How this list is chosen: Restaurants with a Wine Spectator Restaurant Award or a deep wine list, listed alphabetically. Updated October 8, 2026.
Askua
Deep wine list
Askua is València's most-recognised asador, earning a place on Opinionated About Dining's Casual Europe list every year since 2023 and a Star Wine List White Star in 2025. Operating out of El Pla del Real, it brings the Basque tradition of live-fire cookery to a city whose reputation rests on rice and seafood. Chef David Vázquez leads the kitchen with a sourcing-first approach to meat and produce.
Bar Tonyina
Deep wine list
Bar Tonyina occupies a streetside address in València's business district El Pla del Real, operating as a sibling concept to the well-regarded Anyora in the coastal Cabanyal neighbourhood. Where Anyora built its reputation by the water, Bar Tonyina brings a similarly considered approach to a more central, professional quarter of the city, a bar worth tracking down for those who take their back bar seriously.
Ca' Pepico
Deep wine list
Ca' Pepico sits in the small village of Meliana, about ten minutes by cab from central Valencia, and has built a loyal following among locals who treat the trip as part of the ritual. The address alone signals its character: this is a place that earns its reputation through the food, not the location. A favourite among those who know Valencia's dining scene beyond the city centre.
Casa Montaña
Deep wine list
Operating since 1836 from a tiled corner house in Poblats Marítims, Casa Montaña is one of the oldest taverns in València and among the more serious wine addresses in the city. The format is traditional tapas bar, the wine list runs deep into Spanish and European producers, and the kitchen works from local product with minimal interference. Ranked #460 in Opinionated About Dining's Casual Europe list for 2025.
El Poblet
2 Michelin stars · Deep wine list
Holding two Michelin stars and ranked 81st in Europe by Opinionated About Dining (2025), El Poblet represents the serious end of València's modern Spanish scene. Chef Luis Valls works within the Quique Dacosta group framework, applying creative technique to Valencian ingredients, above all the produce of the Albufera wetlands, across several tasting formats, including a vegetarian menu available without prior notice.
Entrevins
Deep wine list
Entrevins occupies the first floor of a building on Calle de la Pau, in the heart of Valencia's old city, and has earned a White Star recognition from Star Wine List, a signal that wine sits at the centre of the operation, not as an afterthought. The restaurant belongs to a small cohort of Valencia addresses where the bottle list shapes the meal rather than the other way around.
Habitual
Deep wine list
Set on the lower floor of València's Modernist Mercado de Colón, Habitual is the accessible arm of chef Ricard Camarena's restaurant group, holding a Michelin Plate (2025) for its broad Mediterranean à la carte. The menu revisits archival dishes from Camarena's career alongside market-led vegetable preparations, all at a price point well below the flagship, making it one of the more useful entry points into serious Spanish cooking in the city.
Ricard Camarena
2 Michelin stars · Deep wine list
Two Michelin stars, a green Michelin star, and a top-10 ranking among the world's vegetable-forward restaurants place Ricard Camarena at the summit tier of Spanish fine dining. Set inside the refurbished Bombas Gens arts complex in La Saïdia, the restaurant runs set menus built entirely around seasonal produce and Valencia's agricultural traditions. Dinner service runs Tuesday to Saturday; Friday and Saturday also offer lunch.
Riff
1 Michelin star · Deep wine list
A Michelin-starred address in València's L'Eixample district where German-born chef Bernd Knöller channels the Mediterranean through a creative lens shaped by decades of working the local fish market and rice paddies. The open kitchen counter lets you watch dishes take form in real time. Ranked 256th in the 2025 Opinionated About Dining Europe list, Riff sits at the serious end of the city's creative dining tier.
Teca
Deep wine list
A neighbourhood restaurant in Valencia's Extramurs district that has operated largely off the radar of mainstream dining lists, Teca opens seven days a week until midnight, making it one of the more accessible options in a city where kitchen hours can be restrictive. Its quiet side-street address on Carrer d'Honorat Juan positions it as a local fixture rather than a destination play.
Vinorte Wine Bar
Deep wine list
A wine bar in València's Extramurs district rooted in a founders' story that begins with a 1994 Riesling. Vinorte draws on international hospitality experience and deep local roots to frame Spain's wine regions within a relaxed, neighbourhood-scale format. The food programme is built to complement the glass, not compete with it.
