La Rubia: live-fire dining in the heart of Bilbao
Bilbao has a new place for the fire. La Rubia opens on Alameda Recalde with a concept built around live flames, great produce, and the simple pleasure of sharing food at the table.
The menu revolves around grill and charcoal cooking, with a carefully chosen selection of starters to share, center-of-the-table plates, and premium meats. You’ll find grilled vegetables like artichoke flower, roasted cauliflower with feta cream, and spiced carrots, alongside heartier dishes such as creamy steak croquettes, veal sweetbreads, octopus with green mojo, or baked txangurro.
Meat takes center stage, with options like Angus skirt steak, lacquered pork ribs, dry-aged beef tenderloin, Wagyu sirloin, and a range of dry-aged chops and premium selections—each served with homemade sides. The menu is rounded out with rice dishes, charcoal-grilled fish, and shareable plates that work just as well for laid-back lunches as for lively dinners.
All of it is served in a warm, thoughtfully designed space, where the décor and atmosphere enhance an honest, no-fuss experience—with fire as the common thread.
La Rubia is set to become a must for anyone craving great grilling, quality produce, and straightforward cooking right in the center of Bilbao.
