In the heart of sun-drenched Marbella, amidst its myriad culinary delights, Nintai Marbella stands out as a profound embodiment of Japanese gastronomic brilliance. This Michelin-starred gem, birthed from the visions of the esteemed sommelier Marcos Granda, captures the essence of his transformative journey through Japan. Granda's deep admiration for Japan's intricate culinary traditions and utmost respect for ingredients resonates in every facet of Nintai.
The interiors of Nintai, painted with pure, simplistic lines and bathed in natural light from its generous windows, radiate tranquillity. The centerpiece, a meticulously designed sushi bar with 12 seats, provides diners an intimate view of the "itamae" style of cooking.

While the main courses are a harmonious ballet of traditional flavors and techniques, Nintai's desserts introduce a delightful twist, ensuring every course is an adventure. And to further elevate the dining experience, the restaurant boasts what many consider Spain's most distinguished sake menu. Among our favorites, and that of our circle, Nintai Marbella remains a beacon of culinary artistry, etching unforgettable memories with every visit.
