Basque Cuisine is considered one of the most internationally prestigious. Those who visit us affirm that, whether in a picnic area, restaurant, grill or cider house, the food in the Basque Country is very good.
Traditional Basque cuisine based on the quality of its products is simple to prepare, has deep popular roots and in which seafood is the protagonist, without forgetting lean and tasty meats, products linked to the land such as beans or dairy derivatives such as cheese and curd.
Walking through the streets of Orio you immediately see the value that gastronomy has in this town. Here and there, in secluded corners, are the grills of more than fifteen restaurants where fish and meat are grilled with charcoal.
Grilled sea bream is the king dish at Orio.
The elvers caught in the estuary itself, the beef, the anchovies... washed down with txakolí and local cider or Rioja wine, complete a top quality offering.
