WELCOME TO CÚRATE

Cúrate is a guided journey into the culinary treasure troves of Spain. Our collection of restaurants, online marketplace, wine club, and culinary journeys create a portal to Spanish culture.

Katie Button and Felix Meana built Cúrate on its Spanish meaning –“heal yourself.” They believe that discovering new flavors can unite people in a delicious moment of wonder and joy that cures the soul.

We invite you to do as the Spanish do and take the time to savor these moments – whether you’re visiting our nationally acclaimed flagship restaurant, Cúrate Bar de Tapas; enjoying a private event in our Cúrate Private Wine Cellar or Cúrate Event Space; embarking on a Mediterranean food and wine adventure with Cúrate Trips; or recreating the Cúrate experience anywhere you please by joining the Cúrate Wine Club or snagging some of our go-to Spanish bites from our online gourmet marketplace, Cúrate at Home.

galician wine dinner with haw river wine man

Join us for a fun-filled evening celebrating Galicia’s Bodega Dominio do Bibei from Ribeira Sacra, hosted in partnership with our friend Mike Tiano of Haw River Wine Merchant!

This intimate and informative wine dinner is guaranteed to be a conversation starter. Mike and Cúrate Wine Director Jessica Salyer have selected a collection of show-stopping wines from this high-altitude, terraced region to serve alongside a five-course Galician tasting menu. 

Domino bo Bibei proprietor Javier Domínguez and his team make expressive reds from Mencía, Mouratón, and Brancellao, and striking whites from their highest plots. The wines are made with low intervention, moved by gravity, and aged in neutral wooden vessels to preserve a true sense of place that you can taste.

Jessica and Mike will guide you through your dinner, offering insights and storytelling behind each pairing. Tickets are limited, so reserve your seat today!
