If you’re looking for a fine dining experience which also comes with an element of fun, this pleasant and modern bistro-style eatery is able to meet both requirements in a perfectly balanced manner. The first thing to mention is that Úbeda-born chef David Olivas has always been a free spirit when it comes to creating dishes for his guests, a fact clearly evident in his creative-contemporary cooking that showcases his technical ability and personality through the use of the best locally sourced ingredients – the cornerstone of his cuisine is to bring time-honoured flavours into the present day. Options on the à la carte are divided into two sections: “Our Classics”, featuring Back!’s signature dishes; and “What is changing...”, ably supported by the Entorno tasting menu. We particularly enjoyed the tuna ventresca, “porra antequerana” with iced red pepper and gazpacho water, as well the fried pigeon breast in a bread crust.
