Alaia - San Sebastian

wonderful eating with a unique view.

this place is amazing, first we have no reservation, went there and had a very good luck, I am old, so, I complain about everything, anyway I can not complain about them, the adolfo presented himself, who is the cook, and told us to ask the arroz con almejas, we have, it was crazy how good it was. adolfo no no no nos parece muy euskera, asi que te vamos llamar andoni jeje

absolutely one of the best meat restaurants we met in san sebastián in 4 days. pork and bark dishes world class and prices are much more reasonable than dublin. eating next to the views alone is worth a trip here. great

overprice for quality and views depend on their table. the best of this small restaurant is the good location. the hopes are great, unfortunately we couldn't quite enjoy because we sat in the second row. we demand a better table, but we have been rejected. No one sat on the table we wanted to eat during our 2 hours. the service was slow. the served hard brot to the table. 40 minutes until we have ordered. we enjoyed the sangria and the orujo de hiervas. not really so bad because of the view, but they can enjoy the same views near. not recommended, I probably don't come back.

The view from this restaurant is amazing, and that’s really the only reason why you’d go there I’m afraid. The staff are lovely and friendly but also, once you are finished, getting the bill and/or another drink feels like an inconvenience/interruption. I’ve given 2 stars only because of the view, if it were not for that, the food would be 1. Given the food available in San Sebastien, they really need to up their game.

This place is awfull, i was there yesterday expecting to eat some lunch, the time was 3:30pm at the time so i knew they were closing soon but i wanted to get a sandwich or something(witch is normal for my lunch considering i live in norway) i was greeted nicely and when i saw the the meny only had huge dinner like stuff i changed my mind and wanted to explain myself to the staff. They did just shake their heads and tried to get me out of there as soon as possible. Terrible customer service. And fairly expensive. Would not recommend to anyone. And i will absolutely not go back.

Spectacular location and view, terrible service, expensive and mediocre food. Sat without any attention from waiters about 40 minutes in 1 hour of total time spent there. They just ignored us. We didn’t quarrel over the bread included in the bill, although we didn’t order it.

Horrible service. We didn't know if it was a restaurant or a Cafe. We sat down, they appeared nice, and when we decided we weren't that hungry, and just wanted a sandwich they gave us the coldest reactions ever. Didn't even let us finish what we were saying so they could get us out of there. Would absolutely not recommend.
