Great place for GF dining in Madrid!
I visited Celicioso during a trip to Madrid- I was staying near the one on O’Donnell but also visited the one in Gran Via.
This is a great venue for celiacs and/or someone requiring a low GF diet.
I went as 1 of 3 people; I try to eat a low GF diet but have eaten gluten (so can tell the difference) and the I other 2 people eat gluten. We were all impressed with our food. When we went in we were worried about what food was available as the fridge was pretty empty (about 3pm) but we ordered from the menu.
As a group we tried the pancakes, poached eggs with salmon and chicken sandwich. The only criticism was the bread was a bit dry, it would benefit from a spread that would make it moist.
The pancakes were lovely- I had them with maple syrup which gave it flavour. I enjoy pancakes and have to say these fell into my top 10. I would recommend getting some fruit with it though, to add a different texture. The other two dishes were cooked well.
Both stores in O’Donnell and Gran Via have large dining spaces to eat in, or if you want you can take away. In O’Donnell there is a large dining space downstairs. The service was good and the food came relatively quickly.
For cakes we tried the lemon pie and the vegan black velvet cake slice. They were both well made- they pastry had a crumble and they both had good flavour.
I consider pricing is reasonable- approx 14 euros each for a meal and drink.
This is truly one of the nicest places I have eaten that offers a GF menu. I only wish there was one in England! I will definitely recommend visiting
