Chef Pablo Rebollo's Castilian cooking in Marbella's old town, listed in the MICHELIN Guide Spain 2026.
Candeal is chef Pablo Rebollo's restaurant on Plaza Blas Infante in Marbella's old town, opened in June 2023 and listed in the MICHELIN Guide Spain 2026. Rebollo comes from Valladolid, and his cooking reworks the Castilian recipe book through fire, fermentation and slow stocks: stews, escabeches, pickles and game, seen with a contemporary eye.
The restaurant takes its cue from the 18th-century cave houses of Castile, underground stores where grain and wine were kept at a steady temperature and where neighbors gathered after the harvest to share bread, wine and suckling lamb. Tables are set in the dining room and on a terrace.
Bread sits at the center. Candeal bakes its own candeal de cuadros and Penafiel olive oil torta, following the method the team learned from the master baker who once supplied it, and every table starts with the chef's appetizer, that bread and a red partridge pate. The a la carte runs to bluefin tuna cheek with seaweed escabeche, stewed lentils with duck gizzards and fresh foie gras, venison loin with roasted pumpkin tatin, Tierra de Campos squab with red wheat and beetroot, and roast suckling lamb shoulder from Castilla y Leon. Two tasting menus, of 11 and 14 courses, are served to the whole table.
Candeal opens for dinner Tuesday to Saturday from 7pm, with last entry at 9:30pm, and closes on Sunday and Monday. Tables of five or more order one of the tasting menus, and a card is requested when booking.
Address: Plaza Blas Infante 1, Bajo, Casco Antiguo, 29601 Marbella, Marbella
