Updated February 2022<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Orio Gastronom\u00eda Vasca by Grupo Sargardi is a stone’s throw from the Cathedral. There are also Orio restaurants in Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia, but this one is aimed at a more day to day market, incorporating a Basque style pintxo bar as well as a restaurant featuring Basque cuisine.<\/p>\n

The front of the premises is a spacious pintxo bar opening onto Calle Santo Tomas, with a terrace facing the Archivos de Indias, and the bar itself on one side, with a very appetising array of Basque style pinxos so typical in Bilbao and San Sebasti\u00e1n, but something of a novelty in Sevilla. Beyond the bar are two dining rooms leading out to a second terrace on Calle Miguel Ma\u00f1ara, with space for around thirty diners. Decoration is minimalist, but with lots of wood, and a big mural of a fisherman (Orio is a well-known fishing village).<\/p>\n

My first visit here was for a seasonal Tasting Menu event, and I was invited by Sagardi (see photos below with TM). There are two tasting menus available in the restaurant, as well as a la carte options. Since then I have been back a few times on my own to check out the pintxo bar. Here you can either choose from a short menu or, more traditionally, from the pre-made pintxos at the bar. Waiters will also pass by offering just-made hot tapas on trays. Favourites from the bar menu are the grilled txistorra sausages, croquetas and a simple but ridiculously delicious Hernani lettuce and onion salad. Definitely worth a visit, either for a snack at the bar or a meal in the restaurant.<\/p>\n
