Carmela is not from here, but she is not from there either. Its cuisine is inspired by our lands, but its ingredients can be born anywhere. And besides, Carmela puts something totally unique in the pot. The salt of your life. In quantities that only her heart knows. Carmela cooks like at home. Surrounded by love, colors, textures and memories. What are you coming to eat? Feelings, but on the plate.

Pair your meal with a selection of wines or artisanal cocktails, and enjoy a standout gastronomic experience on the World's 50 Best list.

    Recientemente visité Carmela y Sal y fue una experiencia increíble. Desde el momento en que entré, el ambiente acogedor y la decoración única me hicieron sentir como en casa. El servicio fue excepcional; el personal fue amable y atento, siempre dispuesto a ofrecer recomendaciones. La comida fue, sin duda, lo mejor de la visita. Probé las especialidades de la casa y cada bocado era una explosión de sabores. La presentación de los platos también fue impecable, lo que hizo que la experiencia fuera aún más especial. Además, el restaurante ofrece una selección de bebidas que complementan perfectamente los platillos. No puedo dejar de mencionar el pastel de chocolate que definitivamente vale la pena probar. Si buscas un lugar para disfrutar de buena comida y un excelente servicio, ¡no dudes en visitar Camela y Sal!. Estoy segura de que te encantará tanto como a mi.

    We had an amazing dinner at Carmela y Sal for Valentine’s Day. My husband had an app and a main course and I had the tasting menu. Everything was delicious and the service was very good. It was VERY loud where we were seated (in back room where bar is located). In fact, a couple was seated next to us and almost immediately asked to be moved to a quieter table.

    I was so disappointed by the food. I was looking forward to a great meal but didn’t have it. Risotto had a very sour sauce
