La Rotonda Restaurant, Mediterranean restaurant in central Madrid, Spain
La Rotonda Restaurant is a Mediterranean eatery in central Madrid housed within the Westin Palace Hotel. A large stained glass dome ceiling dominates the dining room, casting colored light across the tables and diners.
The restaurant opened in 1912 with the Westin Palace Hotel during Spain's Silver Age of literature. It has served guests with meals for more than a century and remains part of the hotel's legacy.
The menu blends regional Spanish recipes with Mediterranean cooking methods, drawing on ingredients sourced from local markets. Diners experience flavors that reflect eating traditions practiced across different parts of Spain.
The restaurant takes reservations for lunch between 13:30 and 15:30, and dinner from 20:30 to 23:00. A smart casual dress code is in place, so visitors should dress appropriately for dining.
The Sunday brunch features multiple food stations with fresh seafood, carved meats, and pastries arranged beneath the colored glass dome. This setup transforms the weekend meal into a visually striking experience in the dining room.
