El Lago

As an antidote to the frenzy of summer in Marbella, head to El Lago, in the clubhouse of the Greenlife Golf complex. Here, you’ll find a haven of peace and tranquillity thanks to the harmony of the surroundings and views of a large lake, especially from the stunning summer terrace. All of this provides an idyllic backdrop for the cuisine at this Michelin-starred restaurant.
Málaga-born chef Fernando Villasclaras continues El Lago’s desire for seasonally based Andalucian cuisine that uses zero-mile or locally sourced ingredients. The à la carte is complemented by a specific (and more informal) lunchtime option called Midi, and the organic-focused Sazón tasting menu – a word that refers to the point at which ingredients reach their point of perfect ripeness or maturity.
