About Pintxo

Most of the Old Town is seen from the street; Pintxo looks down on it, from a second-floor terrace over Yaowarat Road and the clay-tile roofs. French chef Sébastien Segurola, of Cava Bien Marché on Dibuk Road, cooks Basque tapas to share, much of it made in-house — the smoky pan-charred octopus is the one to order. The five-course sets are the value: 690 baht at lunch, 870 at dinner. Opened in 2026.
