Classic Madrid restaurants include Casa Botin, hailed by Hemingway as the best restaurant in the world, and which is certainly one of the oldest, having been operating from the same location since at least the early 1700s. Other local favorites include Caso Paco for steaks, Casa Mingo for roasted chicken with Asturian cider, and Champagnerie Gala for paella. Click here for a list of our favorites.
