I visited Olivia Te Cuida two years ago for a coffee and was very underwhelmed by the experience, so imagine my surprise when their place kept popping up as one of the best new places to try. Their newest location is on Calle Fortuny and is attached to a beautiful hotel. People were saying it’s a great place to have lunch, and an even better place to have brunch. We decided to try it for lunch and are very much looking forward to going back for brunch. if you like light, healthy, colorful food, give Olivia Te Cuida a try.
Olivia Te Cuida – Fortuny
- Address: Calle de Fortuny, 7, 28010 Madrid
- Atmosphere: Bright, modern, bohemian, neutral
- Type of food: Fresh, light, healthy, veggie-heavy, modest serving sizes.
- What you should order: We went for lunch, when they offer a menu. The menu is 18€ per person, which is quite pricey, so we orderd one menu and one extra plate to split. If both people are going to order a drink, I recommend that both people get the menu because you get more food and it’s almost the same price. The menu is very veggie/ grain heavy, and is quite healthy, so if you are aboslutely starving, maybe this is not what you are looking for.
- Other comments: Consider making a reservation. Try their desserts or fresh juices.
- Tip: If you order the menu, try their arugula salad with blue cheese- it was delicious!
Rating: 9.5/10 for food, 10/10 for atmosphere. I loved this place, but found it to be pricier than maybe it should have been. I would go back, but not necessarily for lunch.
