About
Monastrell is a Michelin‑starred culinary destination located at the heart of Alicante’s historic port district. Nestled in a beautifully restored 19th‑century building, the restaurant combines modern creativity with traditional Mediterranean flavors, all curated by Chef María José San Román. The menu showcases locally sourced produce from the nearby Terramón farm and fresh sea‑food, blended with contemporary techniques that transform everyday ingredients into unforgettable dishes. Whether you’re dining for a romantic evening, celebrating a wedding, or hosting a corporate event, Monastrell offers private, customizable spaces that reflect the same level of artistry and hospitality found on the floor‑to‑ceiling windows overlooking the Mediterranean. The ambience of Monastrell is both intimate and expansive, with four distinct spaces across three floors—each designed to accommodate varying group sizes. From the airy “El Cielo de Alicante” terrace to the private “La Cámara Real” suite, guests enjoy unobstructed views of the sea and the city’s historic skyline. A dedicated wine cellar showcases a curated selection of regional and international wines, while the expertly crafted cocktail menu complements the dining experience. Monastrell’s reputation for culinary excellence extends beyond the plate. It is a venue for curated events, offering bespoke menus, personalized décor, and a team of professionals who ensure every detail—from greeting to farewell—exudes elegance. The restaurant’s ethos of sustainability, showcased through its farm‑to‑table approach, guarantees that each dish is as responsible as it is remarkable.
