"Discover the secrets hidden in the Casa-Palacio Mazarrasa (1756), a mecca for foodies that certainly makes an impression and continues to evolve! The culinary experience begins with welcome drinks and appetisers in the glass-paned pavilion or on the terrace, and culminates in elegant dining spaces with a rustic yet modern feel. Always sporting his trademark cap, chef Jesús Sánchez runs the restaurant with the invaluable support of wife Marián Martínez, who is in charge of the front of house. He remains consistently loyal to local ingredients, seasonality and to a firm commitment to sustainability via his surprise Desde La Raíz menu, a heartfelt tribute to his natural surroundings, the sea, his Cantabrian identity and its history, and all the painstaking research that has gone into every bite. As an example, the sourdough bread baked on the premises always receives fulsome praise. We highly recommend taking a stroll through the small vegetable garden in the grounds and, if the idea appeals to you, enjoying tapas from the menu in the kitchen itself." - Michelin Inspector
