El Yantar La Cocina de Pilar

Sharing a building with the La Villa hotel, this restaurant boasts a meticulous dining room at street level as well as a cave-like dining room excavated out of the rock that is accessed via a narrow flight of steps. Its main courses are centred around traditional cooking and some rice dishes, all preceded by somewhat bolder starters with a nod to the fusion cuisine of Asia and the Americas. Note the excellent choice of Utiel-Requena wines!
