Maybe one of my favorite restaurants ever! This place is delicious if you manage to squeeze your way in. If you can make reservations I highly recommend doing so. They have a bar area you can stand and eat at, but it's packed. We got there right as they opened and there was already no room.
They specialize in Pintxos, which are basically tapas on a slice of bread. Don't worry because they have a Spanish and English menu.
TORTILLA - The best tortilla I've ever had in Spain. Crusted well, great flavors, potatoes and eggs are out of this world.
SECRETO - Iberic Ioin of pork cooked to perfection, topped with a bit of tomato and placed on top of peppers. Great cooked pork with some great flavors.
COD - You wouldn't even know that it was cod it was so perfectly cheesy. It's served with some peppers which gave it some great flavors that cod usually lacks.
Almost 5 years later, and Juana la Loca is still my favorite spot in Madrid. Everyone that visits me is taken for at least a slice of tortilla and a glass of Txacolina, and when we can, a sit-down dinner.
Favorites: forever and always the delicious, caramelized-oniony tortilla; the mozzarella/sundried tomato/anchovy pintxo; and the cod gratin pintxo (among many, many others).
The service is still incredible and fun. My recommendation is to either make a reservation or to arrive right at opening time. Don't rule out standing and eating at the bar!
Fantastic fantastic - literally my favourite restaurant in Madrid. It gets packed so be sure to make a reservation. The tuna special was phenomenal and their Spanish omelette is spectacular and will show you how good they can be.
Very attentive and helpful staff. Arrived a few minutes "before opening" which gave us a chance to order drinks and an appetizer while we looked over the menu. All three dishes (Spanish tortilla, pork loin, and gnocchi) were absolutely delishish. Then the chocolate volcano was the perfect way to finish the me.
We visited here during a tapas tour of Madrid. We ordered our drinks and were served a light tapa. We then ordered the tortilla. It is a little fancier than your typical tortilla española, and it was delicious. Service was fantastic and I would definitely go back for a full sit-down meal.
Came for the Spanish omelette and it didn't disappoint. We were told the wait was 40min but it was more like 5min since we ate at the bar! Soooo delicious and known as the best spot in Madrid for it. Was recommended by my friend who lives there. Definitely frequented by both tourists and locals! We also got a beer to wash it down and everything totaled to 8 euro for one omelette and two beers. Yummmmm. If you can deal with the crowdedness or can come on a day that's less busy, it is definitely worth it!!

Im so glad my cousin who lived in Madrid took me to Juana La Loca in the La Latina neighborhood. La Latina is packed with bars and restaurants, one of the most popular of which is Juana La Loca.
It is a cute neighborhood gem. We went in almost 11pm and they were still packed. They call themselves a pintxo bar but the food goes above and beyond the conventional pintxo. We were seated right away despite not having a reservation.
Just had to try their tortilla de patata. We ordered
pintxos dishes were all bold and tasty in their own way, they were all still light enough to pair well with wine.
Try their famous dish the tortilla de patatas: a buttery, melt-in-the-mouth tortilla, finished with a crispy outer layer and served on top of a slice of bread.
The huevos rotos also delicious, either to share or as a ración for yourself: crispy, chewy, buttery fries topped with melting fried egg, small salty strips of jamón, salted pimientos de padrón and a shake of paprika, all served on a long plate.
It's a little pricey to dine here but a nice treat when visiting Madrid! It is CASH only. It's a small wine bar/restaurant and fills up quickly in the evenings. Fun place for a small, dark, cosy and lively, Juana La Loca is perfect for place for a taste of Madrid! Fives stars for overall dining experience!
This was my favorite restaurant in Madrid. The service was exceptional and the food was mind blowing. The pork dish had just the right amount of flavor. The risotto you could taste the truffles and it was so creamy. The dulce de leche dessert is something I never had before. It a molten caramel cake and ice cream. What is not to love. We stopped i this place when we settled in our spot. It was a welcomed refuge from the rain. I finished of the evening with a cup of chamomile tea and my friend with a beer. I would come back to Madrid just for this place.
I was in search of food after flying into Barcelona and taking the train into Madrid. Juana la Loca was highly rated and within walking distance to my AirBnb so I decided to give it a try. Like many places in Spain, the kitchen closes between lunch and dinner so we had to wait until the restaurant re-opened @ 7pm. While we waited for the kitchen to open, we had some starters to coat our stomachs. My favorite things here were the sea bass and the risotto. Oh and the lava cake. In addition to the food the waiters and host were attentive, very nice and knowledgeable about the menu. Definitely a good spot for a trip to Madrid.

My husband and I are grateful to be able to travel because of his occupation in the art world and mine in the circus. We were recommended to try several tapas places by a local woman who is studying health and nutrition. I considered her opinion very important in our exploration of the local restaurant scene.
This restaurant exceeded our taste expectations! Absolutely fantastic in presentation, textures and balance of flavors.
The waiter recommended some things we wouldn't have tried otherwise and he was spot on! Incredible fish tapas. The pictures don't don't do it justice!
We also loved our desert and I think not only was it delicious but it was presented in a simple way that made the taste a surprise. It needed a gold ribbon to let you know you were about to taste award worthy food.
This restaurant was in fact so good, I told my husband he needs to tell all of his co-workers to go there for their next trip this week.
We were concerned as one person is a vegetarian that she would not like it. I looked over the menu again and I know she won't be disappointed. There were several options for vegetarians that eat cheese. Also I would bet they would take off an anchovy or pork if necessary.
My favorite restaurant in Madrid.
Love love love!!!
Atención impecable, todo facilidades, amables y dispuestos para hacerte pasar un rato estupendo. La comida es increíble, súper original y buenísima. Lo peor, tener que elegir qué pedir y solo poder probar algunos platos, sin duda tendremos que volver porque esa carta bien lo merece. Su tortilla, el huevo trufado con chicharrón, los increibles raviolis y el flipante sandwich de atún, todos platos exquisitos.
Ya íbamos con las expectativas altas puesto que nos lo habían recomendado y sus reseñas son bastante buenas. Y efectivamente es una exquisitez, sin duda su tortilla es una de las mejores que he probado, todas sus tapas están muy buenas con bases de pan diferentes que te sumergen en una experiencia bastante agradable. Poco más que añadir mejor ir probar y disfrutar. Imprescindible el volcán de dulce de leche pedirlo nada más llegar.
Juana La Loca es, sin duda, uno de mis lugares favoritos para tomar unas copas con amigos y disfrutar de unas tapas y platos únicos. Su pincho de tortilla de patatas y cebolla confitada es una maravilla que no puedes dejar pasar, de las mejores tortillas de la ciudad. Otro plato que me sorprendió fueron sus mejillones al vapor con vino blanco y salsa de curry, una manera original de presentar unos mejillones. Finalmente, lo que más disfruté en esta visita fueron sus medallones de rabo toro, simplemente increíbles, muy tiernos y con una salsa espesa de sabor intenso.
El sitio suele estar a tope de gente y con una fila larga para acceder a su barra, por lo que recomiendo reservar mesa con antelación.
Hemos venido varias veces por su espectacular tortilla de patatas! Tienen una carta muy buena, hemos probado varias tapas y platos. Siempre nos sorprenden, totalmente recomendable! Hay delivery por si no encontráis sitio!

Llegamos a las 19:50 y ya había cola para entrar. Mucho guiri que nos tiró un poco para atrás, pero decidimos entrar igualmente. Pudimos sentarnos en barra y pedimos varios pintxos. La tortilla está de 10. Los demás pintxos que probamos estaban buenos también.
Si vas con reserva o tienes suerte de pillar sitio en barra está bien, pero había gente comiendo de pie detrás de la barra. Me pareció demasiado

El mejor pincho de tortilla de la ciudad, no es una leyenda, espectacular! El resto de tapas no se quedan cortas, el huevo trufado y el ravioli son una explosión de sabor brutal, aunque todo esta buenísimo y recomendaría todo lo que pedimos! El servicio impecable, camarero super atento y eficiente. El ambiente correcto siendo un domingo de agosto… pero esa es la magia de estos sitios, no? TENÉIS QUE IR.
Os recomiendo ir sobre las 12.45h y esperar a que abran. Pudimos entrar en cuanto abrió el local y sentarnos a comer tranquilos
El pincho de tortilla que era lo que veníamos buscando nos encantó!! Buenísimo es poco, y el "increíble huevo" es espectacular, cocina de la buena en un sitio que nadie diría lo que esconde. Sin duda un sitio para volver cuando volvamos a Madrid.
Espectacular sitio en La Latina. La recomendada tortilla es increíble y todos los platos que probamos también: buñelos de espinaca y cheddar, bruschetta de mollejas, huevos rotos y hummus.
La atención es muy buena pero hay muchísima gente todos los días a toda hora. Recomiendo ir con reserva para evitar filas y sentarse en una mesa.
Mi tortilla favorita de patatas de Madrid.
✅La comida es espectacular.
✅la carta es reducida pero de calidad.
✅Los precios son caros pero proporcionados a la materia prima y a la elaboración. Un pincho de tortilla cuesta 4,5€ y pero un sandwich de huevas cuesta 25€.
✅ si no has reservado, hay un orden en la barra.
💥 las camareros que están en la barra recomiendan los más caro 🤣🤣🤣 el resto, son ENCANTADORES y super atentos.
Siempre llevo a gente de fuera.

Acudi a este bar tan conocido de la ciudad de Madrid, situado en el centro sur de la ciudad donde tienen un pequeño establecimiento bastante emblemático de la zona. Se trata de un bar-restaurante bastante castizo, con platos típicos de la cocina española, con una gran variedad de pinchos y raciones o platos para poder degustar, además de contar con un amplio repertorio de vinos. En mi caso quería probar su famosa tortilla, por lo que pedí un pincho de esta que tenía un precio de 4,5 € y estaba muy bueno sin duda de las mejores tortillas que he probado, está era estilo Betanzos siendo muy poco cuajada y con una textura espectacular, además el sabor de la patata muy bueno que junto con una cebolla caramelizada a la perfección era muy buen bocado. Venía con un pan debajo que hacía que estuviese humedecido que lo dejaba muy bien.
