Radis

€€€
Radis is one of those places in which a young chef (Juanjo Mesa) with the restaurant business in his blood, experience working in leading restaurants behind him, and an undeniable desire to please has set up a business with a view to revolutionising the city’s dining scene. In 2023, Mesa won the title of “Best Olive Oil Chef” at the “Jaén, Paraíso Interior” contest organised as part of the San Sebastián Gastronomika festival, and in this small, centrally located eatery with a contemporary bistro feel and open kitchen he puts all his efforts into two surprise tasting menus (Bercho and Charca, w

There are some local customs and skills that you pick up at home from your family and it is undoubtedly this link which connects chef Juan Aceituno and his grandmother Juana (La Chucha), the woman who passed on her passion for food to her grandson. This downtown restaurant, halfway between the Basilica of San Ildefonso and the bullring, features a main dining room in a contemporary minimalist style. The updated traditional cuisine here, with stunning attention to detail and exquisite flavour, aims to narrate a journey through the chef’s own life experiences, exploring the landscapes of Jaén vi

Aureum by Picualia
Traditional Cuisine · Bib
€€
If you’re tempted by a dining experience that revolves around extra-virgin olive oil, then Aureum, located inside the Picualia olive oil cooperative, could be the place. In addition to educational tours, tastings and other olive oil-related activities for visitors, you’ll also find a wine bodega next door to this attractive restaurant. The two chefs at the helm, Paco Simón and Toña López de la Huerta, clearly demonstrate that olive oil is the star of the show here, with a strong nod to local tradition both on the à la carte and their two tasting menus (Fenologicum and Labora Olivae II).

Los Sentidos occupies a restored house with an imposing stone façade in the centre of town, behind which the contemporary design of its dining rooms comes as something of a surprise (the main room stands out, in particular, as it is brighter and overlooks an internal patio). Owner-chef Juan Pablo Gámez is strongly committed to contemporary cuisine that showcases the bygone flavours and history of Jaén, adapting regional recipes with his modern culinary techniques.

Cantina La Estación
Contemporary · Bib
€€
Although located slightly away from the historic centre, this authentic “cantina” full of surprises is well worth the journey! It features a simple tapas bar in the style of an old railway station, which leads to the dining room, the latter imitating the interior of an old train carriage. The couple in charge, Montserrat and Antonio José, focus on contemporary seasonal cuisine, with the intention of always enhancing what they offer with artisanal breads, a small selection of olive oils, an enticing tasting menu and at least one different stew every day (there are also off-menu suggestions).
