The 8 main attractions of the Tamarises Izarra restaurant

History: Located in Getxo, one of the towns with the highest purchasing power in Bizkaia, frequented in the past by the high bourgeoisie of Bizkaia, the restaurant and hotel Tamarises was once a gastronomic reference throughout the Basque Country.

During more than 100 years of history, the Lazcano family, managed the Tamarises complex with great success until 2012, year in which this complex passed to other hands and was divided into 3 distinct environments. Thus, we currently find the Petit Palace Tamarises Hotel, the Tamarises terrace-bar and the Tamarises Izarra Restaurant. The new generations, have brought that change often necessary to this emblematic establishment getxotarra.
