Restaurant du Chene sur Itxassou

13/05/2024: We had reserved a table for a family lunch this Thursday, May 9 and we were delighted! Both for the decor, terrace in the heart of the Basque greenery, and for the beauty and quality of the dishes. We had a blast! As for the service, it is top notch. Smiles and little jokes are there. Everything is there to have a great time.
