Highlighting spots we've seen and been this year so far.

Malasaña Miscellany

La Prodiga


Read our review of La Prodiga in April.

What's the story?
A touch of Argentina. Short but consistent menú. More Argentinian drinks would be great. Only one dessert on offer, but chocolate lovers will be more than happy
Try?
Best empanadas in the area. Cheese and Spinach is brilliant.
Price?
€20 or so.

FYI: El Teneder discount may be on offer. Try the Matambre if it's on the specials board.

La Cabreira


Read our review of La Cabreira in March

What's the story?
Biggest range of classic spanish dishes around Plaza Dos De Mayo, with a terrace that fills up fast. Daily seafood specials and salmorejo are top-notch.
Try?
Patatas a la Cabreira. Utterly delicious and V-friendly.
Price?
A decent blow out for under €20.

FYI: Service can be a bit variable at times. Get there before 1.30 on sunny day days for better chance of a table.

El Rincón


Read our review of El Rincón from May.

What's the story?
Shorter food list than La Cab, but huge portions. Daily menú with 15-20 dishes is the whole story.
Try?
Goat's cheese salad passes the h:m expectation test. We recommended it. The testee was delighted. And full.
Price?

Less than €15 for a complete lunch, excl. coffee.

FYI: A very decent Panna Cotta comes with a quality wobble.
