Austin’s take on a San Sebastián. Style pintxos bar tucked inside the Arrive Hotel on East 6th, built around Basque and Andalusian small plates and a serious Spanish wine program. Gildas, carabinero prawns with smoked paprika butter, and an unapologetically luxe ham plate anchor the menu, while porrón pours and a deep Rioja list turn the whole experience into something meant to stretch into a second bottle without much debate.
Spanish egg and potato omelette, served in thick wedges — a pintxos bar staple.
Mushrooms on toast crowned with a quail egg; the kitchen's best pintxo.
Basque pintxo: anchovy, guindilla pepper, and olive on a skewer. One bite, maximum Spain.
Enormous red prawns roasted in the shell with smoked paprika butter.
