Restaurante
Hartza, Juan de Labrit, 19 bajo, Pamplona -
Iruña
Classic Navarran Basque Cuisine
Moderate to Expensive - 
Reservations at this simple, yet elegant restaurant
are recommended well in advance, especially during
fiesta. Set in a turn of the century residence
directly across the street from the Plaza de Toros,
this restaurant is well deserving of its praise.
The owners, three sisters; Juli, Mari and Manoli,
and their staff, women in period dress, are an
asset to the family atmosphere that pervades this
establishment. Try the alubias (red beans from
Tolosa), its menestra (a vegetable medley) and
costillas (baby lamb chops), or a dish of the wild
mushrooms, "perretxikos". When you order your after
dinner brandy, don't be surprised if they leave the
bottle on the table for your convenience, and enjoy
the special "Hartza Habano" when you leave. A
simple touch of class following an excellent
dinner.
Open for lunch and dinner during the Fiesta.
Reservations required. Closed Sunday nights,
Mondays, all of August and from 23 December to 3
January.
Reservations
required, especially during Sanfermin.

El
Recreo, Iturrama 20, Pamplona -
Iruña
Taberna Bar, Classic Navarran Cuisine
Moderate -
Executive Chef: Francisco Javier Ibarrola
We were amazed by the quality of the food and its
presentation. We first dropped in to sample the
tapas, but decided to stay for lunch once we tasted
some of the best tapas in Pamplona, which is saying
a lot. The chef / owner knows his talents and
displays them with his presentations and
selections. The menu changes with the season, but
try their outstanding ensalada mixta, a simple dish
fit for a king. Call ahead for a table and
Señor Ibarrola will create a meal just for
you - whatever is fresh in the market that day.
Open for lunch and dinner during the Fiesta.
Reservations required in the evening.
