Experience a culinary revival at Gibraltar Gems, where the distillery ambiance is complemented by an array of exceptional dishes crafted by Chef Jose Luis. His unique fusion of Mediterranean and Latin flavors creates an unexpected harmony on your plate. The menu is a treasure trove of delights, ranging from tantalizing tapas and heartwarming vegan soups to global curries and succulent salmon.
Committed to quality and community, Chef Jose Luis sources his meats from Markegard Farms, known for their exceptional grass-fed beef and other meats. Plus, with an extensive vegetarian selection, everyone feels welcome at our table!
Chef Jose Luis’s lifelong love affair with gardening and cooking has taken him across the Continental US and beyond, alongside his beloved wife, Liam. His culinary journey in Half Moon Bay began with the opening of Café Gibraltar, a quaint eatery by the coast that quickly became a local sensation. Known for his exquisite tasting menus and skillful seasoning, Chef Jose Luis also won hearts with his warm hospitality.
After a hiatus to focus on family, Chef Jose Luis is back, dazzling palates at our outdoor lounge in Half Moon Bay. His world fusion style cooking is a storm of flavors, often featuring garnishes plucked straight from our front garden. Join us at Gibraltar Gems for an unforgettable Coastside dining experience that blends global culinary art with local charm.
