RESTAURANT CAÑABOTA One Michelin Star Recently awarded one Michelin Star in the 2022 Michelin Guide, it is only Sevilla's second. If you are looking for fish, this is the place to go to in Sevilla. This is a restaurant specialising in fish and seafood, offering both the informal ambience of a tapas bar and the bright appeal of an open-view sushi bar. The superb display cabinet of fish and its charcoal grill are the star attractions. We returned to the restaurant in October

APONIENTE Three Michelin Stars A return visit to the Angel León restaurant (famous for its cuisine of the sea and only from the sea). After moving from its old location in the Centre of El Puerto de Santa Maria, the new, far more glamorous restaurant is just outside town, in what was once an old flour mill, initially built in 1815. A small river/stream flows under the current building, and the energy it generated for the mill was used to grind the wheat into flour. Situate

ACÁNTHUM One Michelin Star PERMANELY CLOSED 2024 After two years at San Sebastian's Arzak, Xanty Elias came home, determined to shake up Huelva's dining scene. His two tasting menus (from €75 with wine) only change twice a year.

APONIENTE Two Michelin Stars   Chef de Mar Ángel León Gonzales now has his third Michelin star in his ultra-modern restaurant, which he has recently moved into. It is a converted 18th-century flour mill overlooking the estuary and, most appropriately, looking out to sea, on the banks of the Guadalete River. This is a review from 2015, the restaurant has moved to new premises and now has three Michelin Stars. The old restaurant is now an upmarket tapas bar/restaurant and is
