which in Bilbao's tourist quarter (Abando) counts for something. You'll see locals here, which is rare for this zone. The ratings (4.4 stars, 2498 reviews) suggest consistency rather than revelation—it does what it says it does.
What Stands Out
Honest pricing for the zone
Schnitzel and beer at €18–22, compared to €35+ for similar portions at seafront restaurants. You're paying for food, not location tax.
Consistent execution
2498 reviews at 4.4 stars means the kitchen doesn't drift. Schnitzel's properly pounded, sausages are quality, sides aren't afterthoughts.
Actual local presence
Rare for Abandoibarra. Germans and Spanish regulars, not just tourists cycling through. That's the real rating.

Frequently Asked Questions about Ein Prosit
Yes, especially weekends. It's table service, not a walk-up counter. Call ahead or book online—this place fills up.
It's a sit-down restaurant. If you want the standing-counter txikiteo experience, walk to the Casco Viejo instead. This is proper German dining, table and all.
Because sometimes you want schnitzel, not more seafood. The prices won't crush you, the kitchen's reliable, and you'll actually see locals eating here instead of tourists.
