Se comen en dos bocados y siempre acaba cayendo otra ronda. 🌊 Zamburiñas abiertas en su concha, pasadas por la plancha con su picadillo de verdura y un hilo de aceite. Dulces, finas, con ese punto exacto en el que la vieira sigue jugosa y el borde ya está dorado. Para empezar la cena, para compart

Background
About La Taberna de Peñalver
The Story
La Taberna de Peñalver is the original of what is now a small group: after this tavern on Calle del Conde de Peñalver, in the Salamanca district, it opened La Taberna de Peñalver Centro on Calle de la Cava Baja in La Latina in June 2024 and later a third address by Callao, on Calle del Postigo de San Martín. The approach is craft cooking: home-style dishes from fresh produce brought straight from the sea and the market garden, with Alicante rices as the speciality.
The Cuisine
By its own account, Mediterranean home cooking built on fresh produce and daily-made tapas, with Alicante-style rices as the house specialty.
Rices and the Carta
The rices and fideuás from Alicante (minimum two, priced per person) are the heart of it, from about €21 for arroz de la huerta to €31 for one with aged beef loin, the arroz del señoret among the most ordered. Around them, the carta is grouped by origin: 'De Alicante', 'De aquí' (home-style local dishes), 'De allá' (international plates made with local produce), spoon dishes for winter, vegetables 'from garden to plate', seafood such as zamburiñas and Cantabrian anchovies, sharing plates and meats. Desserts include a homemade cheesecake many customers rate highly and gluten-free artisan ice creams.
Wine and the Terrace
The wine list runs past a hundred labels from around the world, and the staff will suggest a match for your rice. The big terrace is the draw in good weather, and dogs are welcome there. It opens every day from noon to midnight, and there are menus for groups and events.
