Get directions→Getting There
Tragaluz is on Calle de Gil de Santiváñez, a short street in Recoletos just off the Paseo de la Castellana, in the Salamanca district.
Nearby
Recoletos runs along the grand boulevards between Plaza de Cibeles and Puerta de Alcalá, where the buildings are stately and the pavements are wide. The eating leans formal and expense-account, with classic dining rooms sitting beside newer, sharper kitchens. It shades into Salamanca as you go east, and the prices follow.
