Breathe

My husband and I first came here for our anniversary in 2024, where the food and service were absolutely impeccable. Because of that top-notch experience, we suggested it to our friends who came to visit us in Spain this year, and Breathe did not disappoint! We didn't have reservations and had a 45-minute wait, so we walked down to Puerto Banús and took a taxi back. The atmosphere here is elegant and breathtaking. Our server, Adrián, provided outstanding service and was incredibly welcoming. He also mentioned that normally it is practically impossible to get in without a reservation, but tourism was temporarily quieter due to the World Cup in the US. The meal was well worth the wait! For starters, we had the edamame and the grilled artichoke. The artichoke wasn’t what we expected, but it was wonderful (though the portion was enough for only about three people). For mains, my friend said the seabass was delicious, and the pesto ravioli my husband ordered came with four large ravioli. The sushi I had was incredibly fresh and delicious. Our friends also loved the Scarlet Waves cocktails, which came with a beautiful chocolate rim and a chocolate curl on top—they even ordered a second round! P.S. Before leaving, we discovered their stunning rooftop bar, Air. We wished we had visited it for a drink, but I’ve included some photos of it for reference!

You almost notice this place the moment you arrive in Málaga – Breathe is heavily advertised, and people often mention it when you say you’re in the area. That naturally creates some skepticism: is it just a place for trendy people and Instagram? We decided to try it anyway – and we’re glad we did. Make sure to book in advance, especially in high season. Parking is easy in the building underneath (paid), but remember to mention it in the restaurant and you’ll get a voucher, so parking ends up being free. From the moment you arrive, you feel the level. Beautiful interior, stylish atmosphere, and guests who have clearly dressed for the occasion. We were shown to a great table, and everything feels well thought out. We chose a selection of sushi and several of their signature cocktails. The drinks were visually stunning and tasted excellent, and the food matched – both in presentation and flavour. The vibe is lounge/club with dim lighting and music, and attention to detail is everywhere – from branded water bottles to small practical touches like hooks for handbags at the table. Yes, it’s a trendy place with a crowd that likes to be seen, and prices are on the higher side. But it’s also a complete experience, and the staff deliver throughout. Definitely a place worth visiting when in Marbella 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had a great culinary experience at Breathe. Their menu offers great variety of Mediterranean/ Asian fusion dishes. We shared the dim sum and the wagyu kebab as starters, and the iberico presa as a main with a side of garlic herb roasted. All dishes were presented phenomenally and tasted great! They have an interesting wine list also. We picked a Catalonian Cab Sauvignon (Abadal 3.9). For dessert we had the banana cheesecake, which was really nice. Additionally, they have an abundant cocktail list. It's a bit pricy, but worth it for a great experience.

Great rooftop bar in Puerto banus. Definitely the best one. The staff are friendly and can’t go wrong with a classic cocktail! Nice view, great atmosphere, when they have a dj it’s great vibes especially! Very cute bathroom for the girlies who like pictures!

We were here for a private event and had a great experience. The food and drinks were really good, everything was well prepared and nicely presented. The atmosphere worked really well for the event and the whole setup felt smooth and well organised. Overall a really solid venue, would definitely come back.

We love coming here! Food is always good and good gluten free options. Always good sevice from the team - today Mateo and Francisco. The cheese balls and The cappuccino tiramisu was the highlight today!!! So good 12/10. Only thing to mention would be to put more sauce in the curry main course.

Fantastic meal at Breathe in Marbella, Mateo and Pedro were so helpful and gave excellent service and recommendations for the menu. Beautiful setting as well. We can definitely recommend this restaurant!
