The story
In the historic town of San Lorenzo de El Escorial, just a short drive from Madrid, Montia has earned a Michelin star for its focused Modern Cuisine. The restaurant occupies a calm, air-conditioned space on Juan de Austria street, offering a setting that lets the cooking speak for itself.
The kitchen works with clean techniques and seasonal produce, presenting dishes that balance precision with a sense of place. While specific menu details are kept close, the Michelin recognition signals a consistent, high-quality experience built on thoughtful sourcing and execution.
Montia is a destination for those seeking contemporary Spanish cooking in a town better known for its royal monastery than its dining scene. The restaurant’s understated atmosphere and commitment to modern flavours make it a noteworthy stop for anyone exploring the culinary landscape west of the capital.
