Welcome

Etxanobe is a different way of understanding the “Art of  Cooking”. Fernando Canales, owner and chef, runs this restaurant since it opened in 1999.

The restaurant is situated on the top floor of  a very special building in the centre of Bilbao. Overlooking the river and the modern buildings, both the light and the situation create an enchanting atmosphere. 

But what really makes a difference is the service. The team is lead by Maria Angeles Elizondo. She is permanently making sure that everybody who has come is well attended and feel the proximity of a team who care for their comfort and strive to achieve what the client is after which is nothing but the cuisine of Fernando Canales.

Mikel Poblacion, Head Cook, leads the team which works with great care to produce dishes designed by Fernando, using highly chosen products, a cuisine which could defined as “grateful sensations”, freshly cooked with the purpose to maximise the satisfaction of those who visit us.

Flavour, product, tradition and creativity all blended in one concept. This chef and communicator, who you have seen and heard on radio and television sharing his knowledge and expertise invites you to come to his restaurant and enjoy an atmosphere of happiness and satisfaction.
