Juana La Loca (10/10)

Juana La Loca Madrid

Juana La Loca is a cool pinxos bar located in the heart of the neighborhood, La Latina.  It’s a bar that is known for their beautiful pinxos, and their delicious tortilla.  It’s always packed with people, so be patient to find yourself a space at the bar, or call ahead and make a reservation for a table.  The pinxos are significantly more expensive than a regular pinxos bar, but they are also larger and higher quality.  Here is a full review of Juana La Loca in Madrid.

Juana La Loca

Juana La Loca Madrid

  • Address: Plaza de Puerta de Moros, 4, 28005 Madrid
  • Atmosphere:  I would call this a ‘modern, upscale bar, with traditional twists’.  I would not say this place is fancy, but it’s not the type of place you throw napkins on the floor.  There is warm lighting, a beautiful counter showing the pinxos, and a lot of people.
  • Type of Food:  Pinxos and a few raciones.  The pinxos are much larger than regular pinxos, and can be easily split between two people.  HERE is the full menu.
  • What I ordered:  We ordered 3 pinxos to share- the famous tortilla de patatas, the roast beef, and the salmon.  All 3 were delicious!  We left satisfied, but certainly not full.  Our bill was 26€.
  • Recommendation:  Make a reservation to get a table, or go on an off-peak night, like a Tuesday.  Also, try the truffle risotto.

Rating: 10/10 for food and 9/10 for atmosphere (quite packed and very warm in the bar area due to the amount of people).
