"This restaurant, overlooking the luxury yachts in the Muelle Uno dock, stands out for its contemporary dining space that is both elegant and informal. Here, cutting-edge trends and industrial design combine with exquisite vertical gardens and a chillout zone in a space that still remains completely in tune with the style and bright feel of the Mediterranean. Chef José Carlos García, a native of this delightful city, does not offer an à la carte option, instead focusing exclusively on two extensive tasting menus (one features three more courses than the other) that are constantly evolving. Demonstrating impressive technical skill, they feature dishes that champion locally sourced ingredients (around 70%) and showcase time-honoured “malagueño” flavours." - Michelin Inspector

"Málaga’s other Michelin-starred chef, José Carlos García, grew up in Rincón de la Victoria, the fishing village to the east of El Palo, and made his name at Café de Paris, a café turned restaurant opened by his dad in La Malagueta, just behind the beach."

We have been visiting quite a few michelin restaurants and we were not disapointed. We chose the green menu and it was perfect. We also added the cheese platter. Normally I get to full before the desserts but this time the amount of dishes and food was just enough to feel full but still enjoying all the dishes. A favorite was the sunflower “thing” as one of the starters. The texture and salty taste was so delicious. The ravioli with mushrooms and the cauliflower soup was also very tasty! The service and atmosphere was also a 5 star experience. I really recommend this restaurant!

The food is quite good and interesting, but i was not impressed with the service. Everything was 'by a book', but it was really hard to spot a smile on people's faces, and I would not rank my experience as unique enough. I think customer service still has some work to do. The atmosphere and the ambience is pretty nice.

Three-course-menu at Jose Carlos Garcia / 1 Michelin star today: We have bern several times at the restaurant before and although we enjoyed the normal/ large menu, we felt always really stuffed in the end. So we were quite happy as we saw the new possibility for a small lunch. We get four different appetizers, a starter and a main (you can both choose from four different suggestions). In the end, you can have cheese or a desert. And we got four sweets each with the coffee. It was such a great expirience and absolutely worth the money.

Everything is good and well-maintained. We had lunch. Everything was fine. Fancy food for a reasonable price.

An excellent restaurant with great cuisine that is based on traditional Andalusian dishes but with a modern twist. I would especially like to mention the excellent service, the waiter answered all our questions and presented dishes and wines extremely well (we chose wine pairing). We chose the smaller menu, the dinner lasted two and a half hours. Relatively expensive.

Such a lovely evening. We did the 13 course menu with the wine pairing and the cheese plate and everything worked well together.

I really enjoyed the experience and all the food was executed perfectly. It felt almost wrong to eat such beautiful dishes.

Went there for my wife's birthday. We had already eaten in his other restaurant Balausta which was very good so had high expectations. We had a table at the front of the restaurant which overlooks the harbour but wooden screens are placed in front of the windows for privacy. It is beautiful inside and you can see the chefs cooking. The food is incredible and each dish we had seemed to be better than the last. It is expensive as we paid €5 for a small bottle of water and €16 for a mocktail as we don't drink alcohol. Overall it was worth it and would highly recommend going there. Staff were friendly and explained every dish. The food itself is like art on a plate.
