Boasting a prime location on the 4th floor of the Palacio de la Aduana, an 18th-century neoclassical building that has been completely renovated and now also serves as the headquarters of the Museum of Malaga, this restaurant is dedicated to an interesting contemporary cuisine that combines creativity with some South American touches or culinary traits that evoke notes of Peru, Mexico, Argentina. etc. This is due to the fact that chef Emi Schobert, who says he draws his inspiration ‘from the sea, the mountains and local produce’, is a native of Buenos Aires and has twice represented his countr

Kaleja

Contemporary · ★ Michelin

€€€

The name of this restaurant is particularly apt (Kaleja is the Sephardic word for “alley”) given its location in Málaga’s Jewish quarter, just a few steps from the city’s Picasso Museum. The first thing that will strike you as you walk through the door is the subtle aroma of smoke, a key feature that sets this restaurant apart. Here, chef Dani Carnero has gone for a modern take on dishes of old, working with the heat of his wood-fired grill to create what he calls “candle cooking” – a style of cuisine that revives tastes and flavours from his childhood, in many cases connected to traditional A

Contemporary, Traditional Cuisine · ★ Michelin

This attractive restaurant, just a few steps from the legendary Atarazanas market, is one of those restaurants you’ll love visiting thanks to its constant desire to improve. The couple in charge of the kitchen (Cristina Cánovas and Diego Aguilar), both of whom have trained in leading restaurants, have used the initials of their first names to come up with the concept of “Dual Cuisine” (this sense of duality can also be seen in Palodú’s dining rooms – one, with an open kitchen, decorated in black tones, the other dominated by the colour white). Their cooking is focused on two tasting menus call

€€€€

This restaurant, overlooking the luxury yachts in the Muelle Uno dock, stands out for its contemporary dining space that is both elegant and informal. Here, cutting-edge trends and industrial design combine with exquisite vertical gardens and a chillout zone in a space that still remains completely in tune with the style and bright feel of the Mediterranean. Chef José Carlos García, a native of this delightful city, does not offer an à la carte option, instead focusing exclusively on two extensive tasting menus (one features three more courses than the other) that are constantly evolving.

It is located in the central neighbourhood known as Perchel Sur, near the Málaga-María Zambrano train station, and reflects the dream of a young pair of chefs (Cristian Fernández and Pablo Zamudio) who have brought the final degree project they jointly presented at the Escuela de Hostelería de Morón de la Frontera to fruition. They offer a small menu with tapas and dishes designed for sharing, with a modern style and a strong traditional base. What to order? Don't miss the Canelón de gallina vieja or the curious Spanish tortilla, made in the Japanese omurice style and served with wasabi mayonn

Tragatá Málaga

Contemporary

€€

Located in the heart of Malaga, a stone’s throw from the popular Plaza de la Marina, this restaurant has become a must-visit in the city as it reflects the more casual cuisine of famous chef Benito Gómez, a gastronomic gem in Ronda. Here, you can savour dishes such as his award-winning Russian salad, the popular squid sandwich with aioli and salsa brava, and the delicious grilled bone marrow with beef tartare. It offers a change from the more creative proposals because it goes all in on traditional cuisine.

Nestled in a central square, run by a couple who are committed to what they call 'meridian cuisine', representing the southern Mediterranean culture, with dishes of great delicacy and flavour with no shortage of technical details. The menu, with a tasty and comprehensive selection of rice dishes (Shell-free rice with monkfish and white prawns, Alicante-style rice cooked in fish stock, served with wild-caught fish, Rice with Angus beef cheek and chickpeas...) which can be enjoyed individually, is rounded out with two tasting menus (Meridiano Cero and Virazón).

Located in the heart of the city centre, just a few steps from the Atarazanas Central Market. This bistro with a contemporary atmosphere, with the kitchen visible behind the bar, is run by Fran Rascado, a young chef who, with the name of the restaurant, seeks to pay a small tribute to his grandfather and the trade he had separating discarded fish. He offers a modern and varied cuisine, based on produce from the local market and market garden, which incorporates both French and Asian touches. A standout dish? The well-balanced cured scallop and lemon cascarúo de Benamocarra, with beurre blanc s
