La Alcarria Food Guide: Best Restaurants in La Alcarria

1. La Chelinda Alcalá de Henares

TheForkUserWe had a great time! The house nachos were amazing, way better than expected and the waitress went above and beyond for our group. Despite being the only staff serving tables and working the bar, she had our food and drinks super fast and was attentive and just a total professional. Our only complaint is the burritos were on the small side and not nearly as full as normal Mexican burritos should be. My advice would be to skip the burritos altogether cuz everything else, quesadillas etc was a good amount and tasted incredible! Definitely will return!

TheForkUserFood was good and nicely presented. Service was fast and attentive at least in the early night. They handled well all the orders, even if we were a big group of 16 people.Minus points for not being able to share the bill for more than 2 credit cards (we were 12 households from 8 different countries, so we had to do the money laundering after, that should be part of the restaurant’s good service)

3. Asador Nuevo Porche

£34Barbeque

TheForkUserWe had an outstanding meal after getting stuck overnight in a Madrid airport hotel. Found this gem of a restaurant online and the service from Valeria was outstanding, very friendly, spoke great English and explained everything to us. The owner Mr Cayyetano was a gregarious host who spoke to us about the wine we ordered and brought us better wine glasses. When we were done he offered a free apperatif of McCallen Scoth and a Cava for my wife.The pate and gazpacho were top notch and the Spanish pork and Hake fish dinners we had were superb.This is an outstanding restaurant, when in Madrid don’t miss it. It is worth a taxi ride from downtown to dine in this neighborhood establishment!

TheForkUserEverything was great, buffet for €7 with a 50% discount!! The only thing was that the guy at the door thought he only had to apply the 50% to one of the 2 people in the reservation. Finally he realized that no, the 50% was for the entire reservation. The food tasted good, some of it a bit dry but most of it was good.

5. La Paella de Mou

TheForkUserWe were so impressed by this little restaurant! We could not have done better finding a place for lunch! The service was one of the best we had during our trip! Not only the waitress was nice, informative and professional, the cook came out to see if we were satisfied with the food. We wanted a paella and we had a “superb” paella! Not only that, it was included in the menu of the day! We had an appetizers, a started, the paella, bread with alioli, and… a tray with four different kind of desserts! 39.00 euros por two people. What a deal!

TheForkUserWho would think you could find such a great restaurant close to an airport? We had done the tapas thing for two weeks, so we were keen to have a different cuisine. Chitoro is a funky place with a superb menu. Highly, highly recommend!

TheForkUserNo doubt it has one of the best tuna tataki in Madrid. Everything from the menu is well prepared and nicely served.
