Huerto Martínez
A restaurant full of contrasts in which the simple decor is offset by a highly enticing menu. Occupying a country house just a few yards from the town’s sports hall, its traditional home cooking with plenty of modern and fusion influence comes as a pleasant surprise. Rice dishes (over 10 different options) are its speciality, with the creamy rice with rabbit and snails and the vegetable paella the pick of the bunch. Make sure you also try the superb foie gras terrine with a cinnamon galette and violet marmalade. We also recommend taking Toni’s advice when it comes to choosing your wine!
TripAdvisor review sample · 4.4/5 · 62 reviews
Located in Cheste, Huerto Martínez blends traditional and contemporary cuisine. Food quality is generally praised, with rice, meats, and desserts like tiramisu receiving high marks, though some guests noted burnt vegetables or small portions. Service is typically professional and welcoming under Toni’s management, yet isolated complaints cite poor attitude. The atmosphere is warm and familial, but occasionally noisy. While overall ratings are strong, a minority of reviewers find the value mediocre, citing sparse accompaniments for main courses.
Ideal for diners seeking authentic traditional flavors in a warm setting; reservations are recommended.
