Quaint tapas bar with a cool vibe. If Rambla beyond Salcedo park is upscale with a clean tropical feel, this place will feel a little scuffed but metropolitan cool. Think of a bar along Colon near the beach in Barcelona instead of fancy dining along Passeig de Gracia.The food is reheated, but flavorful and fairly priced. The kitchen is slow but they do their best. It was a busy night. They ran out of paella mixto which is such a thing in Manila. The waitstaff were okay.The wine selection could be more expansive (paltry compared to Terry at the next building). Cocktails and hard drinkers will have more choice. The sangria was mediocre. The 2017 Malbec was just okay. We had a bottle of Protos Reserva when we last visited (which Terry also stocks). Go for that.Check for house specials which are off the regular menu. We had chorizo + gambas and beef cheeks. They were wonderful surprises. The chorizo + gambas had great balanced flavor and texture but was reheated. The cheeks dish was tender and flavorful and, while reheated, was otherwise well executed. The bread was too rustic, almost stale, but the sauce was too good! I always liked their lengua, even if reheated.To finish, try the Crema Catalana. They took forever to make ours, but when it came, it was perfectly torched, fluffy inside, and with just the perfect hint of zest. It had a clean disk of cream on top for consuelo.Budget Php 500 to Php 800 per head before drinks.
This restaurant is one of my Spanish Professors pick as one of the simplest yet descent Spanish restaurant in Manila. Start with Berenjenas con Miel (Eggplant Chips topped with drizzled Honey), Jamon.. Paella with their best Aioli, excellent Beef Salpicao. Others we tried from their special menu like Short Ribs and Beef Cheeks
Good drink and nice selection of pintxos...service was also very good, they couldnt be nicer or more efficient, but then again, we were pretty much the only ones there that night (only another table of 2 - wed, 8pm). Will definitely be back if ever in the area.
Veel te duur voor wat je krijgt. Het is oprecht wel lekker maar het staat totaal niet in verhouding. Te veel geld voor te weinig eten.
Great tapas. Good staff. Great location.
Very consistent. Like their own beer.
This was once a great place offering authentic Spanish food. The service also used to be very good. Things have now changed massively. Please do not waste your hard earned cash on this pathetic excuse for a Spanish restaurant. I waited 40 minutes for bread with tomato and Serrano ham on. When it arrived it was toasted but cold. The shrimps with chorizo tasted disgusting and over done. I refused to pay and we left. In short, my recommendation is to walk over the road to Terry’s and eat there! We will never return to Bar Pintxos, I’m so disappointed
Great! Loved their fried eggplant and salpicao. Their pintxos platter was too pricey though.
The Food was not tasty. The Croquetas and the Patatas Bravas were very very oily.
A bit tight, tapas were ok, but the dessert was just so-so. Bread is good.
Tasty pintxos. great food
Service need to be consistent, our server provided us with the wrong information regarding their Zomato Gold tie up. Some of their food was really good like the croquettes.
Small, intimate Tapas Bar - the Calamari is to die for
Good pintxos. Fine wine selection
Great mushroom paella as always. Amazing gin concoctions
Great zomato deal
10種類以上あるピンチョスが売りのバスク系バル。タパスも絶品。マニラでスペインバルならここ!
Good gin and tonic.
Pintxos are good and the sangria is generous but pricey for the quantity of food
Nice pintxos bar in salcedo makati. Reasonably priced
Love the tomato bread and eggplant chips!
The Jamon-Allioli alone is worth revisiting this place repeatedly.
Always hits the spot just when you need it!
