Sagartoki

Located in the heart of Vitoria-Gasteiz, just a short walk from Plaza de la Virgen Blanca, Sagartoki is one of the most celebrated pintxo bars in the Basque Country. Known for its creative approach to traditional Basque cuisine, the bar has become a must-visit destination for food lovers exploring Álava’s capital.

Sagartoki gained international recognition thanks to chef Senén González, whose innovative pintxos have won several prestigious gastronomic awards in Spain. Despite its fame, the venue maintains the lively and informal atmosphere typical of Basque bars, where locals and visitors gather around the counter to enjoy excellent food and wine.

The bar’s most iconic creation is its famous egg pintxo, a sophisticated bite designed to resemble a fried egg. Made with a delicate potato shell and filled with creamy egg, it is available with flavors such as truffle, bacon, or chistorra. Combining playful presentation with remarkable technique, this pintxo has become one of the culinary symbols of Vitoria-Gasteiz.

Beyond its award-winning pintxos, Sagartoki also offers a complete restaurant menu focused on modern Basque cuisine and high-quality local ingredients. Seasonal produce, grilled meats, and carefully selected Rioja Alavesa wines all play an important role in the dining experience. The kitchen successfully balances innovation with respect for traditional flavors, creating dishes that feel both contemporary and deeply rooted in Basque gastronomy.
