The story
Las Tortillas de Gabino is a Madrid restaurant that puts the Spanish tortilla at the heart of its menu. Located on Calle Rafael Calvo in the Chamberí district, the space is open for lunch and dinner from Monday to Saturday, with a terrace for outdoor seating and air conditioning inside. The restaurant is part of the Familia La Ancha group, which also handles events and private gatherings.
The restaurant earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2026, an award that recognises good-quality, good-value cooking. For a restaurant built around a single, humble dish, this recognition underscores the skill and care that goes into every tortilla. The Bib Gourmand is given to spots where you can eat well without a splurge, and Las Tortillas de Gabino fits that description perfectly.
The menu focuses on variations of the classic Spanish tortilla – a thick, round omelette of eggs and potatoes, often with added ingredients like onion, chorizo, or peppers. The cooking is straightforward and honest, letting the quality of the ingredients shine. The restaurant’s website and social media hint at a lively, approachable atmosphere, though the exact dishes and their prices are not detailed online. For a full look at the current offerings, diners are encouraged to visit the restaurant or check its Instagram feed.
