## What stands out
- **Daily-changing home cooking** — Reviewers praise 'comida casera hecha con mimo' (home cooking made with care) and note the menu changes daily. One visitor had the menu written on a napkin by staff because there's no fixed list — just what's cooked that day. Dishes mentioned include tortilla de patatas ('espectacular'), callos, and beans.
- **Generous portions, honest price** — Multiple reviewers highlight portion size: 'I was pleasantly surprised by how generous the portions were' and 'raciones generosas' (generous servings). The €18–20 menu is called 'calidad precio insuperable' (unbeatable value for money) and 'precio honesto' (honest price).
- **Personal, attentive service** — Reviewers describe Izaskun and Mario as 'cercanos' (close/warm) and 'súper simpáticos' (super friendly). One visitor noted staff left a bottle of good wine on the table unprompted. Another praised how staff helped a non-Spanish speaker by writing the menu on a napkin.

## Common questions
**What's the menu like?**

**Do I need to book?**

No online booking. It's walk-in only, but it fills up by 12:30 on weekdays. Arrive before noon if you want a table without waiting. Cash only.

**When's it open?**

Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm. Closed weekends. Kitchen stops taking orders at 5pm.

**What do people order?**

The menu is the menu — you eat what Izaskun's cooked that day. Reviewers specifically praise the tortilla de patatas, callos, and beans. The wine list is small but good. Coffee's worth ordering too.
