With food delivery restaurants on the rise, the maxim has been rephrased: if the customer doesn’t go to the restaurant, the restaurant goes to the customer. Under this dogma, many of the most interesting cuisines of Madrid’s gastronomic scene are being reinterpreted. Delivery has emerged as a (more than worthy) alternative to table service.
1. Kyoshi
Kyoshi is the creation of chef Ricardo Sanz, the leading exponent of Japanese haute cuisine in our country and a pioneer in his culinary proposal. And you can order at home to this restaurant, located in the central Doubletree by Hilton Hotel in Madrid, thanks to Glovo.
Among the nigiri festival, the kimuchi salmon and lime Kyoshi and the butterfish Kyoshi nigiri with truffle and spring onion stand out.
📱 How: through Glovo.
2. Hong Kong 70
At Hong Kong 70 they focus on the specific cuisine of the city after which the restaurant is named and which is one of the strongholds of the city asia’s gastronomic. One of its specialties is duck in almost all its forms: roasted, fried or shredded in its dim sum. The latter are homemade with interesting fillings such as crab siu mai with shrimp and fish roe.

3. Pizzi & Dixie
Pizzi & Dixie has earned the epithet of vegan restaurant in Malasaña par excellence. After several years offering a quality product, being one of the first restaurants in Madrid to bet on the Beyond Burger and conquering carnivorous stomachs , Pizzi & Dixie and its chef Nacho Sanchez offer a home service that is at the height of its on-site service.
📱 How: through La Pájara.
4. Mama Uma
Mama Uma is a korean restaurant which is located in the Barceló market and specializes in bibimbap – the typical rice bowl with vegetables and fried chicken – and the homemade mandu dumplings they serve filled with kimchi, which they also make themselves. Being a small restaurant with only eight seats, it is sometimes difficult to get a seat, but you can order from their website.
📱 How: through its website.
5. Commercial Coffee
If you want to try some classic Spanish cuisine, but with a twist (like arroz a banda with boneless duck, their patatas bravas with madroño sauce or their albondigas al Pedro Ximenez) you don’t need to go to the centenary Commercial Coffee, you can drink it on your couch at home.
📱 How: through its web.
6. Yokaloka
The markets of Madrid are some of the best urban spaces in the city: tradition, avant-garde, top quality products and, in some cases, somewhat risky gastronomic bets. Yokaloka could qualify for this group. It is located in the Antón MartÃn Market and offers Japanese food (much more than sushi). The problem, however, is that its distribution area is limited.
📱 How: through its web.
7. Nugu Burger
Nugu Burger has its premises on Covarrubias Street, but its location is only important to know if your home is within its radius of action: this unusual hamburger restaurant only operates at home.
Nugu’s product, by the way, is excellent. Man does not live by concept alone and that is why the meat comes from organic farms in Extremadura and Castilla. In their menu they have seven hamburgers and the price of each one ranges between nine and fifteen euros.
📱 How: in your web.
8. Mawey
If there is a solution in the form of a return to the origins and experimentation with criterion, it is the one proposed by Mawey Taco Bar. And if there is one food whose taste has been distorted in translation (if one can speak of translating food), it is burritos. One of the best taquerias in Madrid sends you home one of the best burritos (if not the best) we’ve tasted here. Be it the cochinita pibil with Oaxaca cheese or the pulled pork with bourbon barbecue sauce. A scandal.
📱 How: through its web.
9. Juancho’s BBQ
Among the pioneers in the hospitality industry of the new normality stands out Juancho’s BBQ, home to one of the best hamburgers in Spain. We neither exaggerate nor are we governed by sympathy for Juancho and his meat prodigies: his Juancheesburger holds this title since winning the national championship. Their burgers can be ordered to be delivered to your door or picked up at the store.
📱 How: through Glovo.
10. Napoli Gang
Napoli Gang has a pizza dough designed for delivery. This pizzeria of the Big Mamma group, it could be said, does not have a kitchen, but an R&D department. As a result of the work between the kitchens in England, France and Spain – the three countries in which Big Mamma has restaurants – they come up with products that ensure that when the pizza reaches you it is still crunchy, and not with the texture of chewing gum.
📱 How: through Uber Eats.
11. Dani House
Casa Dani has the popular recognition of having the best potato omelette in Madrid, in what is also known as “the best tortilla de patatas in Madrid” experts agree and has been recognized as one of the best pubs in Europe in 2020 and the best in Spain in 2019. And luckily they now deliver the tortillas to your home.
📱 How: through Uber Eats
If there is one thing that is clear today, and after a pandemic, is that to eat well you no longer need to leave the house or cook, restaurants that offer food delivery have only improved in recent years.
