Eating at "Txoko" restaurant 👍👍

This is a Basque restaurant specialized in fresh grilled fish, and you order individual dishes from the menu or suggestions of the day, with an average price of €60 per person if you order wine, dessert and coffee. They currently have a ⭐4.3 rating in Google Maps and my personal rating was ⭐5.

Specifically, this restaurant is located in the small and beautiful fishing village of Guetaria, full of history (for example, it's the birthplace of the sailor Juan Sebastián Elcano and of couturier Cristóbal Balenciaga) and famous for the quality of its grilled fish and its squid, mostly caught by small fishing boats in the town.

This beautiful town has also a one Michelin starred restaurant that is only dedicated to grilled fish and its fish prices can be, in some cases, around €150 per kilo.
