SEE FULL REVIEW AND PICTURES AT http://www.restaurantcritic.eu/the-reviews/spain/bar-zeruko Overall rating: 3/10 I was recommended by someone into food to go to Bar Zeruko for pintxos. What a disappointment! Okay, I only tried two (or was it three?) pintxos, which doesn’t say something about the whole repertoire of the restaurant. Admittedly, the pintxo I had with hake was not bad, but it... More

Great food. Not your average pinchos, much more "foodie" than the other places. Super crowded on a friday night but worth the effort. Don't count on being able to sit or order easily but the food makes up for it.

Came in here with colleagues on the recommendation of a San Sebastian native. Very modern-looking bar with inventive cold tapas, as well as hot. The hot bacalao tapas was -according to my colleague - a Spanish variant on ackee and saltfish - and great. The warm foie tapas was lovely , as were the cold anchovy tapas that we dug... More

Wow. The food is incredible and the staff make it easy. We were very lucky to sit next to a lovely French couple that have been here numerous times. And when the French say 'you must try the dessert it is an event' you don't question - you just order! Bob Limon dessert - one of the most amazing food... More

It was all Food-Art without the price tag. Dishes smoked, came with smelling drinks, shimmered. Almost too pretty and fun to actually consume. Expect a little party for your eyes & mouth!

The display of food was mouth watering. The setting was very modern and different for Pinchox bar. Too many choices but all tasty.

unusual look for a pintxos bar and had a good selection of pintxos including tempura de verduras which were light, tasty and filling.

Modern pintxo but still with great flavours this a must for all on a pintxo tour of San Sebastián. The bar is packed full of art like pintxo and is one of the best in town.

Zeruko is the Arzak of the tapas and I'm from Donostia. My advice is to order the "menu de degustación / tasting menu) (35 euros) otherwise you'll get confused with some many options, at least the first time you visit. 7 small courses including dessert. I promise, you won't get disappointed with each of the amazing tapas. If you have... More
