Best Tasting Menus in Gijón

Abarike

A Michelin Plate-recognised seafood address on Calle Melquiades Álvarez, Abarike centres the Cantabrian catch with rare transparency: a logbook-style à la carte traces ingredient traceability, while three omakase-format tasting menus move through the tidal rhythms of the coast. Oysters, razor clams, cured sea bass, and gilda-style tapas built on blue lobster and smoked eel make the case for Gijón as one of northern Spain's most compelling seafood tables.

Auga

1 Michelin star

A Michelin-starred address on Gijón's marina breakwater, Auga holds a one-star rating (2024) and a €€€ price point that positions it at the upper end of the city's dining scene. Chef Gonzalo Pañeda works from a market-driven menu rooted in Asturian tradition, with a terrace directly facing the sea and a dining room that balances contemporary design with regional character.

El Recetario

On the edge of Gijón's historic Cimadevilla district, El Recetario holds a 2024 Michelin Bib Gourmand for cooking that repositions Asturian tradition through technical precision and market-driven ingredients. The format splits between a ground-floor bar for sharing plates and a contemporary basement dining room. At the €€ price point, it represents the more accessible end of serious contemporary cooking in the city.

Farragua

A Michelin Bib Gourmand holder steps from Gijón's Plaza Mayor, Farragua runs structured tasting menus that cross Asturian produce with Extremaduran instinct. Chef Ricardo Fernández Señorán's escabeches and four-hand 'Arrieros' format make this one of the city's more considered mid-range options for modern Spanish cooking at €€ pricing.

Fūmu

At a sushi bar eight seats wide, just off Gijón's marina, Fūmu runs a tight menu built around house-aged Bay of Biscay fish and an omakase format designed for sharing. The nigiris draw on Japanese technique applied to Cantabrian and Mediterranean ingredients, making this one of the few places in Asturias where Japanese precision and northern Spanish product converge at the counter.

Gloria

Gloria occupies a relaxed corner of central Gijón, running the informal side of the Manzano siblings' award-winning operation from a Plaza Florencio Rodríguez address. At €€ pricing, the menu runs from house-famous ham croquettes to sharing plates with fusion touches, all holding a Michelin Plate in 2024 and 2025.

Marcos

1 Michelin star · Deep wine list

A Michelin-starred counter restaurant on Calle Cabrales where sommelier Marcos Granda and chef Marcos Mistry place front-of-house service on an equal footing with the kitchen. Twelve seats face a live kitchen, and two tasting menus built around Asturian ingredients give guests a choice of depth. At €€€€, this is Gijón's most architecturally considered dining format.

Restaurante La Tabla

Deep wine list

Set eight kilometres outside Gijón along the AS-377, Restaurante La Tabla earned a White Star recognition from Star Wine List in early 2026, signalling a wine program that holds up against the city's more visible dining addresses. The location, off the main urban circuit on the road toward Pola de Siero, suits a kitchen drawing on Asturian countryside and coastal produce rather than competing on pedestrian footfall.
