Savinya

Savinya is part of the Hotel del Mar and known for its outstanding haute cuisine. It's Viña's most refined and expensive restaurant, and the place to go if you're looking to blow your budget on a special meal. Still, when compared to restaurants of the same caliber in the U.S., the prices at Savinya could be considered quite reasonable. The menu changes seasonally, but owing to the chef's Italian heritage, the cuisine tends to be slanted toward richly elegant pasta creations, impeccably executed and blending uncommon flavors and textures that work surprisingly well together. A white truffle infusion here and a foie gras sliver there add a lavish decadence that transforms an otherwise hearty Mediterranean staple into haute cuisine. For purists, the unadulterated meat dishes provide intense flavors and a silken texture. Attentive, agreeable service comes with the price, as does an elegant-chic ambience, and gigantic picture windows that offer a gorgeous view overlooking the ocean.
