ALENAR Bodega Mediterranea
ALENAR is an old Valencian word meaning "to breathe deeply"—something we naturally do when standing before our beloved Mediterranean Sea.
We are a wine and tapas bar inspired by the traditional Spanish way of eating: sharing a variety of small dishes placed at the center of the table, meant to be enjoyed together.
Our menu features authentic tapas rooted in Valencian Mediterranean tradition. We don’t use a fryer or stove—so none of our dishes are fried. Most of our offerings are cold, with a few carefully prepared warm options.
While we don’t serve meat, aside from top-quality Spanish ham and our signature steak tartare, very few guests ever miss it.
Come and breathe in the sea. Eat the Mediterranean way. Slow down, share, and enjoy the moment.
