Ébano occupies an aristocratic property in a residential district, and is surrounded by chalets and a pleasant tree-shaded terrace. In its bright, contemporary-style dining rooms, the focus is on modern cooking with strong traditional roots, seasonal ingredients and an obsession with defined flavours. The à la carte, including a selection of rice dishes (we enjoyed the “arroz del corral” with organic chicken, butifarra del perol sausage and butifarra blood sausage) is accompanied by daily specials, with a focus on fresh fish, and a tasting menu, from which you can also order individual dishes.
