Some places are discovered through sight, others through sound… but Almería is discovered through taste. Anyone who has tried a sun-ripened tomato freshly picked in the Poniente, a grilled red prawn from Garrucha, or a sip of bold red wine from the Sierra de Gádor knows exactly what we mean. Almería is often called the “Garden of Europe” — and rightly so. Over 3.5 million tonnes of fruits and vegetables leave this fertile, sun-drenched land every year, bound for the most demanding tables across the continent.
But there’s one thing that can’t be shipped: the experience of tasting these products right where they’re born.
At Almería Concierge, we design culinary routes and experiences that connect the finest local ingredients with the talent of those who know how to elevate them. Tailor-made, intimate, and truly unforgettable experiences.
Michelin Guide Recommendations
In the latest edition of the Michelin Guide 2025, several restaurants in Almería have been recognized for their culinary excellence. For those seeking a gourmet dining experience in Almería, we guide our clients through the Michelin recommendations to ensure their choice matches their taste and expectations.
Places like Terraza Carmona, in Vera — a classic that honours traditional local recipes with elegance — or Restaurante Alejandro, in Roquetas de Mar, where the sea is reimagined through contemporary cuisine with deep-rooted traditions.
The best part? You simply arrive and enjoy. We take care of everything. From securing the best table and ensuring personalized attention, to handling any special requests before you even unfold your napkin.
We’ve arranged everything from vegan and gluten-free menus to private dining rooms, full restaurant buyouts on request, and VIP transfers from villas or yachts.
Gastronomic Experiences Among the Vineyards
We’re often asked if Almería produces good wine. Our answer is always the same: come and taste it. Because what some of the local wineries are doing here is truly worth sharing — and toasting to. In places like Laujar, Uleila, and the Sierra de Alhamilla, passionate winemakers are reviving forgotten grape varieties, caring for the land, and crafting wines that are already winning awards across Europe and beyond.
That’s why these wineries have become some of our greatest allies. We work closely with several of the finest estates in Almería to create exclusive private experiences among the vines:private tours, tastings with the winemaker, lunches among the vineyards, sunset walks with a glass in hand… Experiences available exclusively through Almería Concierge.
The Luxury of having your own Private Chef
For those seeking privacy and excellence without leaving home, we bring the culinary experience straight to your villa. Our private chefs are highly trained professionals who design a menu tailored to your preferences, shop at local markets, and cook exclusively for you.
A terrace brunch, a live showcooking to surprise your guests, or an entire week with a resident chef? Everything is possible. And every detail is taken care of — from the perfect wine pairing to full service and cleanup.
Almería isn’t just discovered on foot — it’s also experienced through its local flavours.
And if you know who to call, that experience becomes truly unforgettable.
