Almuñécar, Spain
El Chaleco
El Chaleco holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand (2025) and has served French-inspired cuisine in Almuñécar for decades, an unusual proposition on this stretch of the Costa Tropical. Now in its second generation, the kitchen runs two structured menus, a three-course option and a five-course tasting format, alongside rotating themed nights that range from lobster to Belgian classics. The dining room splits across two spaces, keeping the atmosphere measured and the focus on the food.
