ASTURIAS - ARRIONDAS - CASA MARCIAL

Two Michelin Stars

CASA MARCAL

The drive to the restaurant, which is situated in the heart of the mountains is accessed via a narrow road in the beautiful Asturian countryside and the views are amazing.

Beware of the narrow winding roads where you'll have to be careful of grazing cows and sheep.

The restaurant itself has a modest façade which provides a contrast to its elegant stone interior and exposed wooden beams and a few contemporary decorative details.

There is an attractive bar area.

Two Michelin starred chef Nacho Manzano, prepares creative regional cuisine using only the finest top quality ingredients. The chefs imagination and inventions, brilliant though they are, he never loses the sight of his roots. Indeed, with its idyllic rural location, his roots are everywhere to be seen.
