Casa Bernardi Benissa: a Michelin star ten minutes from Moraira
Casa Bernardi: the nearest starred restaurant
Casa Bernardi in Benissa is the starred restaurant closest to Moraira: a ten-minute drive, and since the 2026 guide it holds one Michelin star. The kitchen is contemporary Italian and works with set menus.
Set menus only, and what that means for the price
No. You choose from set menus, among them a pasta menu, and according to the reviews these are explained at the table before you decide. That is pleasant, but it also means you do not put the price together yourself. Michelin places the restaurant in the highest price bracket, and so does Google. Ask what the menus cost when you book, and you know what you are getting into. One more thing worth saying honestly: a guest writes that the dining room itself is nothing special, but that everything else is. You come here for the food and the view, not for a designed dining room. On allergens the experience is good: a guest with several dietary requirements at the table reports that it was sorted out without any fuss.
Location
Casa Bernardi is at Partida Pedramala 60C, in the hills of Benissa rather than in the village centre. From Calamora it is about six kilometres, a ten-minute drive. It is a rural address, so follow the satnav and not your instinct.
The menu and what they pour
Contemporary Italian, in set menus. The reviews come back most often to the risotto with tomato and aubergine and to the pasta menu, and the sommelier earns praise of his own. They bake their own bread and pastries, and those are for sale to take away as well: the focaccia with sun-dried tomato and the bread with nuts and raisins are mentioned by name.

Where can I park?
The restaurant is outside the built-up area, so you come by car. Bear in mind that after a menu with wine pairing you will not be driving back yourself; a taxi from Moraira is a short ride.

Is there seating outside?
That is not in the public listings. The view does come back again and again in the reviews, so ask when you book for a table where you get the best of it.
