StreetXo, Contemporary Asian fusion restaurant in Salamanca district, Madrid, Spain
StreetXo is a dining venue within El Corte Inglés on Calle Serrano featuring a long red counter that encircles an open kitchen. Chefs prepare dishes in plain view, making the cooking process a central part of the room.
Chef David Muñoz launched this concept after the success of his three-Michelin-starred restaurant DiverXo, also in Madrid. The two establishments represent different approaches to dining he wanted to explore.
The restaurant bypasses conventional seating and creates direct contact between cooks and diners at a counter. This setup feels like sitting at a street food stall, where conversation and observation of food preparation happen naturally.
The venue operates daily from noon until midnight and does not accept reservations. Guests should expect busy periods and be prepared for counter-style service.
The chefs hand food directly to diners across the counter rather than delivering plates to tables. This approach creates an intimate exchange where conversation flows naturally between kitchen staff and guests.
