Open is a real gem in Alicante. Innovative food, great service.

WOW! we see why @restauranteopen got a michelin nod. from the moment we sat down from the greeting at the door, the ambiance, attentiveness of the staff and of course the amazing food. we’ve already made reservations for a second and third time. we started with smoked oyster, grilled razor clam, cockles with sherry and glasswort then they split our mains se we could each try the grilled fish and pork trotters with shrimp and mushrooms. the desserts reminded me of stephan pyles (a dallas chef) the way the flavors complemented the others. we also found a new cava too! overall an amazing evening worth repeating. well done open!

Getting to the bottom line up front, Open is a sensational restaurant with fantastic service and truly exceptional plates. It will be a go-to for me from now on, especially when I have out-of-town visitors. Alicante is a true epicurean town with a vast array of cuisines and more restaurants than anyone can count. Open stands out. My starter of smoked eel sausage with cauliflower and mushrooms was unique and something I will recommend to others. I was having trouble deciding on my main course, but Open conveniently allows for half orders in such cases so I ordered both the fish of the day, served with what seems like an incongruent mushroom sauce but, in reality, was simply fantastic. My other half's entrée was the Pork Trotters with shrimp and mushroom in a savory sauce that made me want to order more bread. I am running out of space, so I won't describe the dessert (grapefruit with blood orange and Compari ice cream), but it may be the best I've ever had. Go to Open, it is great!

The people are lovely, and the food really is pretty good. although too heavy on the meat and not enough vegetables, but their theory is that everything should be split in half, so that if you are sensitive to one thing you have to eat it. if your partner wants to eat it. it is their theory and it is the way they do things but it is not something I enjoy

We were 4 persons who was placed at a table in the kitchen and we had one of the best dinner experiences ever. There were attention all the time and we got ongoing explanations of food and wine. Fantastic experience which will be told among our circle of friends and family, Will definitely be repeated

Very creative use of typical Spanish ingredients. Cleverly, they had an English menu with a QR code and were very helpful when our Spanish failed us. It is probably best to plan to share meals, but we did not and very much enjoyed our food. Highly recommend the atún catalana and the whisky cheesecake (much milder than cheesecake in the US) was delicious. If you are going on a Saturday night, parking may be dicey so plan accordingly.

OPEN restaurante is first class dining at its best. The menu is Mediterranean cuisine with the right balance of flavors & textures offering a wide variety of shared fish & meat plates. The food is creative. We dined last night with some friends and they surprised us by offering us the Chef's Table in the kitchen where we enjoyed watching the Chefs creating each dish. The wine list offers local & regional labels. This has truly become one of my absolute favorite restaurants in Alicante!

The food in this place is truly incredible, though definitely Spanish in its origins, each dish is far from the usual fare. I miss a bit some more variety in non-alcoholic drinks, Coke just doesn’t go with it, how about some home-made lemonade or something? The service can get so much it gets confusing, but overall professional. Just the place is too cool, we were freezing…
