Gustu Bilbao

This place does what it says on the box. I tried this place as read it was run by a nutritionist. The meal was balanced and delicious. I went for the set menu which was 14.50 euros and unlike some other reviewers who felt the portions were too light, I could regrettably not eat all the food on my my plate. I had a miso starter followed by a delicious crunchy salad My main was rice with mushrooms, broccoli with sesame seeds and two what I might describe as croquettes as the menu was in Spanish a smokey seitan and breadcrumb coated tofu slither topped with a pumpkin puree. The dessert was a raw apple strudel which consisted of a chewy granola base topped with s spiced apple puree with grated Apple ( I will definitely be trying to recreate this dessert at home). I awarded 5 stars as this place is unpretentious and deliver exactly what they promise. My only "complaint" is that I was not offered a drink . I did however receive a carafe of tap water. .

A wonderful warming meal with miso soup, ume-shoyu salad, and a full plate balanced with millet, vegetables, zucchuni pesto, carrot puré and baked chickpeas... They also offer a good vegan burger with sweet potatoe fries, wraps(tacos) and a delicious apple strudel. Finich your meal with a warm kukicha tea.

Definitely try this place. They have a set menu around €11 which is always protein balanced. Very clean and healthy food - if a bit too much so - but many will appreciate that. Interesting fresh vegan desserts. Recommended!

El restaurante es muy lindo, bastante acogedor. La atención muy buena y amable. La comida estuvo muy rica pedimos menú del día, las cremas deliciosas sobre todo la de pepino. La ensalada pudo ser un poquito más pero estaba sencilla más sabrosa al igual que el jugo verde delicioso. El plato fuerte estaba rico, un poquito más de la porción de vegetales hubiese sido genial. Los sabores muy buenos y presentes, quizas un poquito menos de grasa seria mucho mejor.

I´ve been to this place twice, and thoroughly enjoyed it. I appreciate the fact that they seem to take more risks than the usual traditional Basque restaurant, as they dare make use of seaweed, tempeh, miso, millet... not exactly the usual fare in Bilbao. In addition, staff are polite and helpful, and the majority of the food appears to be organic.. which makes the couple extra euros you will be paying compared to other restaurants totally worth it.
The only minus I could think of is that you may not get full enough, but I pointed this out once and I got some extra food!

I went for lunch today and appreciated the light, organic but very nutritive 4-course menu. Amazing brownie!!
Will be back tomorrow.
