Bar Nestor

One of San Sebastian's most renowned and beloved culinary icons. Selling only two tortillas each day, people come from all over the world to wait in line for a salty, melt-in-your-mouth slice of tortilla and a glass of Spanish wine.

Take one bite of their infamous Txuleta steak and tortillas and you'll understand why Bar Nestor is one of San Sebastian's most renowned and beloved culinary icons. Selling only two tortillas each day, people come from all over the world to wait in line for a salty, melt-in-your-mouth slice of tortilla and a glass of Spanish wine. The family-run venue has been operating since 1980, with a cult following of local and foreign customers. The menu features no more than 5 items and sells out every day.

"Incredible San Sebastian institution serving up sensational retired dairy cow beef on the bone (Txuleta), local tomato salad, and grilled padron peppers. Be sure to get there and be prepared to queue for their legendary tortilla, as only two are prepared each day, and it sells out in minutes"
