Our particulary identity

The Basque Country, culinary nation and paradise of Michelin star restaurants

Many reviewers regard the Basque Country as having one of the most varied and extensive gastronomies in the world.

Innovation and excellence also apply to haute cuisine in the Basque Country, which has the highest per capita concentration of Michelin star restaurants in the world. To be specific, the Basque Country boasts a total of 33 stars from 23 restaurants spread across the territory of Euskadi.

Furthermore, recognition of the quality and exquisiteness of Basque restaurants can be found in the 2024 list of the world’s 50 best restaurants. The British publishing group William Reed Business Media draws up this list and two world’s best restaurants are located in the Basque Country: Etxebarri (2nd) and Elkano (28th).

The finest products of the Basque Country can be enjoyed in these famous restaurants, ranging from freshly caught fish and seafood from the Cantabrian Sea to top quality meats that melt in the mouth, washed down with excellent wines from the region’s top wineries. All of these restaurants have their own stamp of uniqueness.
