Palodú | Restaurante Centro de Málaga | Menú degustación in Málaga

"Incredible experience! We loved the service, the food was rich in flavors and each dish was a surprise. Everything perfectly balanced and beautifully made. The only thing that I would point as an improvement is the chairs. We spent more than 2h in the restaurant and the chairs are super uncomfortable. Overall, really enjoyed and recommend!"

"Amazing. Everything is spot on. Had a great time for my birthday. I can see the contrast in dishes. They don't play it safe. Some mainstream ones, some bold ones. And used local ingredients with some stories behind it. But nothing overpowering. The chefs spark all 5 taste profiles. Great sequencing and pacing. Atmosphere is amazing, 12 seats on one side and I believe 8-10 more on the other, they give plenty time for each setup. Book early to avoid disappointment. A lot of details. (Ceramic plates, cutlery choices, small stool for ladies' bags, lighting, minimal design, even toothbrushes/perfume in men's bathroom). I can tell how much thoughts go into everything. No wonder! Well worth a star!"

"My husband arranged my birthday at Palodu, and they could not have been more accommodating. They've adjusted 2 if their menus fo pregnancy friendly, as well as deserts to diabetes friendly, moreover, as we were with a child, they were super comfortable with it and were doing everything we would feel great. The food was fabulous, even the adjusted (cooked) versions were art and had so many interesting flavors combinations."

"SUPER!! Very creative, extremely satisfying, a menu that deserves a Michelin star. A solid 3 hour journey on serious food, high level of technique, great attention to details, great respect for local and high quality ingredients and fantastic wine selection. The taste of some dishes will simply blow your mind, plating is top notch. Can't wait to be back!!"

"We had dinner at Palodú tonight and we are honestly still speechless. Every course was a work of art - not only visually, but in flavour, balance, and technique. The precision in each dish was extraordinary: delicate textures, bold yet perfectly controlled flavours, and combinations that surprised us again and again. Nothing was done just to impress - everything had a clear purpose and story on the plate. One dish in particular truly stood out for me: the cured tongue. It was absolutely exceptional - unbelievably tender, perfectly balanced, and executed with such finesse that it completely redefined what this ingredient can be. Deep, elegant flavours and a melt-in-the-mouth texture made it my clear favourite of the evening. The pacing of the menu was flawless, with each course flowing naturally into the next and keeping us fully engaged from start to finish. You can truly taste the respect for ingredients, seasonality, and craftsmanship throughout the entire experience. The service deserves special mention and was a clear 10 out of 10: warm, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. I am currently pregnant, and the way the team handled this was exceptional. Every precaution was taken with absolute professionalism, without ever making it feel restrictive or uncomfortable. That level of care is rare and deeply appreciated. The atmosphere was equally perfect - calm, elegant, and intimate, allowing the food to take centre stage while still feeling relaxed and welcoming. We have been fortunate to dine at many Michelin-starred restaurants, and this experience is without a doubt in our top three - possibly even number one. Our highest recommendation to anyone who truly loves exceptional food and meaningful dining experiences. Thank you for an unforgettable evening. We will absolutely be back very soon."

"Good experience overall. Beautiful location, good food and wines. I liked it. A suggestion for improvement - is for employees to be a bit more personal. Everybody was smiling and polite, but not more. This is a lot to ask, but I feel like in Michelin - star restaurants so much depends on personality of employees. Unfortunately, I did not feel the spark. Another thing for me - is that waiters looked almost solely at my boyfriend while talking and not at me. This felt a bit conservative. I hope that in the future you guys will pay equal attention to everybody who comes to the restaurant."

"Excellent and creative interpretations of local traditional Malaga specialties. We had the Palodú tasting menu that was a great culinary experience. Although over 15 courses we were not overstuffed since the dishes are not big and not heavy. All beauty and taste experiences that were very special. The service is extremely good and friendly. The wine pairing is highly recommended."

"A really wonderful meal beautiful Palodú! Food, wines & service were all excellent. Diego & Cris’s food is a refined take on Andalusian cuisine, using ingredients sourced locally, plus additional flourishes & details, but their dishes acknowledge tradition. Beautiful crockery & cutlery too. We sat at the counter to watch the magic. Well informed and friendly service from Nacho & colleagues. Thank you for a very special dinner!"
