Why we recommend it

Disfrutar was founded by three chefs who met in the kitchen at elBulli, and that heritage shows in the inventiveness of the cooking. The restaurant holds three Michelin stars and was named number one in The World's 50 Best Restaurants list in 2024, so it is firmly a special-occasion destination.

Dinner is a tasting menu built from many small, surprising courses, where technique is used to create textures and illusions rather than for show alone, and Mediterranean flavours stay at the centre. Reservations are taken online and released well in advance; demand is intense, so plan months ahead and be flexible on dates. Allow several hours for the meal.
