If you are looking to sample some of the best sushi and Pan-Asian cuisine on the coast you have come to the right place.
The elaborate Infuschia menu, compiled by none other than celebrity chef Ian Pengelley from the likes of Gilgamesh and Nozomi in London, ensures this is going to be a five-star dining experience like no other.
From the watermelon and prawn gazpacho starter accompanying our plush sushi platter entree to the chicken wings, sticky chinese ribs; every mouthful was heavenly.
Infuschia will definitely not disappoint even the most discerning of sushi connoisseurs – with a vast selection of every imaginable type, including Maki Rolls, Niguiri Mix and Sashimi in salmon, tuna, seabass and prawn.
Portion sizes in Infuschia are generous, the fish delightfully fresh and even accompanying presentational touches such as the spicy sesame sauce and wasabi foam swirls were not purely decorative, adding superb taste explosions to the sushi selection.
When we moved onto the main courses we were equally impressed by both the selection and presentation. By far the best dish was the chef´s recommendation of Bulgogi, succulent beef layered on a bed of mash with a sweet, sticky sauce.
The Coconut Rice, Beef Panang, Chicken Satay with Chilli and Thai Curry dips were also fantastic. Infuschia also offer great set menu options, which combines up to 10 top dishes on the menu, for only €35 a head.
The newly renovated restaurant is situated inside iconic Puerto Banus nightspot, Tibu and it´s as decadent as you would expect. White walled with drapes, UV lighting and chandeliers adorning the high ceiling – it is definitely a cool and edgy place to start a night out. As is synonymous with its sister nightclub, Tibu, there is a young, gorgeous crowd to boost. The latest deep house chill out music playing in the restaurant definitely adds to its ambience.
Another plus for Infuschia is its open balcony location, only one minute from the port in Antonio Banderes Square, making this a great place to people watch.
The staff at Infuschia were also incredibly friendly and attentive. The Maître D Nacho, was on hand the entire evening ensuring our glasses were always topped up and dishes came out regularly.
In summary, if you haven´t already guessed it, this is an amazing restaurant. We are convinced the few uncomplimentary Trip Advisor reviews come from rival Marbella restaurants!! Ignore them, as this place is superb, combining the best Thai, Chinese and Japanese influences into one delectable menu.
