Mítiko
Mítiko
Mítiko is a Nikkei restaurant on Calle de Sor Ángela de la Cruz, near the Bernabéu, owned by Lulú Zheng and Víctor Chen, the partners behind Le Chinois. It began as a Japanese restaurant and in 2024 switched to Nikkei under executive chef Jorge Rodríguez, who grew up farming potatoes and ají in the Peruvian Andes. The carta runs from classic corvina ceviche and hamachi tiradito to a cevichero tartar of Balfegó toro, anticucho skewers and a smoked picaña maki, and there's a €16.90 weekday lunch.

Delicioso tartar de salmón encapsulado en un maki y coronado con emulsión de rocoto y saiko miso de ají amarillo.
La clásica zamburiña en versión Mítiko. La leche de tigre ají amarillo y la mantequilla de miso realzan el sabor marino de este gran producto.
Una salsa acevichada y aguacate fresco acompañan a la pesca del día en este maki cevichero.
Wanton relleno de cerdo, pico de gallo y salsa oriental. Todo ello coronado por huevo frito y tierra de maíz chulpi.
Así es como un verdadero chef de cocina nikkei le rinde homenaje al clásico ceviche.
La mesa a tu gusto. Tan variada como tú la quieras, pero siempre auténtica. Esto es Mítiko.
Background
About Mítiko
The Story
Mítiko belongs to Lulú Zheng and Víctor Chen, whose Madrid restaurants include Le Chinois and Preciados 33. It started out as a Japanese restaurant; in 2024 the partners changed course and brought in Jorge Rodríguez to reinvent it as Nikkei. Rodríguez, born in Cajabamba in 1988, grew up on a farm in the northern Peruvian Andes and was cooking for his family by 12. He learned in Lima alongside an uncle who had cooked in hotels, worked for chains including Hilton and Accor, moved to Spain in 2017, cooked at Tiradito in Conde Duque, and in 2022 founded Latigazo, a dinner show in Chueca, where Zheng first ate his food.
The Cuisine
Nikkei: traditional Japanese technique with Peruvian ingredients, from ceviches and tiraditos to makis, nigiri, robata skewers and wok dishes.
The Carta
To start: zamburiñas with ají amarillo leche de tigre and miso butter (€12.50 for two), the cevichero, a tartar of Balfegó toro over sushi rice with yuzu gel (€27), tempura tiger prawns, a steak tartare of aged beef, anticucho beef and prawn skewers, shrimp gyozas in chupe sauce and siu mai. The ceviches are €26–27: classic corvina with ají charapita and sweet potato, the Mítiko with prawn and squid, and a kato with tempura squid. Tiraditos include the kemuri of hamachi with truffle and miso, the nipón of sea bass with purple corn and kimchi, and an O-toro of Balfegó belly. The makis, €21 each, include the smoked maki of aged picaña with anticuchera sauce, a favourite of regulars, the cevichero and a saiko miso salmon tartar.
Mi Lunch Ejecutivo
Monday to Friday from 13:00 to 16:00 (not holidays), the executive lunch is €16.90 with a drink: a starter such as nikkei nigiri, chicken anticucho, siu mai or santoichi pork belly, then a main such as crab maki, fried rice with crispy pork belly, chifa yakisoba with prawns or a vegetarian rice, and cheesecake, ice cream or coffee. Some dishes carry a small supplement, such as the classic ceviche (+€5).

Get directions→Getting There
On Calle Sor Angela de la Cruz in the Castillejos area of Madrid's Tetuan district, near the Santiago Bernabeu.
Nearby
Castillejos is northern, plain and residential, and the restaurants are the reason to be there rather than the scenery. The cooking is honest and regional, at prices that would be higher further south. Estadio Santiago Bernabéu and Cuatro Torres Business Area loom over the whole area.
