The home of the sea

Estimar is a seafood restaurant where the product takes center stage.

Fish and seafood selected every morning, treated with respect and served without fuss. Estimar is a cuisine rooted in the sea, the grill, and the freshness of the finest ingredients. Minimal handling and precise technique to bring out maximum flavor. A true declaration of love for the sea.

It was founded by Anna Gotanegra and chef Rafa Zafra with an idea as simple as it is demanding: to bring the best of the sea to the table. Behind every dish is something you can’t improvise: THE PRODUCT, the soul of Estimar.

With the gratitude of our beloved fishermen and the blessing of Our Lady of Mount Carmel.

The Chef

RAFA ZAFRA

Rafa Zafra’s cooking is rooted in respect. Respect for the product, for those who work with it, and for a way of understanding gastronomy where excellence needs no artifice.

“Every dish starts with a simple question: what does this product really need? The answer is almost always the same: very little.”
