Lienzo

Restaurante Lienzo in Valencia, Spain, is distinguished by its one Michelin star since 2021 and a Sol Repsol award held since 2020. Originating from an art gallery, the restaurant blends visual and culinary arts, with walls adorned by works from prominent artists alongside its innovative cuisine. Under Chef María José Martínez, the kitchen offers modern Mediterranean dishes that reflect a deep respect for Valencian seasonal products sourced from the orchard, sea, and mountains. Martínez integrates sustainability throughout her culinary approach, incorporating urban beekeeping products like honey and beeswax into dishes such as honey-certified cannelloni and corzo demi-glace with honey vinaigrette. She earned the Sustainability Award Aquanaria Madrid Fusión 2024 for these efforts. The dining room and wine service, led by Juanjo Soria—ranked among the top sommeliers nationally—ensure a refined and attentive experience. Lienzo is internationally recognized for redefining plant-based cuisine in Valencia, going beyond traditional vegetarian fare with creative flavors and presentation. The elegant interior maintains the artistic spirit of its gallery origins, displaying rotating artworks that enhance the cultured atmosphere. Signature tasting menus include the 10-course Menú Pinceladas and the 14-course Menú Lienzo.
