Paella is made on the patio on Wednesdays and Fridays in limited quantities—worth calling ahead to reserve a spot. The market side stocks Spanish pantry goods including imported ingredients not easily found elsewhere in the region. Pintxos, patatas bravas, and meatballs show up repeatedly in reviews as reliable orders.

One reviewer says...

I cannot say enough about the Basque Market's many charms, from the market of authentic ingredients, to the warm, pet-friendly service, to the glorious food you can eat on-premises, inside and out. I would LIVE here if I could. They have a special "3 for $6" pintxos/tapas (small bites) special going on, as well as paella on Wed. and Fri. My husband and I were blown away by the options, especially my shrimp baguette tapa and the patatas bravas that were so crispy and soft and mildly spiced and addictive. My husband marveled at the buttery, crispy chunk of bread served with his beef meatballs swimming in pepper, tomato sauce. I love Marcona almonds but can't find them anywhere, other than specialty shops far from where we live in Twin Falls, ID. Luckily, this market has them, spiced, and MORE (we went home with a Spanish cheese and chorizo sausage, too). We'll be back, often, to try the other dishes.
