The most budget-friendly option on the list is the Villa Retiro restaurant, located in Xerta (Baix Ebre, Tarragona). This establishment, which has held its Michelin Star since 2009, offers the 'Clásico' menu for 72 euros, focusing on the traditional market cuisine of the Terres de l'Ebre region.
In Barcelona, two fusion concepts stand out. Kamikaze, awarded a star at the Málaga gala for the 2026 Michelin Guide, offers an Asian fusion tasting menu using local products for 85 euros, led by chef Enric Buendía. Also in the capital, MAE Barcelona (in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi) presents its 'MAE' menu for 95 euros, resulting from the culinary union of chefs Mariella Rodriguez, Diego Mondragón, and Germán Espinosa.
The Mediterranean diet plays an essential role as a factor of social cohesion in cultural spaces, festivities and celebrations, bringing together people of all ages, conditions and social classes.
Outside the metropolitan area, the Malena restaurant in Gimenells (Segrià, Lleida) offers its blackboard menu for 90.75 euros, featuring a creative proposal deeply rooted in the territory, led by chefs Xixo Castaño and Llum Oliva. Meanwhile, in Arbúcies (La Selva, Girona), Les Magnòlies offers the 'Un paseo por el Montseny' menu for 94 euros, based on local and ecological products.
Other renowned options in Catalonia that slightly exceed the 100 euro threshold include Voramar (Alt Empordà), Els Casals (Berguedà), and Caelis in Ciutat Vella (Barcelona), which is also known for offering a vegetarian tasting menu.
