3 Best Restaurants in Chamartin, Madrid

Settle into an unhurried feast at Sacha, a cozy bistro beloved by local food writers that boasts soul-satisfying food and hand-selected wines—often presented by chef Sacha himself, who's quite the storyteller. The cuisine is regional Spanish—think butifarra sausages with sautéed mushrooms or razor clams with black garlic emulsion—with just enough imagination to make you wonder why the restaurant isn't better known.

Owner Norberto Jorge, a quirky, jolly gent, offers a produce-centric menu with painstakingly selected wines to match at this snug book-lined restaurant. Rice dishes are the house specialty, and they're cooked in extra-flat paella pans specially manufactured for the restaurant.

When you ask a Madrileño about a remarkable food experience—something that stirs the senses beyond feeding one's appetite—DiverXO is the first name you'll hear. The take-no-prisoners tasting menu incorporates a dizzying array of international ingredients and chemical processes. Getting a table at this foodie shrine is akin to scoring a ticket for the Super Bowl, stratospheric prices included, so plan ahead—there's an online reservation system that requires that you to pay in full in advance. At the time of writing, it was reported that in 2025 the restaurant would change locations to La Finca, a luxury residential complex on the outskirts of town; check the website for details.
