Restaurante Desde 1911

For a restaurant boasting a Michelin star and a €265 set menu (their least expensive is €180), the experience was shockingly uninspired. The ever-changing menu—based on fish from their own market—should be a chef’s playground, yet each dish felt basic, lacking the creativity or finesse you’d expect at this level. Portions were smaller than usual, supposedly to make room for cheese and petit fours. But for the price, I came for culinary brilliance—not a trip to a cheese shop. Desserts were no redemption either; my filloa was cold and rubbery, and the rest just forgettable. I always say these type of restaurants should offer an experience that is hard to re create at home, but truly here, I felt half of the food (grilled fish, grilled lobster, Caesar salad, filloa, brioche crab sandwich), anyone with minimal culinary skills can make it at home. Not worth the hype, the price, or the wait.

I would give it 4 stars. Why? If you go to places like Gueyu Mar in Asturias o a Elkano en Getataria, you get a higher quality without the high prices, but …. It’s Madrid, I understand. Since 1911 is a product restaurant that’s trying to be an elevated restaurant, I ‘d recommend others like Smoked Room in Madrid, Campero in Barbate or Pepe Vieira in Galicia…if you want a more sophisticated cuisine, before Dessert 1911. Again, it’s not a bad place, it’s a great meal, but you don’t get good value here, it’s just a good meal, not a superb one like in afore mentioned places.

Everything was perfect, a spectacular place. I consider it one of the best I've been to for its service, atmosphere, and the quality of the food. We were a group of six and ordered the menu with four starters and the main course. In my case, we ordered scallops, lobster salpicón, boletus mushrooms with egg yolk, tripe stew with cod, a sea bass dish, and dessert with a cheese board and a dessert. Everything was delicious, the perfect amount, and spectacular flavor. Of course, the atmosphere and service were excellent. Therefore, I consider it an experience worth enjoying for the quality of the food. Although they often change the menu depending on product availability, I'm sure the quality will be just as good any day.

Excellent food, very good service and atmosphere! Looking forward to being back soon.

My favorite restaurante in Madrid, a Michelin-starred restaurant with a Sol rating. The ambiance, decor, and service were exceptional. They made my birthday extra special by preparing a beautiful cake. Highlights from the menu include the Ecugis Smoked Salmon, Viarigan Anchovy in Tempura, Classic Seafood Salad, Grilled Palamos Red Prawn, and the Baby White Bean Stew with Squid. Each dish was crafted with care, showcasing the freshest ingredients and expert preparation. The restaurant offers a great selection of cheeses and desserts included in all menus, providing plenty of options to satisfy any palate. They also have a beautiful terrace.
