All 14 Beef Dishes

Cocido Madrileño (Madrid Stew)

El Landó

La Latina·$$$

€22.00

Spain's most famous stew—beef, chicken, sausage, and chickpeas slow-cooked for hours.

Tip: Order the cocido on a cold day — it's a full meal that takes 45+ minutes to serve but is worth the wait.

Sirloin Steak Tartare

Lhardy

Centro·$$$

€33.00

100% ox sirloin prepared raw, with capers and mustard on the side.

Tip: Ask for a very lean cut — the tartare is only as good as the beef. Lhardy sources high quality.

Cocido Madrileño

Casa Lucio

La Latina·$$

€16.00

Madrid-style chickpea stew with beef, chicken, and sausage.

Tip: This is the classic comfort order when you want something warming and traditional — less famous than the huevos rotos but equally solid.

Beef Cheeks with Laurel

Tripea

Chamberí·$$

€16.00

Braised beef cheeks stewed until tender in a bay leaf-infused broth.

Tip: This is the warm course — it lands mid-menu to reset your palate before dessert.

Basque Txuleta (Grilled Beef Chop)

Corral de la Morería

La Latina·$$$

€48.00

Thick-cut beef steak grilled simply with salt and Basque tradition.

Tip: Share the txuleta — it's meant for two. Ask for it medium-rare unless you prefer otherwise. The flavour is pure beef, so temperature matters.

Cocido Madrileño

La Posada de la Villa

La Latina·$$$

€28.00

Madrid stew with beef, chickpeas, and vegetables, requires advance order.

Tip: Call ahead to order this — it requires 24 hours advance notice. The restaurant needs to prepare it properly.

Hand-chopped raw beef with capers, onion, anchovies, and a raw egg yolk to finish.

Tip: This is the dish that earned La Tasquita national recognition. Order it first — it's non-negotiable.

Steak Tartare

Sacha

Chamartín·$$$

€32.00

Minced raw beef with capers, anchovies, Worcestershire, and egg yolk on the side.

Cocido Madrileño

Malacatín

La Latina·$$

€19.50

Madrid's iconic stew of chickpeas, beef, and vegetables served in three courses.

Tip: This is a lunch-only dish — the restaurant serves only lunch except Wednesdays-Saturdays when dinner is available. Book at least a day ahead.

Picaña (Brazilian Sirloin)

Amazónico

Salamanca·$$$

€42.00

Thick-cut Brazilian grass-fed sirloin, grilled to medium-rare, served with chimichurri and cassava fries.

Beef Tenderloin with Port Sauce

Taberna del Alabardero

Austrias·$$$

€35.00

Spanish beef tenderloin with a reduction of vintage port, mushrooms, and bone marrow.

Tip: Request it medium-rare — it arrives perfectly pink and tender. Ask the waiter to bring the sauce on the side so you can control the coating.

Beef with Bone Marrow

Sacha

Chamartín·$$$

€36.00

Seasonal beef dish served with a bone marrow-enriched jus and toasted bone marrow on bread.

Tip: A legendary dish in Madrid — if you're celebrating a special occasion and can get a reservation, order this.

Grilled National Sirloin

Tatel Madrid

Salamanca·$$$

€38.00

Spanish grass-fed beef sirloin, grilled to medium-rare, served with chimichurri and fried potatoes.

Tip: Ask for it medium-rare — the kitchen respects the request and the result shows why aged Spanish beef is worth the price.

Beef Sirloin Meatballs

La Tasquita de Enfrente

Malasaña·$$

€18.00

Lean beef sirloin formed into tender meatballs, served in a light sauce with grilled onion.

Tip: Order these alongside the tartare if you want both raw and cooked beef — they balance each other well.
