My wife and I went here on our last night in Madrid to try and leave on a high note. Not the case. We ate in the cellar which was the one and only cool thing about the dinner. Due to the mixed reviews on Trip Advisor we were a little unsure but figured it had to be great if... More

This restaurant is my favorite place to dine at in the world and I have travelled alot. The atmosphere is lovely and the food speaks for itself and the price is also rather reasonable. I would recommend the Botin salad and the filet mignon followed by the cream caramel.

We made a visit to the Restaurant Botin and although it was an enjoyable experience I felt that the service was rushed and they were keen to clear the table to get the next guests in.

We went to Restaurante Botin looking forward to the experience of dining in the 'World's Oldest Restaurant' but without high expectations for the food (as we'd been told and read on reviews that it wasn't great)....wow, were we wrong!

This restaurant has been in business since 1725. It carries a lot of Madrid history. It is located just off Plaza Mayor. The specialties are the "suckling pig and roasted lamb" they are roast in the same original stone oven from 1725. A must if you visit Madrid.

We made a reservation at Botin way in advance so we were able to eat in the cellar. The atmosphere was terrific and all the food was great. As in most Spanish restaurants we overordered. We ordered the salmon appetizer which was a huge plate of smoked salmon that was too die for. Unfortunately it was way too much for... More

We made our booking on line 2 months before we arrived in Madrid. I was a bit iffy receiving confirmation from an external booking agency but it was fine. The restaurant opens at 8 and it was totally booked out, which happens most days we are told. Being the oldest restaraunt in the world we went purely to say we... More

Good food at reasonable prices, English menu available. We would recommend this restaurant.

Oldest retaurant in the world! Mixed reviews so I wasn't sure whether I'd like it. But I had a great dinner, despite being on my own. I got there at 10 and was seated downstairs which had great atmosphere. Admittedly most people were not locals, but in a matter of minutes I was chatting to the tables around, all who... More
