Regadera ★ 4.5

€€€ AndalusianRiberaChef Adrián Caballero

Regadera sits on Córdoba's Ronda de Isasa with the Guadalquivir outside, Adrián Caballero cooking cordobés classics from a kitchen open to the room.

OrderThe salmorejo, then the flamenquín, both rebuilt rather than reinvented.

TipThe riverside tables go first at sunset, so ask for one when you book rather than on arrival.

Puerta Sevilla ★ 4.3

€€€ AndalusianSan Basilio

Puerta Sevilla fills a 200-year-old San Basilio house in Córdoba, five private rooms and a planted patio serving arroz del señorito and hake costrón.

OrderArroz del señorito, then the Texturas de Pedro Ximénez for dessert.

TipAsk for the patio rather than a salón; the upstairs rooms are handsome but the courtyard is the point.

Ermita de la Candelaria ★ 4.4

€€€ AndalusianCentro

Ermita de la Candelaria cooks inside a converted hermitage in Córdoba, almond-sauce meatballs and honeyed aubergine under a Sol from the Repsol guide.

OrderThe albóndigas in almond sauce, a direct descendant of the Andalusi kitchen.

TipThe building is a former chapel, so tables are few; book a midweek lunch if you want the easiest table.

Noor 3 ★ ★ 4.9

€€€€ AndalusianSuresteChef Paco Morales

Noor is Paco Morales's three-star kitchen in Córdoba, rebuilding the food of the caliphate from Andalusi manuscripts in a plain eastern shopfront.

OrderWhichever full menu is running; the room does no carte.

BookWeeks ahead; the room seats very few ahead

TipNoor works in seasons and closes between them, so check the calendar before you book flights around a table here.

Choco 1 ★ ★ 4.7

€€€€ AndalusianPonienteChef Kisko García

Choco is Kisko García's Michelin-starred dining room in Córdoba, a thirty-cover kitchen on a residential Poniente street that shuts for all of August.

OrderThe full author menu; the kitchen is built around it.

BookTwo to three weeks ahead

TipLunch service runs only from 13:30 to 15:00, so a late arrival loses the table entirely.

ReComiendo 1 ★ ★ 4.7

€€€€ Tasting €98 to €140AndalusianEl BrillanteChef Periko Ortega

ReComiendo in Córdoba is Periko Ortega's tasting-menu room out in Mirabueno, awarded its first Michelin star at the Málaga gala in November 2025.

OrderThe MeMoria tasting menu at €108, adding the Armonías Memento pairing for the full experience.

BookAdvance booking required, no walk-ins ahead

TipReservation is compulsory and the kitchen runs long, so keep the whole evening free and book nothing afterwards.
