Dénia is a magical place where history and nature embrace in perfect harmony, and in this privileged setting, their restaurant finds its inspiration, on the perfect balance of tradition and innovation. Looking toward the future without forgetting everything the past has taught them.
Sea & Land: The Essence of their Cuisine
At Peix & Brases, the product is king. Every day, their chefs visit Dénia’s fish market and others throughout the Valencian Community in search of the finest seafood. The undisputed star of our kitchen is the Dénia red prawn, which can be enjoyed boiled in seawater or grilled, enhancing its unparalleled sweetness and texture. But it’s not alone—Norway lobsters, langoustines, lobsters, sea urchins, and sea cucumbers all feature on a menu that pays homage to the Mediterranean.
The land also plays a fundamental role in our cuisine. Artichokes, asparagus, tomatoes, and peppers are combined with the best seafood to create dishes that honor seasonality and regional ingredients.
Flavors to Fall in Love With: Signature Dishes
The Peix & Brases menu is full of creations that captivate the palate.
Among the cold starters, the standout dish is bluefin tuna belly crudo with San Marzano tomato pulp and Montgó mountain aromatic herbs, an explosion of freshness and flavor. Another must-try is the market langoustine salad with smoked eel, where the delicate seafood is perfectly complemented by the smoky eel.
For hot starters, the sea cucumbers in sheep butter sauce with caviar offer an exquisite and creamy bite, while the garlic shrimp crowned with “revolcona marinera” and free-range egg yolk is a true delight, enhancing the seafood’s flavors with rich, intense notes.
Rice dishes are a hallmark of our restaurant. The arroz a banda with Dénia red prawn is a tribute to Valencian tradition, while the dry rice with Iberian pork secreto, seasonal vegetables, and truffle surprises with its earthy and smoky balance. For those who prefer a creamier texture, the lobster “meloso” rice is a sublime choice, featuring a deep broth that elevates every grain of rice.
Among the main courses, the grilled market fish with vine shoot embers preserves the pure essence of the sea, while the matured duck magret with roasted sweet potato, spicy sprouts, and truffle offers a harmonious combination of sweetness and umami.
The Wine Cellar: A Journey Through Wines
To enhance the gastronomic experience, Peix & Brases boasts an exceptional wine cellar with over 400 national and international selections. Under the expert guidance of sommelier José Ignacio Arribas, each glass complements and elevates the flavors of the dishes, turning every meal into a true sensory feast.
