Even if they spend the whole day saving the world, even superheroes need a good lunch. And if they had a day off in Madrid, Marbella, or Tarifa, they wouldn’t head to Stark Tower. They’d go out to eat. Because between parallel universes and galactic battles, there’s one unshakable truth: nothing beats a good meal at Grupo Dani García.

Picture the scene. Tony Stark parking his car in front of BiBo Madrid with the same style he lands in Monaco. Thor arriving at Leña with his hammer, as if it were part of the décor. And Wolverine… well, he wouldn’t bother with a reservation. He’d just walk in and order his usual.

BiBo Madrid: flavors for globetrotters (and billionaire geniuses)

What Iron Man would order at BiBo Madrid
Tony Stark knows exactly what he wants: he picks BiBo for its international vibe, chic atmosphere, and a menu that takes you on a trip without leaving your seat. He’d go for a braised oxtail brioche with Bull sauce, guacamole made to order—because perfection doesn’t wait—and pair it with champagne, of course. Not to show off. Well… maybe a little.

And Peter Parker, if he could sneak in with his student ID, would also choose BiBo Tarifa.
Young, curious, and perpetually hungry, he’d go for Barbate tuna tartare, a Japanese tapa “because it sounds like science,” and an ice-cold Coke to toast with MJ for surviving another semester.

Leña Marbella: where heroes roar

Thor at Leña Marbella
No menu needed—just a table by the fire. At Leña, the God of Thunder finds his place. A tomahawk steak worthy of Valhalla, ribs that fall apart at the mere sight, and embers that crackle like Mjölnir itself. To drink? Mead. Or something close enough.

Wolverine, of course, picks Leña Madrid
Silent, intense, and with zero tolerance for lukewarm plates. He’d order the steak tartare with a wild touch, and maybe some croquettes… if he’s in a good mood. He doesn’t share. Food or table.

Tragabuches Marbella: tradition in a gala suit

Black Panther feels at home at Tragabuches
Elegant, deeply principled, and with absolute respect for authenticity. T’Challa would find perfect harmony here: rooted cuisine, ingredients with history, and a chilled gazpacho that reminds him luxury lies in simplicity. His signature dish? A stew served in a clay pot, the kind that smells like truth.

Lobito de Mar: a feast for stellar travellers

Doctor Strange at Lobito de Mar Madrid
Mysterious, calculated, and with refined taste. No capes here, but ceviches that border on magic, clams in manzanilla wine, and a dry seafood rice that opens sensory portals. He’d order a glass of white wine and sit studying the plate as if reading his destiny.

Captain Marvel lands at Lobito de Mar Marbella

And she doesn’t go small. Oysters, tuna baby burger, vine-shoot rice… and cheesecake to finish the mission in glory. Powerful, yes but also with a weakness for top-quality products and lingering, unhurried sobremesas.

And you—what would you order?

We may not have Captain America’s shield or Wanda’s powers, but we do have something just as important: a taste for eating well. At Grupo Dani García, each restaurant is a different experience, like its own universe within the multiverse of flavor.

“What superheroes would order at Grupo Dani García” isn’t just a fantasy—it’s the perfect excuse to look at the menu with fresh eyes, to choose dishes the way you’d choose your next mission. Because here, the world isn’t saved. It’s savored.

And if you’re still not sure, think like an Avenger: choose your restaurant, make your reservation, and join the most delicious league on the planet.

Marbella no se visita. Se vive. Se saborea. Desde que amanece hasta que cae el sol, tiene ese magnetismo andaluz que mezcla lujo, autenticidad y alegría sin esfuerzo. Aquí, cada plan puede ser una postal. Y si solo tienes un día, lo ideal es vivirlo sin prisas y con mucho apetito. Porque un día perfecto en Marbella empieza con mar, sigue con sol, y se termina como debe ser con un buen festín, o varios.

Paseo entre buganvillas y café con calma

Empieza la mañana en el casco antiguo, donde las fachadas blancas y los balcones floridos te saludan en cada esquina. Aquí, el desayuno no es un trámite: es una pausa deliciosa. Café con leche, pan artesanal con aceite andaluz y tomate del bueno. Nada como eso para entender que en Marbella la vida se vive despacio.

Playa, paseo marítimo o mercadillo

Puedes seguir hacia el mar, dar un paseo por la arena o descubrir algún mercadillo escondido entre urbanizaciones con encanto. Marbella tiene alma costera, pero también rural, chic y mediterránea a partes iguales. Cada calle es una invitación a improvisar.

Comida con sabor a sur en Tragabuches Marbella

La hora del almuerzo merece una mesa que hable andaluz. Y no hay mejor opción que Tragabuches, un homenaje a la cocina tradicional del sur, con productos de kilómetro cero y recetas con alma.

Aquí todo empieza con un sofrito. Con aceite de oliva que sabe a sol. Con platos que te recuerdan a casa aunque no seas de aquí. Prueba su ensaladilla rusa, su menú del día, o un guiso que parece hecho por una abuela con estrella Michelin. Andalucía se saborea en cada plato, y Tragabuches lo confirma con elegancia y fondo.

Siesta, piscina o paseo entre boutiques

Después de comer así, el cuerpo pide calma. Puedes darte un chapuzón, tumbarte al sol, o explorar las tiendas del centro o Puerto Banús. Lo importante es que lo hagas con la tranquilidad que solo llega después de un buen almuerzo y una copa de vino.

Tardeo marino en Lobito de Mar

A medida que baja el sol, el plan perfecto está en Lobito de Mar, ese restaurante que interpreta el espíritu del chiringuito clásico, pero lo eleva a otro nivel. Aquí el mar no se impone, se insinúa. Y se sirve en forma de ensaladas frescas, mariscos del día, boquerones con carácter y arroces que huelen a vacaciones.

Es el sitio ideal para un “tardeo” con acento salino: un vino blanco bien frío, una ración para compartir y ese murmullo de gente feliz que solo se escucha donde se come bien.

Cena entre brasas en Leña

Y cuando crees que el día no puede ir a más, llega Leña. El templo de la brasa. El fuego como técnica, como emoción, como espectáculo. Aquí, la carne madurada se trata como oro. Las verduras tienen carácter. Y cada plato es un equilibrio entre fuerza y elegancia.El fuego es el secreto en Leña, pero también lo es el ritmo del servicio, la estética del local, la sensación de estar donde todos quieren estar. El lugar perfecto para cerrar el día con un brindis, una sobremesa larga y la promesa silenciosa de volver.

Whether in Marbella or Madrid, this is a temple for those looking for more than just rice. This is where the journey begins.

Dry rices: the taste of fire and summer

There’s something truly special about a well-made dry rice. That moment when the bottom crisps into a perfect crust. That aroma that hits your nose and stays there. At Lobito de Mar, the dry rices make a bold statement.

T-Bone of Almadraba tuna rice is pure daring. A dish where sea and fire meet. The boldness of tuna made unforgettable. Then there’s the classic: the fish and seafood rice, like a miniature sea on a plate. Packed with flavour, texture, and that rich base that makes you close your eyes.

Perfect to eat rice in Marbella after a morning at the beach. Or to enjoy on a sunny terrace in Madrid while forgetting the world.

Sarmiento-smoked rices: fire, smoke and soul

Some rices you never forget. And then there are the sarmiento-smoked rices at Lobito. Cooked over vine shoot embers, they absorb that unmistakable smoky aroma. Intense. Unique. Full of soul.

Coquelet chicken rice is a refined twist on a traditional favourite. The Iberian pork rib and mushroom rice feels like a walk through the mountains. The smoked eel, lardo, and crispy nori rice is pure fantasy, it could be Japanese, but it tastes unmistakably Andalusian. And the most indulgent of all, the beef chop rice, is bold, juicy, and perfect for sharing.

In Madrid, over a long lunch with friends. Or in Marbella, after a sun-soaked morning. Eating rice in Madrid or by the coast has never been this exciting.

Creamy rices: spoonfuls of comfort

Creamy rices are like a warm hug. Smooth, rich, and full of depth. Each spoonful takes you somewhere else. Add seafood, and it gets even better.

The Sanlúcar prawn rice with black trumpet mushrooms blends the best of the sea and the forest. Pure harmony. The Huelva red shrimp version also features those earthy mushrooms, but with a more intense marine flavour. And a true crowd favourite: the lobster rice, a timeless classic. Indulgent, powerful, and unforgettable.

At Lobito de Mar Madrid, A toda vela surprises with a selection of starters, mains, and dessert that combine tradition, originality, and top-quality ingredients.

A high-flying start

It all begins with a Russian salad topped with smoked eel. Yes, salad. But not just any salad. Creamy, flavorful, and with that smoky twist that changes everything. There’s barely time to blink—it’s gone before anyone can ask for seconds. Next up: a mix of croquettes, little flavor bombs where the classic and the marine come together. Then come the chirlas sautéed with manzanilla wine, the kind of dish that calls for bread and silence, with an aroma that speaks for itself. And to round things off, a baby tuna burger with lamb’s lettuce. Small, juicy, and perfectly balanced—clearly the result of a lot of testing to get it just right.

The decisive moment

Now it’s time to choose. And it’s not easy. Four mains are battling for the spotlight. For fish lovers, there’s grilled sea bass loin, cooked to perfection with that crispy skin that crackles when you cut into it. Another option: tuna ribeye carpaccio with garlicky fried eggs. A surprising dish, full of texture, garlic aroma, and just the right amount of boldness to brighten your day. And of course, what can’t be missing from any equation involving Lobito de Mar, Madrid, arroz: the dry seafood and fish rice. Intense flavor, loose grains, and that deep, savory base that makes you close your eyes as you taste it.

A fourth contender steps up: arroz al sarmiento with coquelet chicken. That unmistakable smoky flavor you only get from real firewood, with tender, fall-apart chicken that’s full of flavor. The choice isn’t easy, but the result is always a win.

A glorious ending

And like any good menu, the ending lives up to the rest. A fresh cheesecake that puts the perfect finishing touch without overwhelming you. Light, creamy, and with that milky hint that brings back memories of the old-school kind—but with just the right touch to make you want to come back for it alone.

At Lobito de Mar Madrid, “A toda vela” is, at its core, a menu designed to bring the sea to your plate. For those who know that the best meals need no explanation—just good ingredients, a pleasant setting, and a team that understands soulful cooking. If one thing’s clear, it’s that with menus like this, satisfaction is guaranteed.

At Lobito de Mar in Marbella and Madrid, the tuna ribeye carpaccio is an unmissable experience. What makes it unique is its origin: a cut from the white loin of the tuna, specifically from the area between ribs 2, 3, 4, and 5. This section holds three prized and precise cuts: the descargamento, the tarantelo, and the ventresca. Together, they create a perfect balance of fat, texture, and flavor—a harmony that pays tribute to the most revered fish in the Atlantic. The ancient almadraba technique allows these specimens to be captured at their peak. Fishing is carried out with deep respect for the sea and its natural cycles. This is the only way to obtain a product that is fresh, seasonal, and of exceptional quality. This tuna carpaccio is no improvisation: it is carefully selected, refined, and honored. Its flavor connects sea and land, tradition and innovation, the present and memory.

Technique, Precision, and Respect

The tuna ribeye that reaches the table at Lobito de Mar is no coincidence. It comes from pieces selected with extreme meticulousness. Each tuna is caught using the almadraba method—a sustainable and regulated system still practiced along the coast of Cádiz. Thanks to the work of Gadira, the product retains its purity and properties. From each tuna, only the best is chosen: the descargamento brings firmness, the tarantelo offers juiciness, and the ventresca contributes a noble, soft, and unctuous fat. This combination turns the carpaccio into a refined and flavorful bite. In the hands of Dani García’s team, the tuna reaches a new dimension. Each slice is cut with millimetric precision—layer by layer—with technique and respect. The result is a light, clean, and characterful dish. A proposal where the product takes center stage, without unnecessary adornment. Because when you’re working with true tuna, nothing else is needed. Every detail is designed to highlight the marine essence of each bite.

A Marine Jewel in Two Cities

This tuna carpaccio is served in both Marbella and Madrid. At Lobito de Mar, the setting amplifies the experience: elegant, fresh, and with a seafaring soul. It’s not just about eating—it’s about living the Mediterranean through the plate. Behind each slice lies a story that begins in the southern sea, passes through the expert hands of Gadira, and ends in the kitchen of Dani García. A story of respect, quality, and commitment to authentic flavor. In Madrid, this tuna carpaccio brings the sea to the city in all its intensity. In Marbella, it’s savored with the gentle sound of waves in the background. Both cities offer a deeply marine experience: emotion, technique, and genuine flavor. This dish represents the connection between the age-old tradition of almadraba and Dani García’s contemporary vision.

Almadraba red tuna is one of the most prized treasures of the sea, and in the restaurants of chef Dani García, it is an essential ingredient, appreciated not only for its intense flavor but also for the unique properties that set it apart. One of those properties is collagen, a natural protein that plays a crucial role in the texture and juiciness of this fish. To ensure the highest quality, Dani García relies on Gadira, a supplier known for providing red tuna caught sustainably using the traditional almadraba technique.

The power of collagen in red tuna

Collagen is a structural protein found in the connective tissues of animals, including almadraba red tuna. This protein not only provides nutritional benefits but is also responsible for the juicy and firm texture that we so appreciate in this fish. However, to truly enjoy its juiciness, it is essential to cook tuna correctly. If cooked at too high a temperature, the collagen doesn’t have time to melt, which can leave the fish dry and chewy. To avoid this, it’s best to cook it slowly, allowing the collagen to melt and blend with the muscle fibers, creating a soft, juicy texture that melts in your mouth.

How to cook tuna to make the most of its collagen

To get the most out of the collagen in red tuna, it’s essential to follow certain cooking techniques. One option is tataki, a Japanese method that involves quickly searing the tuna at high heat and then cooling it, sealing the juices inside while maintaining a soft texture. Another approach is grilling, but always being careful not to overcook it so it doesn’t lose its natural juiciness. You can also opt for slow-cooked stews, where the collagen has time to fully melt, enhancing the flavor and texture of the dish. Gadira ensures that each piece of tuna retains these properties, guaranteeing an unparalleled culinary experience.

Benefits of red tuna collagen beyond flavor

In addition to enhancing texture, red tuna collagen also offers multiple health benefits. This protein is known for improving skin elasticity, strengthening joints, and promoting bone health. So, when you enjoy a plate of red tuna at Lobito de Mar, you’re not just savoring a marine delicacy, you’re also nourishing your body with essential nutrients.

There are signs that mark the beginning of good weather. Longer days. Bluer skies. A craving for the sea—and for espetos. Because when months without R arrive at Lobito de Mar, we know something changes. There’s a scent of summer in the air, of glowing embers, of sardines sizzling over the sand, of sliced lemons and salt.

May is the month that confirms it. The “R” is gone. The heat stays—and so do the espetos.
It’s the exact moment when hunger, nostalgia, and the longing for sunshine align.

A table facing the sea. An ice-cold beer. An espeto worth waiting for. And when it finally arrives, it does so in glory. Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside. A taste that takes you places. A ritual that might seem simple, but isn’t. Because making an espeto isn’t just about skewering a sardine. It’s fire, it’s time, it’s breeze. And in May, all of that comes alive at Lobito de Mar.

Espetos under the sun

Here, the espeto is tradition. Every turn of the skewer, every pinch of salt, every glowing coal—each moment tastes like summer. And just like that, May welcomes us into a season of long laughs, lazy Sundays, and everything tasting better when cooked over fire.
Here, espetos tell stories that begin in beach bars and stay with you forever.

So when you hear “espetos,” think of May. Think of sunshine. Think of Lobito de Mar.
Because here, months without R are meant to be celebrated at Lobito de Mar. To be lived. To be savored—with your hands, and with your soul.

It’s the season that reminds us the best is yet to come. That happiness can be served in a beer glass. That a freshly grilled espeto says more than a thousand words. And that May smells of smoke, salt, and promise.

A promise of summer, the unhurried days, true flavor and those special things that only happen at Lobito de Mar.

With the arrival of spring, the sea comes alive once again in the kitchen.
And that can only mean one thing: the tuna season at Lobito de Mar has begun.
A time that marks the culinary calendar in red ink, just like the prized loin of Almadraba bluefin tuna.

From April 23 to June 1, Lobito de Mar Madrid and Marbella become temples of ocean flavor.
Chef Dani García has created an exclusive menu focused on tuna, with dishes that pay tribute to this extraordinary product.

The menu features unique creations such as white loin ceviche and black loin chirashi sushi.
Also standing out are dishes like paprika-pickled tuna belly and Andalusian-style braised contramormo.
Tuna takes center stage, and every dish showcases its versatility and culinary power.

Ronqueos

In addition, Grupo Dani García has prepared two Almadraba wild bluefin tuna ronqueos in collaboration with Gadira. Gadira is a benchmark company known for its commitment to sustainable and selective fishing, respectful of the marine environment.
The first ronqueo will take place on May 9 at Tragabuches Marbella, in a day that blends sea, land, and tradition. That same day, there will also be a live demonstration of the Iberian pork butchery by Cinco Jotas, another gem of Spanish gastronomy.
Guests will enjoy a dinner featuring the finest cuts of both tuna and pork, ending with a perfectly chilled Cruzcampo beer.

The second ronqueo will be held on May 13 at Dani Brasserie, on the terrace of the Four Seasons Hotel Madrid.
With views over the Madrid skyline, this event offers a live look at the ancestral technique of tuna ronqueo.
A precise, almost hypnotic practice that honors the nobility of the Almadraba bluefin tuna.
A gastronomic performance that leaves no one indifferent, elevating this product to an almost artistic level.

The Art of Tuna

But if there’s one thing you shouldn’t miss this spring, it’s the tuna season at Lobito de Mar.
A unique proposal to enjoy tuna like never before, infused with the creative touch of Dani García.
Every dish has been crafted to move the diner and transport them to the purest Atlantic essence.
From raw and fresh bites to slow-cooked creations, tuna reveals itself in all its forms.

This new edition of “The Art of Tuna” is a celebration of the Andalusian coast, its flavors, and its roots.
It takes place in two cities, but with a single goal: to honor tuna and its legacy.
Each dish contains the sea, craftsmanship, and deep respect for a product that deserves it all.
A season that lasts just a few weeks but leaves a lasting impression on those who live it.
