If you are wondering where to eat in San Sebastián (Donostia), my Breakfast Always Wins map has 42 places, spread across Centro, Ipar-Ekialdea and Oeste. Most are Basque restaurants, though there are also pintxos spots and a couple of Italian and Mexican options.
Among them are, for example, Narru Bar Restaurante, Alboka Restaurante, Arzak and Astelena 1997, but I'm not ranking them: they are just a sample of the map. I pick everything on it myself, nothing is sponsored, so if a place is there, it's because I liked it.
Picked one by one by Rupo, Google Local Guide level 8. No sponsorships.
