Cafe de Oriente

Basque Restaurant

Café de Oriente is located in El Madrid de los Austrias, right in front of the Royal Palace, and was constructed on the remains of San Gil’s Convent. The restaurant is considered a meeting point for business lunches, as well as those seeking a peaceful and charming spot for dining in front of one of the most privileged areas of Madrid. Opened in 1983, Chef Roberto del Moral serves traditional Spanish cuisine with a modern twist, in which the select produce presents a culinary experience for the senses. Dishes include Duck’s Liver Terrine, Sautéed Jumbo Shrimp with Homemade Pasta, Rockfish Confit in Almond Oil and Glazed Veal Sweetbreads with Veal Cheeks, as well as Apple Cake with Badiana Ice Cream. Additionally, a very well-stocked wine selection ensures that there is always the perfect choice available.
