Chef Israel Ramos, a native of Jerez, honed his culinary skills at esteemed establishments such as La Alquería at Hacienda Benazuza and Tragabuches in Ronda. In 2017, he opened Mantúa Restaurante, named after a historic grape variety once prevalent in the Jerez region. The restaurant’s minimalist design directs attention to the meticulously crafted dishes that celebrate the essence of Andalusian cuisine. By November 2019, Mantúa earned its first Michelin star, recognizing Ramos’s dedication to quality and innovation.
Mantúa offers two tasting menus—Arcilla and Caliza—that showcase contemporary interpretations of regional dishes, emphasizing local ingredients. The wine pairings highlight selections from the Jerez area, enhancing the connection between the cuisine and its origins. Located in Plaza Aladro, Mantúa provides an intimate setting with limited seating, ensuring personalized service. This establishment is ideal for those seeking a sophisticated dining experience that reflects the rich culinary heritage of Jerez.
