The 21 Michelin Star restaurants in Andalucia

Andalucia is a region of Spain known for its food, with a wide variety of dishes full of flavour and tradition. But, in addition, our region has several Michelin-starred restaurants, which offer us a varied sample of good Andalucian food. Each one with its own philosophy. They research old and new products, recreate traditional recipes, invent new flavours and textures. The aim of the best restaurants in Andalucia is to give diners who sit at their tables a multi-sensory experience. Satisfy the appetite with good taste, delicacy and flavours that enter through all our senses.

Here is the list of the 21 Michelin-starred restaurants in Andalucia:

If you come here, you can try the Iberian pork and acorn salad marinated with cherries, walnuts and raisins, or carpaccio of red tuna belly with roasted vegetable gazpacho and Xerez vinegar ice cream.

Restaurant Choco, Córdoba

Michelin star restaurants in Andalucia - Restaurant Choco with chef Kisko García, Córdoba

Kisko Garcia’s technique is his restaurant Choco is based on highly-developed skill. The façade of the building is made of wood which gives it an atmosphere of warmth, and lets you imagine quite vividly the signature cuisine inside. The Cordoba spirit is reflected in dishes like local mazamorra with Huelva white shrimp and flying fish roe. Mazamorra is another Andalucian cold soup, a tradition in Córdoba, which differs from the local salmorejo as it has no tomato; it is made with bread, garlic, vinegar, oil and salt. The Iberian oyster with ham broth and Moroccan lemon is another dish that you can enjoy if you like seafood. This locale has its own workshop and they even make the bread consumed in the restaurant. A wise culinary choice if you decide to travel to the south of Spain.
