Balausta Restaurante
Michelin-starred chef José Carlos García may have his glass-box flagship restaurant on Muelle Uno, but diners seeking his creative cookery at a lower price should head to his showcase at the Palacio Solecio Hotel in the heart of the city. Under chef de cuisine Marcos Granados, Balausta focuses on re-interpreted traditional Andalucían dishes that rely on seasonal fish, meat, and vegetables. Start with artichoke soup accompanied by grilled langoustines, then dine on monkfish with a baby squid reduction and grilled sea anemones. Carnivores will welcome a classic filet mignon with chateaubriand sauce. The kitchen manages to realize the full gastronomic potential of essentially simple dishes—think of it as the apotheosis of taberna tapas. Check for seasonal menu; in the fall, the chef offers selections of foraged mushrooms and wild game.
