About KBTXIKI By KBZÓN
A lunch or evening at KBTXIKI By KBZÓN lands differently from the pintxo bars packed around it in the parte vieja. The cooking is creative where the neighbourhood tends to be traditional: ceviche, beef carpaccio, bluefin tuna and pintxos all make the menu, but the dishes are complex enough that regulars treat them as a destination in themselves rather than a stop on a crawl. Staff named Einer and Carlos come up repeatedly — for reading the table well and steering people toward the right order. The room draws a crowd that has done its homework.
What Stands Out
Ceviche and raw fish
Ceviche and beef carpaccio dominate the Google review topics (30 and 21 mentions respectively), and recent reviews praise the food as 'amazing' and 'complex and interesting'.
Staff attentiveness

Creative beyond standard pintxos
