Ricard Camarena Restaurant

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. The attention to detail is as expected from a 2-Star-Michelin cuisine. It was an excellent mix between meats/fish and vegetables. For me the highlight however (apart from the food) was the non-alcoholic/non-wine accompaniment. This mix of drinks of their own produce was an excellent pairing to their food and rounded up this immersive local culinary experience. Kudos to the chef, kitchen and service staff! We had a great experience and are looking forward to our next visit!

This restaurant is no secret. But take my word for it - I’ve eaten at over few hundred different 1-3 star restaurants all over the world and this was my top 3-5 experience. There’s 2/3 stars and then there’s Ricard Camarena. Easily one of the best restaurants in the world and the best in Valencia if you’re looking to be impressed. This is what 3 Michelin experience should be! Forget just technique, there’s insane flavour in every part of the menu. The food philosophy is extremely clean and with great attention to QUALITY of ingredients especially the veg. Everyone throws “farm to table” and “locally sourced” buzzwords around but few actually deliver that via flavour and love in preparation to the plate. Ricard Camarena does. Their cured tuna station is one of the most impressive taste experiences I’ve ever had in my life. MUST visit! Also we found it more than than reasonably priced for the standard of food. The desserts strike a balance between not to sweet and perfection. Petit fours were not as sensational but lovely none the less to finish the meal. The dining room is stunning, service is knowledgeable and attentive. My only advice to the restaurant would be to never forget the love that inspired Ricard Camarena and maintain that throughout the evolution of the menu in the future. Must visit for any seasoned foodie!

Warning 😊 You either will like this place or you won’t! Vegetarian oriented cuisine but will add seafood creations into it. Gets a 5 star for presentation! If you like beef this place most likely will not get you excited. I gave all 5 for creativeness and presentation. As for taste buds satisfaction it gets a much less stars.

Incredible meal by a chef with an incredible imagination, every course was a wonderful explosion of tastes, even the dessert challenged me in ways I did not expect. Camarena is famous for his use of tomato, and this course did not disappoint.
