Eneko Atxa’s stamp is always synonymous with success and good quality. In this restaurant, his innovative gastronomy of flavours from the Basque Country combines with Andalusian tradition to create an authentic proposal. The flavour of homemade dishes and grandmother’s stews are present in all his dishes, and the produce he uses is truly exceptional. In their tasting menus you can try delicacies such as foie and citronella curd, homemade egg yolk on wheat stew, or smoked prey with mashed potatoes and truffle.

Barra Baja
A restaurant that maintains the Bocussian denomination of ‘market cuisine’, that is to say, the daily purchase of produce that Rafa Liñán prepares directly in front of the diner in his low bar for eight people, mixing the basic cuisine with the most modern. In addition, tables for up to 20 people. Original menu prepared by product according to the market stalls. An appetising, welcoming and recommendable place that has earned its place as a reference point.
