El Caldero serves the best paella in Madrid
El Caldero is a wonderful restaurant in Madrid that has been open now for more than 40 years.
While the food El Caldero serves includes everything from stuffed baby squid to stewed veal shank, grilled mullet in tomato sauce to beef loin with roast potatoes, one of the things El Caldero is known for is making the best paella in Madrid.
Not surprising really as the seafood they use in their paella is incredibly fresh (it was literally swimming yesterday), the rice is perfectly cooked and, as a pan of paella is plenty of food for two people, it’s a relatively inexpensive lunch or dinner.
Try El Caldero’s Paella Alicantina, which is served with chicken, clams, squid and prawns or the Paella de Marisco, served with crayfish, clams and king prawns.
Both are excellent and, yes, both can quite easily be said to be the best paella in Madrid.
You will find El Caldero at Calle de Las Huertas, 15, 28012 Madrid, Spain, or you can check out all their varied menus at their website.
You can also call them to make a reservation at +34 914 29 50 44, which is highly recommended if you plan on eating there during any weekend or a Spanish holiday.
