Description

Summary: Windowed cliffs showcase the ocean as seasonal prix-fixe meals unfold with local produce.

At Sierra Mar a glass-walled sanctuary clings to a cliff, letting the endless sea and sky be part of the dining scene. Daily prix fixe menus adapt to the season, using organic products sourced from the surrounding coast and hills, plus the restaurant’s own garden. Expect seafood and produce that reflect foraged and local origins, paired from a vast wine cellar with many scarce and classic bottles. For sunset lovers, the patio offers a breathtaking finale to dinner.
