Lienzo

Contemporary Valencian · valencia · Ciutat Vella · Michelin One Star · Chef María José Martínez

Lienzo — meaning 'canvas' — is chef María José Martínez's MICHELIN-starred restaurant on Plaza de Tetuán in Valencia's historic centre. Like the blank white walls of a gallery, the restaurant's clean aesthetic sets the stage for Martínez's painterly cooking: a honey-threaded, product-obsessed cuisine rooted in Valencia's sea, huerta, and beekeeping traditions. Three tasting menus of different lengths and budgets are available, with an iconic supplementary calamar dish served at extra cost. Sala director and sommelier Juanjo Soria conducts the service with precision and warmth.

  • Calamar (15) — Lienzo's most iconic preparation — the celebrated calamar (squid) that is simultaneously tender and crispy, an indispensable supplement served at extra cost (€15) on all menu tiers. 'Tierno (sin ser chicloso) y crujiente a partes iguales' — tender without being chewy, and crisp throughout. An unmissable dish.

Tasting Menu

  • Pinceladas (120) — Lienzo's intermediate tasting menu — 'Painted Touches' — a mid-length experience that extends the flavour journey of Trazos with additional courses and greater ambition.
  • Lienzo (120) — The full canvas — Lienzo's flagship tasting menu, the most complete expression of Martínez's seasonal, honey-driven Mediterranean cooking, from opening snacks to the final dessert celebrating Valencia's urban beekeeping.
  • Trazos (74) — Lienzo's entry-level tasting menu — 'Brushstrokes' — a shorter, more accessible format that introduces guests to Martínez's honey-led cooking philosophy without the full canvas of the flagship experience.
  • Price: The 14-course Lienzo menu costs (120)
