Les meilleurs restaurants en Ascain

22/05/2026: Very good stay, hotel staff very helpful

18/05/2026: A pleasant hotel located just below La Rhune mountain. The rooms are clean and the breakfast is plentiful with a good selection. A pleasant stay. Thank you.

05/05/2026: A €37 set menu for a ribeye steak to share, accompanied by three lettuce leaves and three fries. I left still hungry. Excessive value for money.

03/05/2026: Nice and friendly place. Unfortunately, the system wasn't explained to us, so we ended up paying an extra €10 per person for a cider (just a small glass). A little more courtesy from the manager would have been appreciated. She wasn't very accommodating; for a hen party table of 12 people costing €410, we were refused a digestif. A shame.

11/11/2025: I came on September 28th and was unfortunately very disappointed not to find the former owner, Gildas, there. The food was nothing like it used to be. For a starter, the warm goat cheese should be at least a small Crotin or Rocamadour, but instead it was just a piece of goat cheese from a cheap log on three small pieces of bread. The main course, the duck confit, was just a leg straight out of a can, tasteless and of course without any sauce. Perhaps it was too complicated to prepare. And if only the fries were homemade, not just delivered by a supplier. Oh, and I almost forgot, there was a spider in the salad! Seriously, when you own such an establishment, especially one facing La Rhune mountain, it's a shame. Sir, I am contacting you again following your disingenuous response. Living 700 kilometers away, I had no way of knowing that Gildas had recently sold the business, so I had no preconceived notions. Regarding the sauce that was supposed to accompany the duck confit ("duck leg"), given the wide selection in your response, it would have been more sensible to offer it when ordering, not during the service I requested. The response I received was, "No sauce available, but we can prepare some in 10 to 15 minutes"—a joke! And of course, if I follow your reasoning, I should avoid waiting 10 to 15 minutes hoping for a pat of butter to accompany the country ham and cheese, which would have enhanced the presentation. I should have informed the cow, the farmer, and the dairy of my arrival. No, sir, I'm not grumbling in a corner. I did make my concerns known at the checkout, and the response I received was, "I cannot give you a satisfactory answer as I am not the chef." And as it seems to me that you Gildas, please don't use these photos on your website. Sir, when you practice one of the most beautiful professions in the world, you live by its motto. Perfection doesn't exist, you can always do better, there are weaknesses, days when things don't go well, simple cooking is the most complicated thing there is. Joël Rebuchon

10/11/2025: A very warm welcome despite our late arrival at 1:45 pm, good local cuisine, a very pleasant time 😏

09/05/2026: A takeaway pizza restaurant with a few tables for enjoying an aperitif while waiting for your pizza. The pizzas are excellent, made with fresh ingredients. The restaurant is located in the center of Ascain, near the market hall, which makes it a pleasant place to stop at the end of the day, especially after climbing La Rhune (up and down). Thank you, don't change a thing!

13/04/2026: This pizzeria is really lovely. The owner and the young chef are charming. It's the first time we've ever finished our pizza, not because they were small (29 cm) but because they were excellent: very thin crust, perfectly cooked, and a refined topping. And to top it all off... a very pleasant atmosphere 😍
