Background

About El Jardín Secreto

The Story

El Jardín Secreto is a neighbourhood favourite out in Moratalaz, well east of the centre, popular with the neighbourhood. The Guía Repsol gave it a Solete in its 2022 round of neighbourhood bars, naming it one of the most frequented in the district.

The Cuisine

Spanish bar and restaurant cooking, built around a daily set lunch, which is the Guía Repsol's recommendation, and a carta of carefully made tapas. There are vegetarian options and cocktails.

Good to Know

Go at lunchtime for the menú del día, the dish the Guía Repsol recommends above all, or come on a Friday evening, the one night it stays open late. There's free parking outside, a wheelchair-accessible restroom and parking, and no website, so call ahead to book.
