Xanthe Restaurant
Flow with us...
It's better not to pigeonhole our cuisine into a single style; here we flow with the rhythms of nature and the abundance of Mother Earth, which not only provides us with her fruits but also inspires us day by day, season by season.
Aromas and spices without borders awaken over the fire: local products and traditions blend with elements from afar. We go for freshness, purity and organic ingredients. Our food comes from the garden and the farm; it is harvested on the spot and transformed into culinary art by Juan Carlos, chef and host. Plus creativity and love.
