About this restaurant

Located in the heart of La Casa de la Playa, Xal offers a gastronomic experience that honors the fusion of three great culinary traditions: Mexican, Filipino, and Basque. Inspired by the Manila Galleon Route, this concept is the work of chef Andoni Luis Aduriz, who blends flavors, techniques, and ingredients from these cultures to create dishes that tell a story of exchange and mestizaje. At Xal, every bite is an invitation to explore the richness of the gastronomic heritage of Mexico, the Philippines, and the Basque Country. Visit us and immerse yourself in a culinary adventure that celebrates the meeting of cultures and the art of cooking.
