El Moli dels Avis

About

Nestled in the picturesque town of L'Ametlla de Mar, El Molí dels Avis occupies a restored 19th‑century oil mill, turning a historic landmark into a culinary gem. The restaurant blends the rustic charm of its original machinery with a refined dining ambience, creating a memorable setting for both locals and tourists. Chef Josep Margalef curates a menu that marries traditional Catalan cuisine with a subtle Japanese influence, centering on the restaurant’s signature specialty: a tasting menu of premium red tuna sourced from the Balfegó & Balfegó S.L. Co‑operative. Each course—ranging from savoury sashimi and “tartar de ventresca” to hearty “ventresca a la brasa”—is prepared with meticulous attention to flavor profiles and presentation. Reservations are strongly recommended, particularly for the tasting menu, and can be made directly on the official website. The restaurant offers a convenient online booking system that requires bank‑card payment and includes a 12‑hour cancellation policy. With a focus on quality, service, and an elegant yet welcoming environment, El Molí dels Avis is a must‑visit destination for those seeking an exceptional dining experience in the Costa Brava.
