Azafrán – the Spanish word for saffron – is more than a restaurant, it is a unique culinary journey with gracious European-style service. Like the spice itself, Azafrán is a subtle, luxurious difference that must be experienced to be fully understood. Chef Andreas offers a fresh, sustainable and refined approach to the kitchen, using only the finest local ingredients for a modern mix of classics from his mother’s kitchen, innovative Mediterranean cuisine and refined European technique.
