Casa Araez

From a very young age, Antonio Araez threw himself into the world of cooking, where the aromas, pots, and ladles soon became his first travel companions.

He cooked with passion and heart, learning that every dish has its own story—and that the most important ingredient is always love.

Having grown up surrounded by the kitchen, Antonio decided it was time to take a step forward and create something of his own—something real, bearing his name and his unique flavor. It was then, together with Encarni, his life partner and co-conspirator in dreams, that they gave shape to a project that would not only be about cooking, but about creating a home for everyone who loves good food and genuine company.

That’s how Casa Araez was born, in Pilar de la Horadada. With one mission:

To create happy moments, one spoonful at a time, filling each table with good cheer, shared stories, and flavours that spark smiles.

Some years later, their daughter Cinthia joined the project, bringing with her fresh ideas, energy, and the same passion for cooking and hospitality that had always defined the family. With her, the love multiplied, the project grew stronger, and our table grew even larger—all while maintaining the family roots and spirit that set us apart.

We don’t have recipes with unpronounceable names, but we do have ingredients you can recognize by name and surname. Here, bread is dipped, plates are wiped clean, and laughter can be heard all the way from the kitchen.

They say cooking is an art; we believe it’s the perfect excuse to bring together people who care for each other—and who eat even better.

Here, it’s not just about eating. Here, you live the flavour.
