Lienzo occupies an elegant building with a minimalist feel. The decor here fully respects the name of the restaurant (“canvas” in English) thanks to the whitewashed walls embellished with striking, colourful canvases by Valencian artists which change every three months.
Murcia-born chef María José Martínez, ably supported by her husband Juanjo Soria in the dining room, creates modern Mediterranean cuisine with no little creativity that showcases and fully respects seasonal Valencian ingredients from its market gardens, mountains and coastal waters. These are presented to their best in delicately prepared and meticulously presented dishes, including sublime sauces and creams, all of which feature on several enticing set menus: one “executive” option (Trazos) and two tasting menus (Pinceladas and Lienzo).
