Achafla Baita - Ascain

I ate breakfast, dinner and lunch in the restaurant, as I had a 3 day stay in the hotel. The main purpose of the visit was to attend a wedding and despite the large numbers (over 150) both the quality of the food and the service were excellent. I do not know the name of the dish, but the day after the wedding, lunch comprised lamb legs and ribs suspended over a charcoal fire, which were exceptionally good. Apparently, it is a Basque specialty. For dinner that day, I had large prawns cooked in a garlic dressing, with a mixed salad, all of which was prepared to a very high standard.If you read my review of the hotel, you will observe that I was not at all impressed and would not stay there again, but I would travel a considerable distance to enjoy the superb food served in their restaurant.

Great food at great prices and huge servings .... friendly service as well. This is a local Restaruant a bit off the beaten path that is mostly for a local crowd, no pretensions just great food.

My husband and I fell in love with Chez Anna and Jo Anna and Jo are a charming, gracious couple and Anna is a wonderful cook.
