Amazing Michelin star omakase experience in Marbella.

Creative, tasty dishes that will remain present in my memory — but standouts are the seared wagyu + the otoro and unagi temakis.

Highly recommended if you want to treat yourself to a special meal.

Interesting place an experience, you don't get to choose from a menu but rather what the chef has chosen. I would certainly recommend it, it is expensive but well worth it. The food, all vegetarian, a lot of fish well presented and cooked/prepared in front of you. Three hours well spent.
