El Invernadero Rodrigo de la Calle

El Invernadero was one of the best dining experiences of my entire trip! The tasting menu was thoughtful and creative, the ambiance was warm and inviting, and the staff were absolutely incredible—funny, knowledgeable, and attentive. I loved that they explained each course in detail and made me feel welcomed as a solo diner. The gift at the end (a beautiful clay cup and tote bag) was such a classy touch and made the evening feel special. I honestly loved almost every single dish—there were about 20–21 tastings total! If I had to choose: the mushroom-forward courses, the fresh herb consommé, and the creative takes on traditional Spanish flavors really stood out. The only dish I didn’t fully enjoy was one with a strong “taste of the sea” — I think it had nori or seaweed in it — but even that was executed beautifully.

El Invernadero offered one of the best dining experience I’ve had to date. The service was exceptional, with the staff enthusiastically explaining each dish and ensuring we had an unforgettable evening. One of the highlights was sitting at the chef’s table, where we could watch each dish come to life. The house wines were exceptional, especially the unique beetroot pairing. Each course was a delightful, orchestrated discovery. There was nothing I could think of to improve – every detail felt perfectly curated. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable and refined culinary journey.

Want a great place that's romantic with amazing food and wine pairings? Look no further as this is the spot for you. The food was simply amazing. Excellent customer service. The server explained every single course item along with the proper wine pairing included. The chef made an amazing presentation of each course delicacy. So quiet and romantic. I loved sharing this wonderful experience with my fiancee and soulmate. Can't wait to come here again in the future with her for a surprise anniversary in the future. Thanks for amazing food, delightful wine and fond memories. Definitely a must for anyone who is a true foodie or enjoys grand food experiences.

We really loved their focus on vegetables - that’s so rare in Spanish fine dining, some dishes were really good (beetroot, onion, radish…), some good. Overall the food was super tasty, there was a lot of umami, great play with fermentation and acidity. The desserts were underwhelming though. We loved the pairing with kombucha and water kefir as well. Much more interesting than standard wines. The service was not top notch, not always coordinated and sometimes missing ab explanation to a dish but really friendly and nice. The ambiance was casual and nice but the air conditioning is not working well and there were moments with intense kitchen smoke in the serving room. And to finish, here‘s the HUGE but: We asked multiple times for getting at least a moment to finish our small plates before the next courses (sometimes the next 2-3 little courses) were served. It wasn’t possible to eat at a normal speed, there was clearly time pressure with the second shift of reservations coming in later, and it was said openly. A normal seating time in Michelin restaurants for dinner service tasting menus is 3-4 hours, we were ready for a shorter experience but we were served all courses within less than 80 minutes, then the bill was brought to the table without asking. We left the restaurant after approx 90 minutes with a bill of 500€. However good the food is, the overall experience was not worth coming back. We want to leave relaxed, fulfilled and joyful when going out for dinner, not hurried up.

Incredible Michelin star veggie experience. The combination of probiotic drinks and food is exceptional

Six months ago we celebrated our anniversary at Massimo Bottura’s Osteria Francescana. Tonight we came to l’invernadero and we can safely say that it was as spectacular, and possibly even more creative and innovative! The service is the pinnacle of the experience: our hostess spoke several Languages and explained every dish with competence and wits, we absolutely loved her! Every course of the vegetarian menu is a little jewel, assembled with precision and designed to take your taste buds and your eyes on a journey that is high end, and yet not pretentious. I would love to say that there’s a highlight, but honestly there isn’t: every dish was unique and a mouthful of perfection. The restaurant is as expensive as a Michelin starred restaurant should be, but this is the experience of a lifetime!

Wow! What an experience! Price is great all the dishes were special and flavorful. I didn’t miss any meat. Vegetables are life! We bought two bottles of the kombucha and hibiscus wine to go! Lovely place to celebrate with friends or a loved one. They even gave us mug cups for a gift and the special menu. The chef was awesome and Really lovely atmosphere. If you’re in Madrid don’t miss out on this place. The price is worth it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Amazing, the best vegan Michelin dinner that I have had so far.
