Extra El Taller

Recognising the value of its distinctive culinary approach, this restaurant, run by chef Álvaro Herreros, has been recommended in the 2026 Repsol Guide

Torremolinos

El Taller is one of those places where time seems to stand still, stress is left at the door and diners can immerse themselves in a genuinely different and exclusive dining experience.

In his most personal project, chef Álvaro Herreros does away with hobs and fryers, instead relying on techniques such as oven cooking, low-temperature methods, pickling, curing, brining, marinades and gentle, slow cooking. The result is a creative, lighter style of cuisine designed to bring out the very best in each ingredient.

Recently, the Guía Repsol 2026 included El Taller among its recommended restaurants. It is a significant endorsement of the project and clear evidence that there is room in Torremolinos for other culinary ideas beyond the fried fish and espetos that define much of the town’s dining scene.

A contemporary take on Andalusian recipes

El Taller is an intimate restaurant with just a few tables, a calm atmosphere and close attention to detail, making it the perfect setting to experience its distinctive approach to cooking. Beyond the chef’s personal techniques, the kitchen at El Taller offers a contemporary take on traditional Andalusian recipes, adding a personal twist and subtle influences from other culinary cultures, including Asian cuisine.

This leads to dishes as original as prawn gyoza with pil-pil sauce and kimchi gazpachuelo, or red tuna belly tartare with slow-cooked tomatoes and a reduction of oloroso sherry and vermouth.
