## Introduction

Flavia has cooked Amalfi-inspired Italian food in Barrio de Salamanca for more than a decade, and its entire menu, pizza and pasta included, is gluten-free, an idea the family traces to the founder's mother's celiac diagnosis. A few streets over in Malasaña, Okashi bills itself as the first certified fully gluten-free and lactose-free Japanese restaurant in the city. Neither is the norm. Most of the restaurants on this list aren't fully gluten-free kitchens; they mark specific dishes as coeliac-safe on the carta, or say the kitchen can adapt if you flag it when booking. This guide keeps those categories separate rather than lumping every restaurant that has ever served a gluten-free dish into one list.

## Key picks at a glance

- **Best fully gluten-free menu** — [Flavia Serrano](https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/flavia): an entire Italian carta, pizza and pasta included, cooked gluten-free since the founder's mother was diagnosed celiac.
- **Best certified gluten-free specialist** — [Okashi Malasaña](https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/okashi-malasana): bills itself as a fully gluten- and lactose-free Japanese kitchen, holding a Repsol Solete.
- **Best Michelin-starred option for celiac diners** — [El Invernadero](https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/el-invernadero): the Vegetalia tasting menu caters for celiac diners when flagged at booking, one Michelin star.
- **Best dedicated coeliac tasting menu** — [La Huerta de Tudela](https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/la-huerta-de-tudela): a Menú Especial para Vegetarianos, Veganos y Celíacos runs alongside the regular Navarra-style carta.
- **Best taberna with a near-total gluten-free menu** — [Triana](https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/triana): an Andalusian taberna near Retiro that remade its breads and fried dishes for a gluten-free certification.
- **Best coeliac-friendly sushi counter** — [Washoku](https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/washoku): a Mercado de Vallehermoso stall using 100% rice vinegar and gluten-free tamari on request.

## A guide to Gluten-Free Dining in Madrid

### What does 'gluten-free' mean on a Spanish menu?

'Sin gluten' is the Spanish term for gluten-free. Spanish kitchens that cater seriously to coeliacs typically use corn, chickpea, rice or tapioca flour in place of wheat for bread, batters and pasta, and some run a separate fryer or oven to reduce cross-contamination. Not every restaurant that offers a gluten-free dish states whether it has taken that extra step, so it's always worth asking directly.

### Fully gluten-free versus gluten-free options, and why the difference matters

A restaurant that is fully gluten-free cooks its entire menu without wheat, barley or rye, which is the safest option for coeliac diners. A restaurant with 'gluten-free options' may serve wheat elsewhere in the same kitchen, which raises the risk of cross-contamination even on a dish that's naturally gluten-free. Both categories are useful, but they aren't the same thing, and this guide tries not to blur them.

### What is a dedicated coeliac or gluten-free menu?

Some restaurants publish a separate menu specifically for coeliac or gluten-free diners, distinct from their regular carta, sometimes as its own PDF or a named tasting menu. That's a stronger signal than a handful of dishes marked gluten-free on the main carta, since it usually means the kitchen has thought through the whole meal rather than one substitution.

### Why some Michelin-listed restaurants handle coeliac diners at the booking stage

Tasting-menu restaurants that serve a fixed or shared format, where the whole table eats the same courses, generally need dietary restrictions flagged in advance rather than adjusted table-side. That's standard practice across fine dining, gluten-free or not, and it's the reason several higher-end entries on this list ask you to mention coeliac needs when you book, not when you arrive.

> "Some of these kitchens run entirely gluten-free; most mark specific dishes or adapt on request, so it's worth confirming either way before you sit down."

## How we built this list

We started from the Madrid restaurants we've profiled, filtering to ones whose own published information (carta, FAQs, or the restaurant's own site) states a real gluten-free provision, not just a passing mention. We checked every claim against each venue's own wording rather than paraphrasing it into something stronger, and we left out a restaurant, RavioXO, whose own information says directly that it has no coeliac menu. We also read the specialist gluten-free travel and coeliac directories that cover Madrid, including How to Coeliac, Wheatless Wanderlust and celicidad.net. Several of the fully gluten-free specialists those sites cite repeatedly, including Okashi's Lavapiés sibling, LaLina, Grosso Napoletano's gluten-free locations, As de Bastos, Artemisa and Waraku, don't have a Guidavera page yet, so we've left them off rather than write around a gap.

## The 14 best Gluten-Free Restaurants in Madrid

### 1. Flavia Serrano

*Whole Italian menu is gluten-free, pizza and pasta included*

- **Neighbourhood:** Recoletos
- **Address:** Calle de Gil de Santivañes, 2, 28001 Madrid, Spain
- **Price:** €€
- **Website:** https://www.flaviamadrid.com/
- **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/flavia

Flavia has cooked Amalfi-inspired Italian food in Barrio de Salamanca for more than ten years, and its entire menu is gluten-free. The kitchen traces the idea to the founder's mother, who was diagnosed with celiac disease and couldn't find an Italian restaurant with a full gluten-free carta, so celiac and gluten-intolerant diners can order across the whole menu rather than a handful of marked dishes. The carta runs from a Margherita pizza (€14) through Spaghetti Carbonara gli originali (€20) and Tagliatelle Wagyu alla bolognese (€26) to Tiramisù (€8) for dessert. The address sits in Recoletos, though the restaurant brands this location Flavia Serrano, after the nearby metro stop.

The room reads cheerful and welcoming, with a year-round terrace and heaters through winter, and it's listed in the Guía Repsol as Recomendado.

### 5. Maison Umami

Maison Umami is an Asian fine-dining restaurant on Avenida de Juan Antonio Samaranch, in the Valdefuentes area of Madrid's Hortaleza district, in the north of the city. It combines Chinese and Japanese cooking with a French, cosmopolitan touch, and the room is set up for groups, families and private events, with cocktails and a wine list alongside the menu.

- **Address:** Calle de Ponzano, 85 - 28003 Madrid, Spain

### 8. Washoku

*Coeliac-friendly sushi from a market stall counter*

- **Neighbourhood:** Arapiles
- **Address:** Calle Vallehermoso, 36, 28015, Madrid, Spain
- **Price:** €
- **Website:** https://washoku.es/
- **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/washoku

Washoku is a Japanese sushi counter run by its owner, Osamu Nakanishi, inside the Mercado de Vallehermoso, in the Arapiles part of Chamberí. Sushi is made to order, and the fish is frozen to -28°C under Spain's anisakis rules. The counter describes itself as coeliac-friendly: it uses 100% rice vinegar and offers gluten-free tamari on request for dipping. It's a market stall rather than a sit-down dining room, and it doubles as a small shop for Japanese pantry goods, so it's worth checking the market's own hours before a special trip.

### 9. Qüenco de Pepa

*Fried dishes made with corn or chickpea flour for coeliacs*

- **Neighbourhood:** Nueva España
- **Address:** C. Henri Dunant, 21-23, 28036 Madrid, Spain
- **Price:** €€€
- **Distinction:** Repsol 1 Sol
- **Website:** https://quencodepepa.com/
- **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/quenco-de-pepa

Qüenco de Pepa is chef Pepa Muñoz's Andalusian-inflected market restaurant on Calle Henri Dunant in Nueva España, holding one Sol in the Guía Repsol. Around 90% of the carta comes from Spanish producers, with vegetables grown in the restaurant's own huerta. The fried-dishes section of the menu notes that the kitchen keeps corn and chickpea flour on hand specifically so those dishes can be made for coeliacs. The room is classic in feel, there's a terrace, and it serves lunch and dinner Monday to Saturday, closed Sunday.

### 10. La Bien Aparecida

Chef José Manuel de Dios runs a carta of Cantabrian anchovies, Santander-style fried squid, hake in salsa verde and veal callos to a Liébana recipe. The carta itself marks which dishes are coeliac-safe and flags others that the kitchen can adapt on request. The room is elegant and quiet, easy to talk in, with a terrace out front, and it's open every day of the week.

### 11. La Maruca - Velázquez

*Carta flags coeliac-safe and adaptable Cantabrian dishes*

- **Neighbourhood:** Recoletos
- **Address:** Calle de Velázquez, 54, 28001 Madrid, Spain
- **Price:** €€€

Doors open from 8am on weekdays and 9:30am on weekends, even though the kitchen keeps to proper lunch and dinner sittings, and there's a terrace out front. The carta, published on the restaurant's own site, marks which dishes are coeliac-safe and flags others that can be adapted, and the Cañadío cheesecake is a fixture on it. Prices sit in the upper-middle range for the neighbourhood.

### 12. Pilar Akaneya

*Shared tasting format adapted for coeliacs if flagged early*

- **Neighbourhood:** Ríos Rosas
- **Address:** Calle Espronceda, 33, 28003 Madrid, Spain
- **Price:** €€€€
- **Distinction:** Michelin Selected · Repsol 1 Sol

- **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/pilar-akaneya

Pilar Akaneya is a Japanese sumibiyaki, charcoal-grill restaurant in Ríos Rosas, opened in 2020 by Barcelona restaurateurs Chiho Murata and Ignasi Elías and run by chef Pepe Fernández. It grills premium wagyū over Kishu Binchotan charcoal and is listed in the Michelin Guide with one Repsol Sol. There's no vegetarian, vegan or fish menu, but the kitchen can adapt its shared, multi-course format for coeliacs, diabetics and other allergies if you flag it when booking, since dishes go out to the whole table together rather than as individual plates.

### 13. Yerbabuena

*Fully vegetarian, with gluten-free options across the menu*

- **Neighbourhood:** Sol
- **Address:** Calle de Bordadores, 3, 28013 Madrid, Spain
- **Price:** €

- **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/yerbabuena

Yerbabuena has cooked meat-free food on Calle Bordadores, near Plaza Mayor in the Madrid de los Austrias quarter, since 2005, making it one of the longer-running vegetarian kitchens on this list. Everything is made in-house, from tapas, burgers and pizza to salads, pasta and rice, and the kitchen keeps vegan and gluten-free options running across that whole range rather than confined to one corner of the menu. The room is set up for groups and families, it's dog-friendly, and both takeaway and delivery are available.

### 14. Tropicalista

*Pao de queijo made with tapioca flour, naturally gluten-free*

- **Neighbourhood:** Universidad
- **Address:** Calle Desengaño, 18, 28004, Madrid, Spain
- **Price:** €€
- **Website:** https://tropicalista.es/
- **Full profile:** https://guidavera.com/spain/madrid/restaurants/tropicalista

Tropicalista cooks Brazilian food with a São Paulo accent on Calle Desengaño, in the Universidad barrio of Centro. The menu marks vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free dishes, and calls out its pão de queijo specifically as gluten-free, since it's made with tapioca flour and parmesan rather than wheat. Beyond that starter, the kitchen runs to coxinhas, kibes, risolis and tapiocas, plus burgers and Brazilian-style sandwiches like the X-Picanha, with rice, beans and farofa on the side. It's dog-friendly and set up for groups, and the Ayuntamiento licenses the address as a bar con cocina.

## The Gluten-Free Dining scene in Madrid

Madrid's gluten-free dining splits into two groups the way most of Spain does: a small number of kitchens that are certified or self-described as fully gluten-free, and a much larger group of ordinary restaurants that mark some dishes as coeliac-safe or say the kitchen can adapt if asked. The first group here spans an Italian trattoria, a Japanese kitchen, a gastrobar and an Andalusian taberna, which is closer to how celiac diners in Madrid actually eat than any single cuisine dominating the fully gluten-free space. The second, larger group includes a Michelin-starred vegetable restaurant, two Cantabrian-leaning dining rooms in Recoletos, a market sushi stall, and a scatter of casual, mid-priced spots that note gluten-free items on their own menus or sites.

## Know before you go

### 1. Confirm the current provision before you book

None of these venues have promised us a dedicated allergen-free kitchen unless we've said so directly. Call ahead or check the restaurant's own site for its current gluten-free provision, and ask about cross-contamination if that matters for your diagnosis.

### 2. Know which category you're booking into

Flavia, Okashi Malasaña and Triana run all or almost all of their menu gluten-free, and CIRKuK publishes a separate gluten-free carta. Most of the rest mark specific dishes or adapt on request, so ask which dishes apply before you order rather than assuming the whole carta is covered.

### 3. Flag it when you book, not when you arrive

At tasting-menu restaurants with a fixed or shared format, including El Invernadero and Pilar Akaneya, mention a coeliac restriction when you reserve so the kitchen can plan for it, rather than raising it at the table.

### 4. La Maruca marks its carta

La Maruca on Calle de Velázquez in Recoletos marks coeliac-safe and adaptable dishes on the carta published on its own site, so check which dishes apply before you order.
