• Casa Pepa★ Michelin The writer and philosopher Miguel de Unamuno once said that you need to adapt in order to move forward (hence the expression “adapt or perish”); history proves that this is often the case. This former farmhouse, an iconic address in the Marina Alta area when it was managed by chef Pepa Romans, has had a new lease of life under the umbrella of the BonAmb group. It now has a promising future ahead of it with Emmanuelle Baron in the kitchen and the stewardship of award-winning chef Alberto Ferruz, from the two-Michelin-star BonAmb. Following a makeover, it now features an attractive terrace (with9.7km
• Quique Dacosta★★★ Michelin For a more conceptual approach to gastronomy, look no further than chef Quique Dacosta, who transcends the boundaries of cuisine to lead us through an artistic experience that, as he himself describes, is a form of communication with his guests in keeping with his desire for “culinary beauty”. His innovative cuisine, which changes almost completely every year, constantly pushes the limits of the tasting experience. Through the Octavo (Eighth) tasting menu (with a name that unashamedly pushes back against the seven established fine arts: namely, painting, sculpture, architecture, music, dance, 17.5km
• Orobianco★ Michelin At Orobianco, spectacular views of Calp and its impressive Peñón de Ifach rock are complemented by Italian-inspired cuisine full of culinary nuances under the tutelage of award-winning chef Paolo Casagrande that will undoubtedly leaving a lasting impression! Elegance is an obvious thread here and is clearly in evidence in dishes available on two set menus (Short and Long). The restaurant’s culinary essence is a fusion of Italian cooking and local ingredients that showcase Spain and the Mediterranean through dishes such as cuttlefish tagliatelle, watercress risotto with red prawns, and spaghett18.0km
• Casa Bernardi★ Michelin A nice place in the Marina Alta? Make a note of this restaurant, as it is certainly an establishment where you are made to feel special; in fact, it is run by a very talented chef from Rimini (Ferdinando Bernardi) and defines itself as ‘that place where italianità (true Italian hospitality) meets the environment’. The establishment, in an elevated residential area and next to the road, is committed to a modern-day Italian cuisine that meticulously prepares pasta ‘al dente’ and tasty Mediterranean dishes (we really liked their cuttlefish Lasagna and their Spaghetti Carbonara on a base of mantis18.4km
• El Xato★ Michelin A 5th-generation family business with more than a century of history within its walls, since what in 1915 was a modest winery became a tapas bar and then the most prestigious restaurant in the Marina Baixa, that place where they say that ‘customers enter and friends leave.’Chef Cristina Figueira, well supported by her daughter Esperança (in the kitchen) and her husband Francisco Cano (in the dining room and wine cellar), began her training behind the stoves of El Xato under the guidance of her mother-in-law, Esperanza Fuster, and has shown a tireless spirit to become one of the leading cooks i18.8km
• Peix & Brases★ Michelin Many are of the opinion that without tradition there is no modernity and Peix & Brases is no exception. Working from this basic premise, it builds its philosophy around both, as well as a focus on top-notch local ingredients.Located almost in front of the port, with the sound of seagulls as a backdrop, Peix & Brases has two distinct ambiences: the gastro-bar on the ground floor serving more informal fusion-style dishes that it calls Mediterrasian, and its gastronomic dining room on the first floor, with access to an attractive rooftop terrace. Here, you find a small à la carte, which stands ou19.0km
• Ausiàs If you happen to find yourself in Pedreguer’s old town, this restaurant close to the market will definitely attract your attention thanks to its façade and its meticulous and contemporary interior design. Ausiàs Signes and Felicia Guerra, who met at Le Cordon Bleu Madrid, through their surprise menus (Valentina and Ausiàs March, both with the option of a wine pairing and adding a recommendation) offer a well-modernised Mediterranean-based cuisine, always built around local and regional products. Here the desserts usually turn heads, and one in particular really showcases their creativity, call11.4km
• El Carreter Occupying an attractive old farmhouse by a crossroads, this restaurant has a name that recalls the cartwright trade of days gone by. It features a pleasant terrace for an aperitif or coffee, several attractively laid-out dining rooms (one with a fireplace), and a contemporary approach that places Mediterranean produce in the spotlight, offered to diners through various tasting menus. Among them, the Camí de Sabors (we especially liked the ‘Essence of Red Prawn’ dish), where Federico Guajardo reproduces the most iconic dishes of his career and some that reflect his Argentinian roots. They have 15.3km
• Toy Located in one of the streets surrounding the walled access to the city's castle, this restaurant is easy to find. Behind its curious name, a small tribute to the building’s past (it was previously a toy factory), hides much more than a nod to the past, as chef Massimo Arienti seeks to surprise diners with a proposal that, never better said, plays with flavours, appearance, and textures, making the Italian cuisine that lives in his blood merge with the best local produce of the Marina Alta. There are three elaborate tasting menus (Inizio, Toy maker and Brianza), with dishes as appetising as th18.9km
