About Kasko jatetxea

Creative Basque cooking with an international edge, and a live pianist who actually changes the room — that combination is rare in the Casco Viejo. The kitchen turns out a menú del día that fills the place at lunch, and the paella keeps drawing people back, including a vegetarian version that reviewers single out. Pintxos and croquetas are the thing to order if you're not sitting down for a full meal. The Google profile describes the décor as peculiar, and the pianist performing inside the dining room gives the whole evening a warmth that is hard to manufacture. Gluten-free diners are well looked after: the kitchen handles cross-contamination carefully and the staff know what they're doing. Weekends book up fast — a reservation is not optional.

Kasko jatetxea is one of those places where the dessert menu is not an afterthought — a detail regulars tend to mention first.

In the last 90 days, Kasko jatetxea has drawn 40 substantial written reviews (50+ characters of genuine feedback) — recent momentum that is one of the signals behind its place on the hot list.
