Experience

Taberna Moderna Dining Experience

The mood runs casual and built for sharing, from a quick tapeo at the long bar to settling in with a group at the tables. There's a terrace for outdoor seating, and the fresh fish, fritura and shellfish come as raciones meant to be passed around, with cocktails alongside the seafood.

Getting There

It's on Calle Fernán González in the Ibiza barrio, part of Madrid's Retiro district.

Nearby

Ibiza is the residential edge of Parque del Buen Retiro, and it eats like a neighbourhood that does not need to impress anyone. The rooms are taverns, grills and seafood done properly, at prices that reflect regulars rather than visitors. Palacio de Cristal and the park are the reason to come early.
