Review Summary

Across the reviews, Pintxo is praised for well executed dishes and attentive service, with highlights including octopus, lamb, scallops, and calamari, and a strong wine list that complements the tapas. Diners describe a vibrant, authentic Spanish vibe and consistently good value, with meals that feel creative, flavorful, and well presented thanks to fresh ingredients. The menu is often noted as delicious and satisfying, and many guests say they would gladly return, sometimes for a lunch before travel or a lively dinner. A few caveats appear about portions that feel small for the price, occasional inconsistency in flavor, and a noisy ambiance at times, with some comments on hygiene in a particular visit. Overall Pintxo comes across as a memorable tapas destination that delivers tasty food, friendly service, and a lively atmosphere that leaves a lasting impression on guests.

A little hard to find as it is located within La Centrale.. food was amazing & great wine too!

Un joli bar & un beau petit espace pour ce bar à tapas. Malheureusement, les tapas proposés ne sont pas à la hauteur (surcuisson, pas assez assaisoné, manque de saveur) & en trop faible quantité par assiette. La sangria blanche n'est pas goûteuse. Un super service néanmoins.

Amazing food, fantastic cocktails, warm & friendly staff. The creativity of the dishes, superb! You must try the lobster onn a bed of barley! & the scallops in a Serrano sauce. The owner was formidable host.

Nos amis nous ont recommandé ce restaurant de tapas Pinxto. Quelle découverte incroyable ! Ce fut, sans l'ombre d'un doute, l'un des meilleurs repas que nous ayons eu depuis bien longtemps. Dès les premières bouchées, nous avons su que nous étions dans un lieu exceptionnel. La pieuvre, les pétoncles, les crevettes & les calmars étaient parfaitement cuits, chaque bouchée révélant des saveurs raffinées & délicates. Quant aux suggestions de notre serveuse, elles se sont révélées être de véritables pépites culinaires. Les betteraves accompagnées de saumon fumé étaient une belle surprise de fraîcheur & de contraste, & la salade Halloumi & chorizo nous a régalés avec ses accords savoureux. Chaque plat nous a transportés & nous a rappelé à quel point la cuisine peut être une véritable expérience sensorielle. Nous y retournerons sans hésitation &, sans doute, il deviendra rapidement l'un de nos endroits favoris.

Todo espectacular lo más parecido a la comida espanola que he visto en otro país. Las bravas, calamares, pulpo, gambas, vieiras, croquetas, embutido, y carne de falda con piquillo y trigueros... todo buenísimo y a buen precio

An absolutely lovely meal. We tried 5 different items & each was delightful & excellent. I don't think you can go wrong with what you try on the menu.

I picked this location based on reviews & decided to try it out on a Friday night. I had a hard time to find the spot & having better signage would be really helpful. The food is AMAZING; I highly recommend to come here for good tapas. Beside food, everything else average or below. The service was underwhelming; as a solo diner I felt abandoned & left quickly.
