Basque Flavors:
An Elko Tradition

Elko’s iconic Basque cuisine began in the boardinghouses that sheepherders once called home during long winters. Try an authentic Basque meal served family-style in generous courses or sample the famous Picon Punch to taste the town’s heritage at local favorites like The Star Hotel, Toki Ona, and Ogi Deli.
