Good Madrid paella places (keep in mind that paellas are like BBQs and part of the charm is being in someone’s back yard etc. etc.). But, these are some of the more well-respected paella spots in Madrid
- Marina Ventura
- Socarratt is more of a quick lunch place, where they’re constantly making big paellas and serve them for you
- Antigua Casa de la Paella (currently closed - may reopen after COVID)
