The story
Apicius, at Eolo 7 in Valencia, is a modern Cuisine restaurant that the Michelin Guide listed as Recommended in 2026. The restaurant has operated in the city since 2007 and describes its cooking as seasonal Mediterranean food built around regional produce.
Enrique Medina leads the kitchen. Before opening Apicius he worked in luxury hotels and restaurants in Spain and France, and the restaurant says his cooking joins tradition and modernity. The Mediterranean kitchen aims for clean flavours, precise preparations and ingredients that stay at the centre of each plate.
Yvonne Arcidiacono runs the dining room as head of service. The team tailors service to each guest, and one reviewer praised staff who speak several languages. The room is described as refined and calm, with attention to small details.
The wine list leans on bottles from the Valencian Community, which one guest found a good introduction to the region's wines. In 2026 the We're Smart Green Guide awarded the restaurant 4 Radishes.
