El Basque is a charming restaurant that is often described as a "hole in the wall," offering both inside and outside seating in a beautifully decorated setting filled with local art. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for any occasion. The menu features a variety of delicious dishes served Tapas style, including truffled mashed potatoes with an egg on top, blood sausage, escargot, white anchovy, chorizo and Brie, as well as main courses like cassoulet and short rib. The Basque Cheesecake is a standout dessert, often praised as one of the best. The wine selection is excellent and thoughtfully curated, with knowledgeable staff providing great recommendations. The service is friendly, attentive, and prompt, enhancing the overall dining experience. Reservations are highly suggested due to the restaurant's small size. El Basque is highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy unique Basque-style food in a delightful setting.
