La Despensa de Nantes

Nantes is, in many ways, a correct and coherent proposal: another contemporary take on the castizo restaurant, one that feels perfectly logical for its location and for the current Madrid dining landscape. The menu revisits familiar flavors with a modern touch, and while nothing truly misfires, it sometimes leans more on concept than on genuine culinary excitement. Where some doubts arise is in the balance between what is offered and the price point. The experience feels aligned with a certain idea of trendy neighborhood dining, but perhaps less so with the bill that arrives at the end of the meal. The clear standout is the cheesecake, a dessert that condenses the best of the house: well executed, indulgent without being cloying, and with a texture and flavor that stay with you after the last bite. It is, without doubt, the dish that most justifies the visit and hints at what Nantes could become if the rest of the menu reached the same level.

Excellent spot. The food is typical Spanish, done really well and delicious. You should definitely try some of the legumes dishes, like a beam stew with rabbit shoulder. They also do a lunch menu and I can't wait to come and try that.

We booked a table through the website. There was no "table inside" option, only on the "terrace". The terrace is located between two roads. For appetizer they brought pickled cherry tomatoes and carrots. Beef cheeks and pork were incredibly tasty

So glad we gave this spot a try 😇👌🏽. Decoration & ambiance is so lovely! Staff is friendly and the food was deelicious! We had made a reservation through Google and everything went very smoothly! I highly recommend the dishes we tried! The carrillera de ternera was sooo soft, it melts in your mouth! And the accompanying parsnips purée was a lovely touch! As for the secreto de iberico, we loved it and woud love to know the secret to the accompanying zucchini- sooo good! Oh and yes, try the cheesecake!! Creamy delight ✨👍🏽

We had a super tasty and well-priced dinner here and tried some traditional pig ears seen in the picture. A nice detail was that the tea we ordered was brewed in cute cast iron pots and had actual tea spices inside rather than a supermarket teabag.

💯 recommended ! Pick the Abanico iberico and the tarta de queso! Great ambiance great staff ! We love Nantes !

Food was good and the cheesecake was delicious! We ordered the menu de mediodía which was a little expensive for the quantity, but the quality made it worth it. The staff was very nice.

Came for menu del día for 16euro! Very nice atmosphere with quality of food! Very fast and nice service. One of the vest menu del día en Madrid. 🍽Arbias, Dirada, Tarta de queso
